Boyd K. Packer
Image
The priesthood holds consummate power. It can protect you from the plague of pornography-and it is a plague-if you are succumbing to its influence. If one is obedient, the priesthood can show how to break a habit and even erase an addiction. Holders of the priesthood have that authority and should employ it to combat evil influences.

Freedom is not a self-preserving gift. It has to be earned, and it has to be protected.

If prayer is to leave the public schools, let the ridicule of prayer leave also.
