Courage Principles Faces

More From Thomas S. Monson

Let us have the courage to defy the consensus, the courage to stand for principle. courage, not compromise, brings the smile of god’s approval. courage becomes a living and an attractive virtue when it is regarded not only as a willingness to die manfully, but also as a determination to live decently. a moral coward is one who is afraid to do what he thinks is right because others will disapprove or laugh. remember that all men have their fears, but those who face their fears with dignity have courage as well.

Let me make it very clear: when i say compromise i do not mean capitulation. when i say compromise i definitely do not mean what jesus christ meant when he offered us to turn our other cheek to our enemies. compromise means, try to meet the other somewhere half-way. and, this can only happen if the other is willing to go half-way in order to meet you. that is the very strict line between compromise and capitulation. i'm a great believer in compromises. i do not believe in capitulation.

Science is science. science is what is. after discovery, tests, trial, if a consensus of scientists today said that the sun orbits around the earth, would we say that they're right simply because there is a consensus? no. because we know the earth orbits around the sun just as if there were a consensus that the earth is flat would we agree with them? no. so there can't be a consensus on something that hasn't been proven. this is a political movement. this whole global warming thing is a political movement.

It is said that the fear of public speaking is a fear greater than death for most people. according to psychiatrists, the fear of public speaking is caused by the fear of ostracism, the fear of standing out, the fear of criticism, the fear of ridicule, the fear of being an outcast. the fear of being different prevents most people from seeking new ways to solve their problems.
People Being Different Criticism
We fear the past, present and future. we fear the unknown, we fear not having enough, losing what we have, not having what we want. we fear what will become of us and those that we care for. we fear what others think of us and what they don't think of us. we fear, fear, fear and therefore we are controllable through the manipulation of all that we fear. the present war on terror is the war of fear. no fear, no control.
