[quote=Anonymous]Ugh. So disgusting. The worst thing about this is that the clergy privilege is maintained by the government, and the LDS church (and I assume other churches) uses its heavy influence to lobby for the privilege. Like, in Utah I can't imagine the privilege will go away since state politicians are so heavily LDS. also I saw that Elder Oaks, who is one of the top leaders of the church and a former judge, said that Bishops are supposed to use "the gift of discernment" to make sure abuse is really going on before they do anything about it. So these random guys the church picks to be in charge, who have no training in any of this, are supposed to wait until God tells them the victim isn't lying before they help the victim. It's all infuriating. [/quote]
