The reason I'm asking this question is because I was at a Stake Conference a couple years back that had Elder Bednar speaking in it. This was in the Orem University 3rd Stake. At one point during his talk, he said "Sisters, you're not looking to marry a return missionary." I'm sure many eyebrows(mine included) were raised at that point. He then went on to say that Sisters should be looking for a guy who's overall strong in the church and that some boys go on missions, but never become missionaries. He also said that the classic "I had a revelation that we should get married" trick that some guys like to pull is unrighteous dominion.
If the problem of apostate missionaries or RMs is so big that an Apostle is outright telling Sisters not to just look for an RM, then why is there still the big push to marry "an RM?"
