text: Actually....I think the "credulous" have some clear responsibility, too.
  
  Turning over your adult decision making to a group of hierarchy is simply not a very adult thing to do.
  
  One can consider their opinion if one wishes or feels so inclined, but making serious personal decisions...and a presidential vote is surely one....is the responsibility, ultimately, of the "decider".
  
  What I suspect is that we have a number of "credulous" and very "unadult" members who have never truly grown up to real dependent adulthood, in a developmental sense,....hence "the bishop says" model.
  
  I'd assess it at about 15 years old and that may not be fair to teenagers.
