"As a church we are politically neutral and have instructed our missionaries to focus on that mission and to respectfully decline any invitations to discuss politics," Trotter says.Stack explains: "The Mormon Church bans all political discussion from its pulpits and young missionaries are not allowed to read newspapers or watch television, so they may not even know the intense political debates swirling about them."
