I realize that is the antithesis of the Archaea-laissez-faire-rubber-stamping-God model, but that's even more reason to suspect it might be the truth. |

And your two options are absurdly reductionist as well.

The prophet is actively aware of who is doing the heavy lifting around the world and a failure to call a minority as an Apostle isn't due to some congenital insularity disorder. |

Who said it is an entitlement? They are qualified. They aren't being called. Why? The fact that there is a 100% correlation throughout the history of the church to the calling and to one's race seems to indicate the answer may have something to do with race.

Because I will assume perhaps incorrectly that you have not actively participated in the selection process, why do you believe God "has an active role in the calling of Apostles"?
