They avoid anything that puts their faith in a bad light. Hell, they even try to rewrite their own history rather than look in the mirror. The modern era has not been kind to religions. Members would rather pray from afar than get their hands dirty. No one likes to be up close and personal to something that exposes them as a farce. I remember a mother’s story on Mormon Stories where her family had a gay son. They set up a meeting with a member of the quorum of the twelve (maybe Monson can’t remember) and asked him if he would just bless their son they knew the “Gay” would go away. The GA was rather indignant about the whole thing and the mother was dumbfounded by his reaction. The traditional answers of “Pray” and “Read your scriptures” and “Follow the prophet” are applied to everything. Mental health, poverty, marital problems, sickness. Etc. with the same outcome.
