My Thoughts:Below is a background of the Founding Fathers and the kind of men they were. Much respect needs to be there for them, for they were looking after you and I, in my opinion. They were raised up for the very purpose of writing the Constitution. We must, as a nation, do all we can to preserve our Constitutional Rights and not allow the Constitution to be destroyed. America is a choice

By Marion G. Romney of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles, now deceased: The gifts named in the 7th Article of Faith are gifts of the Holy Ghost. The enjoyment of them has always been a distinctive characteristic of the Church of Jesus Christ. As a matter of fact, without the gift of revelation, which is one of the gifts of the Holy Ghost, there could be no Church of Jesus Christ. This is apparent
