W. Cleon Skousen Quotes
Here is my creed: I believe in one God, the Creator of the universe. That he governs it by his providence. That he ought to be worshipped.

That the soul of man is immortal, and will be treated with justice in another life respecting its conduct in this. These I take to be the fundamental points in all sound religion. --Benjamin Franklin
