"A while ago on this list I asked about the requirements for looking
for a marriage partner, since what I had seen in translated passages
was slim. I recently wrote to the House asking for further
information. I was disappointed that I didn't receive the
response I was hoping for, and am just wondering why they responded in
the way they did"
Dear David,
I think you need to keep in mind that the purpose of the Universal
House of Justice is not to dispense personal advice of this sort, it
is to legislate and run the affairs of the community. The internet has
increased their load of their correspondence tremendously and they can
no longer keep up. I find more and more of the friends are getting
responses such as this, and some of them with much less justification
than in your case. These are often scholars for whom Board Members and
LSAs are of absolutely no help. What they need is access to the
resources of the Research Department. In my opinion, methods need to
be devised to provide them with such access without increasing the
burden of the House of Justice itself.
warmest, Susan
