The 18/19yr olds on their two year mission have always been intriguing to me. They are young and impressionable and are doing what they think is right. It reminds me of when I was that age and went to college and slowly started to shed some of the 'indoctrination' that I'd been given as a teenager. Every time they have come to my door it has been with an offer to help with whatever I needed help with, not to read me stories about magic underwear, so they must get exposed to a lot. I wonder what the rate is of those who leave the church shortly after their mission period is up (akin to the Amish after they've had their year in regular society). Well, I think rites of passage in general intrigue me, and this is definitely one for young mormans.
