Hi,
I don't want this to be an LDS bashing post, but I was thinking about some of the stuff that I was told by my LDS when I was first taking my OW, that I now know is a load of crap. It makes me laugh now.
My favorite:
"It would be foolish to go with any other agency but PADI, because a lot of places won't let you dive without a PADI card"
Others:
"Most places won't let you dive without advanced OW, so you had better register for that right away."
"You can't take any other agency course such as nitrox, because they won't accept your padi OW card - you'll have to take the SSI OW first"
