8: The Mormon Proposition

Thomas S. Monson:
The quote from President Monson has absolutely nothing to do with Proposition 8. It is taken from a General Conference talk given in April 2009. "I testify to you that our promised blessings are beyond measure. Though the storm clouds may gather, though the rains may pour down upon us, our knowledge of the gospel and our love of our Heavenly Father and of our Savior will comfort and sustain us and bring joy to our hearts as we walk uprightly and keep the commandments. There will be nothing in this world that can defeat us." Thomas S. Monson, April 2009, "Be of Good Cheer" The talk, entitled "Be of Good Cheer", is about how life can be difficult but through faith one can find both peace in this life and eternal salvation through God. The talk has absolutely nothing to do with same-sex marriage or Proposition 8.
