This statement is an LDS ‘proverb’, it has been used repeatedly by prominent leaders in relation to a persons suitability for a calling.

So, if you are experiencing marital problems your car salesman Bishop is ideally suited to guide you.

If you were born with male and female genitalia, the high level company executive acting as your stake president will consult the general handbook of instructions and probably ask for assistance up the chain of command. You can rely on the spirit of inspiration they receive.

If you are a single woman in your thirties and you masturbate once every three months, then when your Bishop recommends you attend an addiction recovery programme, you know he must be giving you good advice.

When church leaders offer up this saying, it never comes with a disclaimer, neither are their any Trustpilot reviews to fact check. Sadly, given the amount of money the church has already donated to the Boy Scouts of America ($250 m), it is evident that men have been called to the scouting programme who have abused their position under the careful watch of Bishops, whom the Lord has called, but apparently were lacking both the spirit of inspiration and knowledge to supervise young people’s safety.
