Deseret News | The soul of society must not be outsourced @DeseretNews | Uploaded March 2021 | Updated October 2024, 18 hours ago.
Subcontracting the soul of the nation simply doesn’t work. Sadly, there is a lot of motion and mounds of money spent on government-driven or market-managed solutions for morality in America.
On March 8, 1983, then President Ronald Reagan said, “The struggle now going on for the world will never be decided by bombs or rockets, by armies or military might. The real crisis we face today is a spiritual one; at its root, it is a test of moral will and faith.” Reagan’s call to the nation was for “we the people” to “be the people” who would safeguard, cherish and foster the soul of the nation now and for generations to come.
The soul of our society has, from the beginning of the country, been the shared project of the American people.
