"In memory of our God, our religion, and freedom, and our peace, our wives, and our children... And he fastened on his head-plate, and his breastplate, and his shields, and girded on his armor about his loins; and he took the pole, which had on the end thereof his rent coat, and he called it the title of liberty and he bowed himself to the earth, and he prayed mightily unto his God for the blessings of liberty to rest upon his brethren, so long as there should a band of Christians remain to possess the land... at this time, Moroni prayed that the cause of the Christians, and the freedom of the land might be favored. And when Moroni had said these words, he went forth among the people, waving the rent part of his garment in the air, that all might see the writing which he had written upon the rent part, and crying with a loud voice, saying: Behold, whosoever will maintain this title upon the land, let them come forth in the strength of the Lord, and enter into a covenant that they will maintain their rights, and their religion, that the Lord God may bless them." - Alma 46: 12 - 20*

Julian said to me this morning that if she had to choose Obama for Pres. or Prop 8 failing, she'd choose Obama . Pretty insightful for a 5th grader. And I have to agree with her.
That is so true!
