Criticism
Critics from outside the organization have sharply questioned some of the church's practices. Writers at an independent group blog have suggested changes to church policies they consider to be too strict, such as the prohibition of automobile use on Sabbath day by the missionary of the Church. The church, however, rejects such criticisms, based on the fact that its leaders are directly guided by God and have the authority and responsibility to create rules to protect the well-being of its members.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“Of all the cants which are canted in this canting world—though the cant of hypocrites may be the worst—the cant of criticism is the most tormenting!”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“In criticism I will be bold, and as sternly, absolutely just with friend and foe. From this purpose nothing shall turn me.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
