Mormon's and Catholics are in the same boat, they both now have religious systems that have leaders that control them, leaders who can say and supposedly take your blessing away, but I know that to be false, only God/ Christ can do that; we are warned many times in the Book of Mormon, not to trust in the Arm of Flesh. Even Brigham Young warned of a time like today, when the members would have so much confidence in its leaders, they would not seek a personal relationship with God and Christ; that has always been mans downfall, and slide into apostasy.
