The road to redemption began with “hosanna.” As we remember the triumphal entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem, may our hearts welcome Him this Easter season.

It’s more and more clear that October 7 was for Islamic radicals what Pearl Harbor was for the Japanese—a brilliant tactical success that carried within it the seeds of catastrophic strategic failure

@moroni_memer Ulysses S. Grant was still alive in 1877 when he had the vision. He was only told not to do the work for Van Buren and Buchanan.

a 4-gm span w/ 20+ ast
a 4-gm span w/ 60% FG on 60+ FGA

Americans don’t understand just how special they are, how much light the American revolution brought into the world, and how much all the great competing revolutions of the past 300 years have been a darkness and a blight on the world that has only ever been pushed back by America’s example or American power.

The communists and Islamists and others never liberated a single soul or brought anyone out of destitution into prosperity or helped anyone turn democratic. Only America, with all its faults and fissures and self-doubt, ever did that.

I was asked several times over the past day what I thought of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. I didn’t answer because I was confused by my own reaction, by how deeply and powerfully it affected me.

I thought at first it was because he supported Israel’s existence at a time of normalized bigotry, and that’s probably part of it. But I couldn’t imagine feeling quite this strongly for most other defenders of my people’s right to exist. This went deeper.

Maybe I was sympathizing with the prevailing mood among American conservative friends over the past 24 hours. Maybe. But it felt deeper still.

It felt personal.

Which is strange, because I have no strong views or meaningful knowledge of most of the issues and culture wars Charlie took part in. America’s great debates on gun control, abortion, gender or healthcare are all mostly foreign to me. Yet I felt like I personally lost something in Charlie’s death.

And then it hit me.

Steven Pinker and many others have made this point a million times before, this essential point about America, about the American-led world, and, despite America’s obsessively discussed failings and imperfections, how infinitely better this world is than the world before America.

And Charlie, who hailed from a generation almost defined by its loss of faith in the West, became a kind of engine of renewed faith in Americanness - in the America that any Jew who knows their history can’t help but love.

My people, my own children, could live and thrive in the world Charlie believed in, the world America made, sometimes with its power but mostly by its example.

Charlie was a political pugilist. People may disagree bitterly with him on a dozen issues I scarcely understand. I can only comment on this one small thing - this very big, defining thing - that I know something about.

Charlie believed in the good that America brought to the world, believed it was still America’s fundamental story, and carried that gospel into the American culture wars with the earnestness of the evangelists of old.

May his death, like his life, raise a generation of new believers in that American promise. It isn’t fashionable to say it nowadays, but the truth isn’t always fashionable: The future happiness of humanity still, despite everything, depends on it.

@readswithravi This was written by Will Durant, not Aristotle. Durant was summarizing teachings of Aristotle and came up with this phrase.

I applaud your efforts. I was in your shoes 25 years ago. I'm highly analytical and love "proof." I began asking God and reading the Book of Mormon without any demonstrable answer.

Eventually I needed to know more than needing "proof". That's when I realized that was what faith was: trust in the Person giving the answer. And I got the answer, clear and discernable, undeniable and powerful. It didn't give an answer on everything all at once, but I still reflect back on that moment with clarity as the moment where everything changed.

Evidence outside of the Holy Ghost eventually comes, but you'll come to understand it doesn't matter as much to you as you experience deeper and deeper Spiritual witnesses. Eventually faith changes to knowledge where you no longer believe-you just know. Miracles happen, you experience things that are undeniable, and the whole world opens up to you in ways you never thought possible.

I again applaud your efforts. This path changed my life forever for the better. I hope you'll see it through to the end and you'll receive a comparable answer and life changing path.

@mjolnir080 @m3lonh3ad @JoelMCurzon @therealstandage Except the whole 6,000 years old part. That is not part of LDS beliefs.
