“The bible should be accepted for what it is- a divine
message of inspiration and hope to struggling humanity.”
“The purpose of living is to grow in wisdom and goodness,
and this growth is possible only because God gives man freedom to choose.”
“When one contemplates how different our understanding of
religion must be from the Creator's omniscience, one realizes that nothing but
growth, reinterpretation and generally widening horizons is appropriate in
fields of religion. If we interpret the world precisely as the Prophet Joseph
did, we are entirely unworthy of his tremendous precedent-breaking example. The
Church, from its top-most councils to the man on the street, is at its best
when it is undergoing thoughtful change. 'Fundamental Principles' are never
well enough understood by mortal man that they can't be said better.” – from Mormon
