My MP lowered the bar when he came in
in terms of requirements to be baptized for potential converts. Instead of 3 weeks abstinence for WoW issues, it was lowered to one week.
For that and other reasons, baptisms more than doubled. And the retention % was identical, meaning the church netted many more active members. Raising the bar is not always a good idea. |

Almost all Russian men drink after baptism anyway, so what's the point? Ultimately, there isn't enough priesthood for the Church to function properly in Russia, and all the MANY faithful female saints suffer as a result. |

The new MP couldn't have possibly lowered the bar, it was already ground level. |
