Quentin Cook

CD made for his birthday with songs of hope from WWII. Bombing of London started the day before Cook was born, so he was named after the radio announcer. When the lights go on again all over the world: title of the song. The lamps are going out all over Europe... bombing raids so black outs were instituted. Song reflected the hope that light would be restored.

Those that understand the light of Christ, the connection is clear. The light of JC allows all mankind to know good from evil. Satan tries to destroy agency. As LDS, we need to preserve light and protect our families from assult on MORALITY and RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. We need to seek light and truth, and blackout pornography. It's a weapon of MASS MORAL DESTRUCTION. Decadence... black out evil from our lives. Otherwise we will have devestating moral explosions. In the world but not of the world. FHE and scripture study are essential.

Make our homes holy places and we will be protected from evil. We should be a source of light in protecting our communities. Let your light so shine... a time of plenty and an age of doubt. Spiraling desent into EVIL. How could ye have rejected that Jesus???

Cook is optimistic. Light and truth will be preserved. Some observes believe in a global revival of faith. There is a common moral foundation that transcends differences. People are still respectful of moral values.

Opinion leaders reject an objective moral order. But the majority of people aspire to be good. Light of Christ informs their conscience. Packer taught that Light of Christ is a source of inspiriation that EVERYONE has. This is why people support morality. It's a minority that wants evil... judgement of god comes when the majority wants evil. Religious arguements must have an equal space in the public square. It benefits society because people feel accountable to god.

Honesty is a principle founded in a religious belief. (ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? THAT IS A BASIC TENENT OF JUSTICE... one of the first things that CHILDREN are able to recognize. Lying or NOT lying has nothing to do with religion. WOW. So... only people who believe in god are honest. Mother Fuckers.) ONLY RELIGION TEACHES FAITHFULNESS IN MARRIAGE VOWS.

Honesty should be value even by the faithless.

Role of religion in treating all of god's children as brothers and sisters. Religios people rescue others from abuse. The slave trade was abolished through the religious. The religious defend the institution of marriage and abolished slavery. The vast majority of LDS were opposed to slavery. JS got a revelation against slavery. It was OUR commitment to equality that underpins our beliefs. We should support people of character. All voices need to be heard in the public square.

Moral foundation of our doctorine can be a beacon light to the world. DO everything we can to presesrve light in our communities. JC is the true light of the world... prepare for Second Coming.
