The other leads to hope, comfort, peace, strength, and joy.”

“Today we see social evil, terrorism, and gross immorality throughout the world. Someone has said, “A wrong deed is right if the majority of people declare it not to be wrong.”
By this principle we can see our standards shifting

This new permissiveness is condoned by intelligent men and women,
many of whom are found in the churches.”
