I would cancel SS before I canceled priesthood and relief society.

All those who have no complaints about the church could skip the meeting and go home.
That may not work because I'm still going to go home during that hour to grab a bite to eat. If I just write him a note with everything that bothered me could I count that as attending?

Two more changes to consider:

1. Repeal the Word of Wisdom
2. Modify the law of chastity to only include a prohibition against adultery. Fornication would be allowed.

Place women in charge of administering Church Discipline. Think about the results. No egos, hidden agendas or favoritism. More consistency, and genuine Christlike love. Too good to be true.
