“Even as we seek to be meek and to avoid contention, we must not compromise or dilute our commitment to the truths we understand. We must not surrender our positions or our values. The gospel of Jesus Christ and the covenants we have made inevitably cast us as combatants in the eternal contest between truth and error. there is no middle ground in that contest.” MadeValuesJesusChristMiddlePositionEternalCommitmentJesus ChristErrorsCastsSurrenderCompromiseContestsCovenantMeekContentionMiddle Ground Author:Dallin H.

“There is indeed something deeply wrong with a person who lacks principles, who has no moral core. There are, likewise, certainly values that brook no compromise, and I would count among them integrity, fairness, and the avoidance of cruelty. But I have never accepted the argument that principle is compromised by judging each situation on its own merits, with due appreciation of the idiosyncrasy of human motivation and fallibility.” HumansPersonsMotivationValuesSituationMoralPrinciplesJudgingIntegrityArgumentAppreciationDuesAcceptedCoreCrueltyCompromiseMeritFairnessAvoidanceBrooksFallibilityIdiosyncrasiesNo Compromise Author:Sonia
