There would be no friendships created, only slaves to the Spirit. That is not God's plan.

Interesting choice of words. I wonder if by slave you are implying "force"? That doesnt seem to follow the gospel as I understand it. This must be why you said "That is not God's plan". We are to be one in Christ as He is one with the Father...personally I believe that is a choice to observe the direction and guidance of the spirit.

As for Home Teaching. It is a program that is ran according to assignment. It may be directed through inspiration. It might not. It is not a calling given through the organization of the LDS church. However, an individual may receive the assignment as a calling per the direction of the spirit.
