Interesting

Mike is reading President Hinckley's book "FAITH: The Essence of True Religion" and he read me a quote from it last night.  He is quoting someone else from 1963!  Listen to this:

"We are witnessing the death of the old morality.  The established moral guidelines have been yanked from our hands...We are left floundering, in a money-motivated, sex-obsessed, big-city dominated society.  We must figure out for ourselves how to apply the traditional moral principles to the problems of our times.  Many find this burden too heavy."

Mind you this book was written in 1989.  I just can't believe that people were talking about this kind of society in the 60's.  Imagine what that guy would say today!  I'm not normally one to rant on the blog...I just thought it was interesting!
