LDS Apostle Oaks calls for coalition to defend religious rights

LDS Apostle Oaks calls for coalition to defend religious rights




I like these key phrases that Elder Oaks says on this subject. These phrases were taken from the news article.

* Religious teachings and religious organizations are valuable and important to a free society, thus "deserving of their special legal protection."

* Religious freedom "undergirds the origin and existence of this country and is the dominating civil liberty."

* The constitutional guarantee of free exercise of religion "is weakening in its effects and in public esteem."

* Such a weakening can be attributed "to the ascendancy of moral relativism."

He is right we all have a right to worship how where or what (we) may. It is the human right and religious freedom is in the Constitution of the United States. Heck even our founding fathers were christian. They belong to different churches but they were christen, because they believed in Christ and worshiped Christ in their own way.

Cheers Everyone!
