Weaponizing Dignity*?

If you have not yet heard of the Dignity Index,¹ you likely will in coming days, weeks, and months because the inaugural summit of the Dignity Index is set for October 19-20, 2025 at the Hilton Salt Lake City Center.

Their website presents as:

"Our disagreements aren’t causing the divisions in our country; it’s what we do when we disagree. The Dignity Index® scores distinct phrases along an eight-point scale from contempt to dignity. By focusing on the sound bites, not the people behind them, the Index attempts to stay true to its own animating spirit: that everyone deserves dignity."

Their invitation to take a Dignity Pledge² and to attend the inaugural summit^2a appeals to the good desires and hopes of many for a better world.

As we read their 8-point index,³ it is easy to be impressed with the sentiments expressed, but are we cognizant of the compound nature⁴ of man and all things created by man and thus, the potential for abuse of this Index? Could there be a dark side to indexing speech?

Undoubtedly, most of the co-creators, advocates, administrators, and staff⁵ of the Dignity Index are sincerely endeavoring to do good and create a better world, but the great danger of the Dignity Index will be if we pretend there is no dark use — if, in our increasingly secular world of acceptance, affirmation, and permissiveness, we are blindly led through the wide gate and down the broad way that Jesus warned of:

13 ¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it (New Testament | Matthew 7:13–14).

But what could possibly be a dark use of the Dignity Index if we are indexed to “appreciate dignity and challenge contempt”?

So much depends on the eye, ear, and integrity of a beholder. Who decides what offends dignity? What decides what manifests contempt? Who sets out the rankings and consequences?

Does the Dignity Index have any shades of a SICO⁶ (rhymes with FICO) system of control? — a Socially Indexed Credit Obedient or a Socially Indexed Credit Offender system? — a system of increasing strangulation manifesting more and more with each passing day?

And where would Christ rank on the Dignity Index from Mathew’s account (a portion of which is given here)?

13 ¶ But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
16 Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
17 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? (New Testament | Matthew 23:13 – 17)

For a visual example of this event, see The Chosen, Season 5, Episode 3 circa minutes 30:00 – 40:00. For additional text examples, see here.⁷

And what of John the Baptist or most any of the old lamenting prophets?

7 ¶ But when [John] saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: (New Testament | Matthew 3:7-8)

How soon might every call to repentance be deemed speech of contempt and offensive to dignity?

Yes, we are to view and treat all people “as born free and equal in dignity and rights,” but how far does dignity extend beyond the person if actions and philosophies corrupt truth and justice? Do we not know that social dignity / acceptance is the aspiration of the Aleister Crowley-“Do-what-thou-wilt” crowd⁸; of the NAMbLA⁹ advocacy group; of pederasts grooming boys and girls; of drag-queens entertaining children; of trans-activists in women's spaces; of trans-athletes in women's sports; of self-obsessed divas / divos pursuing gain and fame; etc., etc.  Considering the natural man¹⁰ and all the déjà vu corruptions and contortions of this world, can we not foresee the future indexing of large portions of scripture, literature, speech, opinion, protest, and exposé as contemptible and subject to censure or punishment?

Let us monitor with a keen eye where this Dignity Index is headed. Let us not allow the good intended to be weaponized against freedoms, rights, truth, and justice.

*  A current definition: "Dignity is the right of a person to be valued and respected for their own sake, and to be treated ethically. In this context, it is of significance in morality, ethics, law and politics as an extension of the Enlightenment-era concepts of inherent, inalienable rights. The term may also be used to describe personal conduct, as in "behaving with dignity". The content of contemporary dignity is derived from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948, summarized in the principle that every human being has the right to human dignity. In Article 1, it is stipulated that 'All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.[1]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dignity#:~:text=Dignity%20is%20the%20right%20of,concepts%20of%20inherent%2C%20inalienable%20rights.

"Ease Divisions.
"Prevent Violence.
"Solve Problems.
"We formed UNITE in 2018 to find ways to help ease divisions in the country. In 2021, we began developing the Dignity Index, an eight-point scale for measuring how we talk to each other when we disagree. Our faith in the Index is grounded in a few core beliefs: 
"Contempt causes division; dignity eases division.
If we put a spotlight on dignity and contempt, we will use more dignity and less contempt.
If we show Americans how they can help ease our divisions, they will jump on it.
In October 2022, we publicly introduced the Index in Utah during the mid-term elections, scoring political speeches on a weekly basis.  The Index was seen as reliable, fair, and intuitive. Voters from opposite ends of the spectrum were able to agree on scores, and the media covered the Index eagerly on TV, newspapers, and radio. In the Utah project and the response since then, we’ve identified three findings that give us confidence the Index can make a national impact: "

The State of Utah and the Feds

The authorities of Utah and of the U.S. Feds have been on global display in recent days, neither of which has inspired confidence in truth or justice. In déjà vu of Jeremiah’s two baskets of figs,¹ We The People have been served up figs so evil “they cannot be eaten, they are so evil.” So evil there were eye-witnesses cheering a public assassination. So evil the facts must not be buried to further poison the future. So evil, they must be exposed in a fire of protest and consequence. So evil, they may have brought us to the “point of no return” if we will not see and demand truth and justice.

Of course, there are “good”² figs in Utah and in the Fed, but the “good” figs, for a variety of reasons,³ have allowed the evil figs to prevail. And thus we are at this precipice. Can there yet be a “turning point” — a pivot point? Except this “Turning Point”⁴ is under intense pressure to cave to the R.I.C.E. menu⁵ and planned polarization.⁶

Utah and the entire USA is in a beyond dire state if this repeating déjà vu of

• transparent lying, deception, gas-fogging;
• secret and semi-secret combinations of:
   - drugs & weapons trafficking
   - child- & human-trafficking
   - murder and extortion,
   - war promotion and planning
   - SRA,
   - etc., etc.

is not fully and finally exposed and prosecuted without redaction.

Should we be surprised that Utah is a hub for the Balaam strategy of corrupt and conquer — the same strategy that ancient Israel fell for time after time. Why did the latter-day “Saints” get driven West in mirror of Ephraim/Joseph and Judah driven East? Because they had already begun to pollute their inheritance? And have the pollutions not increased? Think back over the past few years of all the sensational, Utah-based stories of crime and corruption. Ponder these warnings from an observant outsider:

More exposure of evil is coming  — not by polished professionals of captured Media, but by independent citizen journalists. Will Utahan’s listen and act or will the abominations in Utah continue? Here are just two of the unpolished seekers and revealers of truth and justice:

If Utah can break the combination of violence and secrecy that has been operating state-wide for decades and that is now trying to shut down the investigation of Charlie Kirk's assassination, then perhaps other states might find the courage and strength to expose and end  their own abominations.

From Cancel Culture to Consequence Culture*? Let Us Pray!

(*"Consequence Culture" from a comment by @BrianFink-kl**)

Not so long ago, athletes, teachers, police, writers, comedians, et al. al. al. were “cancelled” because they objected to compelled speech, to the enforced wearing / displaying of symbols, to the pscience¹ of inverted definitions, and to a myriad other coercive inventions. Cancelled for rejecting coercive, corrupted culture. But suddenly, with the assassination of Charlie Kirk,² it seems that debased culture reached an inevitable breaking point / “turning point” — where some of those who were intent on cancelling others via coercion are now experiencing their own “cancellations,” but not for refusing to do or say something, but for wilfully saying and doing things that manifest blatant psychopathy — revealing a character devoid of conscience and empathy.³

By initial appearances, Charlie Kirk’s assassination, seen by the world, seems to have broken the carefully managed spirit of complacency and impunity that the “power” elites have been cultivating for and about themselves for decades (actually Millennia⁴). For those who desire to see and pray for it, the Spirit of Consequence — of Justice and Judgment — is rising. Corruptions, deceptions, guns and drug running, coups, hypocrisy, murderous crimes and abominations that have been hidden, suppressed, denied, gas-fogged, patsied, and lately even lauded are crying to be exposed to all the world in fulfillment of

22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad (New Testament | Mark 4:22; Luke 8:17).

It is time for the plots and planned polarizations⁵ to be openly acknowledged, condemned, and their perpetrators and servitors prosecuted. And what more apropos place could we pray for, for the exposure to begin and explode forth from than “Happy Valley”⁶ and the entire state of UTAH; a state (like all the others) where documented crime, corruption, and abomination have gone on unimpeded for years.⁷ But why begin with Utah? you might ask. Could it be because Utah (and Idaho) have so miserably failed their promise, their mission, their witness by repeating the pattern of Ephraim and Judah — been captured by the ways of Assyria, Babylon, Balaam, and the Nicolatians,⁸ and even worse, have fallen into an abyss of secret, violent combinations⁹?

Now that the Spirit of Consequence has begun to arise, may the patsy “assassin” have the courage, strength, and protection he needs to confess his role and reveal all he knows of this crime and the many others that have been concealed. And may, even a small fraction of other insiders catch the Spirit of Consequence and come forth exposing at last the great betrayals.

Mankind never seems to learn. When a pendulum swings to an extreme, it will swing back. Let us resist our own extreme. Let us seeing see and hearing hear the realities of the conscienceless pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination by both the Right and the Left. Know this: The pursuit and protection of domination is not to free virtuous Utopians to Build Back Better for everyone. The goal of total control over all humanity (with invasive omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent technology) is to allow the “powers” and the privileged unhindered, open pursuit of iniquity and abomination without fear of exposure, censure, criticism, or resistance. No Epstein inquiries. No Diddy trials. No citizen journalists. No critical thinking or questions. Just an orgy of "Do what we will." That's why we are where we are at: cancelling / murdering those who begin to awaken to greater truth, who ask questions, who criticize, who resist compromise, who respectfully challenge rote thinking, who honor freedoms, who demand consequence for evil.

May every soul who was shocked into the reality of our hypocritical world by the assassination of Charlie Kirk, pray unceasingly that liars and evil doers will confess and repent, and if repentance is not to be found, that Consequence, being Justice and Judgment, will begin to prevail — that we can return to a Culture of Consequence for conscienceless acts.

P.S.: A description of our present world from latter-day scripture:

1 But, behold, in the last days, or in the days of the Gentiles—yea, behold all the nations of the Gentiles and also the Jews, both those who shall come upon this land and those who shall be upon other lands, yea, even upon all the lands of the earth, behold, they will be drunken with iniquity and all manner of abominations—
2 And when that day shall come they shall be visited of the Lord of Hosts, with thunder and with earthquake, and with a great noise, with storm, and with tempest, and with the flame of devouring fire.
3 And all the nations that fight against Zion [i.e., the pure in heart - D&C 97:21], and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision; yea, it shall be unto them, even as unto a hungry man which dreameth, and behold he eateth but he awaketh and his soul is empty; or like unto a thirsty man which dreameth, and behold he drinketh but he awaketh and behold he is faint, and his soul hath appetite; yea, even so shall the multitude of all the nations be that fight against Mount Zion (Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 27: 1-3).

1. Pscience is the corrupted offshoot of honorable Science. It is the inevitable consequence of man's obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination. Pscience is pseudo, psychopathic, propagandizing, plagiarizing, psy-opic, politicized, and above all, profit-obsessed, and profit-driven. This obsessive pursuit and protection by people without conscience is often enabled by naïve, trusting, or fear-filled acolytes. Pscience is a one-faith, one-dogma, heretic-fearing, self-deceiving, other-censoring system.

Intrinsic?

Yesterday, I encountered another podcaster* saying:

“The evil people are the minority. The good people are the majority ... . [T]he majority of people are actually intrinsically good. We’re not intrinsically evil.”

So these are the questions I posed to this podcaster in her comment section; (questions I also ask of all other like-minded believers in “intrinsic goodness”):

Candace, if “people are intrinsically good” (circa min. 58):

• Why are the scriptures a litany of lamentation rather than praise?

• Why did Paul say:
   14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned (New Testament | 1 Corinthians 2:14)?

• Why did Christ say:
   13 ¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
   14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it (New Testament | Matthew 7:13–14, bea)?

• What if mankind is neither intrinsically good or evil, but a potential to be tried, tested, proven, and purified through repentance and Christ's atonement according to their choices?
   10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold (Old Testament | Job 23:10).
   9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God (Old Testament | Zechariah 13:9).

• What if your assessment that The Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) “obviously was a complete act to justify those sadistic perverts to do whatever they want to do around the world” is premature and false? Students of the SPE know it did not excuse evil, but rather proved how prone we humans are to do or condone evil; how soon power corrupts us. The findings of the SPE have been observed over and over. Read “Ordinary Men.” Remember “Abu Gharib”? “My Lai”? “The Phoenix Program”? The Stanley Milgram Experiment (SME) and its derivatives in other nations? And on and on. The SPE and SME are WARNINGS, not excuses or justifications for evil. Please do not disparage a warning that every human should take to heart: a heads-up on how easily we abuse power; how easily the less powerful can be co-opted into doing or condoning evil. We are witnessing it everywhere.

• And, lastly, why document this in three gospels?
   17 And [Jesus] said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments (New Testament | Matthew 19:17; Mark 10:18; Luke 18:19)

Weaponizing “Good”?

After being referred to a podcast about “Religious Freedom,”¹ I have observed even more frequent use in other Church articles of this phrase: “except when necessary to protect health and safety,”² as in:

[Religious freedom is] the right to “exercise” or live your religion without interference from government or others, except when necessary to protect health and safety.³

SO what are the acceptable restraints, not just to religious freedom, but to all our Constitutionally enumerated rights and freedoms if the test is “when necessary to protect health and safety”? What restraint cannot be judged by control-obsessed Utopians to be necessary for "health and safety" — necessary for our own good or for the good of society or the planet? It shouldn’t be that hard to discern possibilities considering our extended exposure to the “live exercise”⁴ called COVID-19:

• Forced closure of businesses
• Forced masking
• Prohibited public gatherings (including for worship, funerals, weddings, etc.)
• Prohibited singing in public
• Forced experimental vax for employment, school, transplant, travel, gatherings, etc. etc.
• Forced quarantines and / or isolation even within households
• Threatened removal and / or destruction of pets
• Banned outdoor activities even for exercise
• Snitch lines
• Restricted medicines
• Debanking
• Prosecution for lawful protesting
• & on and on.

For those paying attention, the live exercise (escalating control) continues with the mantra "health and safety" taking center stage with a key component being the "health" of the planet. How far have and could other measures of control go for "health and safety"?

• No walking, fishing, picnicking in the woods⁵
• killing of healthy (at risk???) animals⁶
• no eating / consuming of ... (you name it: meat, sugar, candy, certain herbs, certain natural remedies, etc.)
• enforced dieting for unacceptable BMI
• govt. enforced treatment protocols for various diseases
• things one can and cannot watch, read, discuss, write about
• how, where, and how often one can travel
• 15-minute towns and cities
• what and how many animals one can own, even on a farm / ranch
• compelled retrofitting of homes to meet climate standards
• yearly, mandatory home inspections for evolving code compliance
• number of children per family
• & on and on.

Some of these items may seem unimaginable in Western society, but then who could have imagined what was done during COVID-19?

Evil is obsessed with inverting the Good and will co-opt, corrupt, or weaponize every Good that it can as the agenda to totally control or destroy the world goes on with the help of so many.

Let us never forget:

Those who would give up essential Liberty [Freedom], to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty [Freedom] nor Safety.⁷

1. I first became aware of the “health and safety” wording in limiting freedoms through a friend’s reference to this podcast:
The Uncomfortable Truth About Religious Freedom
(Connor Boyack | August 17, 2025 | Time 48:16 min.) at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7slU4-a4-M&t=566s
Subsequently, I found the same working in various other places (See footnote 2; bold emphasis added):
2. • Understanding Religious Freedom:
What do we mean when we talk about religious freedom?
At its most basic, religious freedom means the right to choose, change, declare, and act upon your faith. It includes freedom to worship but is much more than that. It’s the right to “exercise” or live your religion without interference from government or others, except when necessary to protect health and safety.
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/religious-freedom/answers-to-common-questions?lang=eng
• “12. Government cannot discriminate against religious believers. All people have a fundamental right to believe, worship, and exercise their religious beliefs as they wish, so long as it doesn’t harm the health and safety of others.”
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/religious-freedom/answers-to-common-questions?lang=eng
• Current Events and Social Discussion 1:
“While religious liberty is our first freedom, we need to focus on creating a space where everyone is free to act upon their core beliefs and values so long as they aren’t harming the health or safety of others.”
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/religious-freedom/answers-to-common-questions?lang=eng
• Understanding My Role:
    5. ...Just as the Savior allowed everyone to make their own choices, we need to seek to understand others’ beliefs and allow them to live as they believe, as long as they don’t harm the health or safety of others.
“Religious freedom is not absolute. Limits on religious activities are appropriate where necessary to protect compelling interests, such as the life, property, health, or safety of others. But such limitations should be truly necessary, rather than an excuse for abridging religious freedom.”
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/religious-freedom/religious-freedom-the-basics?lang=eng
• “Religious freedom is more than just the freedom to believe what you want. It’s also the freedom to talk about and act on your core beliefs without interference from government or others, except when necessary to protect health and safety.” https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/religious-freedom/religious-freedom?lang=eng

7. This was first used[1] by Franklin for the Pennsylvania Assembly in its "Reply to the Governor" (11 Nov. 1755)

This quote was used as a motto on the title page of An Historical Review of the Constitution and Government of Pennsylvania (1759); the book was published by Franklin; its author was Richard Jackson, but Franklin did claim responsibility for some small excerpts that were used in it. In 1775 Franklin again used this phrase in his contribution to Massachusetts Conference (Objections to Barclay’s Draft Articles of February 16.) - "They who can give up essential Liberty to obtain a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
An earlier variant by Franklin in Poor Richard's Almanack (1738): "Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power."
Many paraphrased derivatives of this have often become attributed to Franklin:
They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Those Who Sacrifice Liberty For Security Deserve Neither.
He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security.
He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither.
People willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both.
If we restrict liberty to attain security we will lose them both.
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.
He who gives up freedom for safety deserves neither.
Those who would trade in their freedom for their protection deserve neither.
Those who give up their liberty for more security neither deserve liberty nor security.

“Two Baskets of Figs”

1 THE LORD shewed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were set before the temple of the LORD, ...
2 One basket had very good figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
3 Then said the LORD unto me, What seest thou, Jeremiah? And I said, Figs; the good figs, very good; and the evil, very evil, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
(Jeremiah 24:1-3).¹

If “the line separating good and evil passes ... right through every human heart”² what happens to that line when human hearts formulate states, classes, political parties, nations, churches, NGOs, corporations, etc., etc.? Does the line not externalize through everything generated by humankind? Doesn’t history and scripture make it clear that there is always a compound and that the division is seldom 50/50?³

If we are observant, God’s word is filled with far more lamentation⁴ concerning “Israel” than praise (regardless of whether the chief tribe was Judah or Joseph/Ephraim), so why are we so suckered into silence or unmitigated defense when a basket of figs (again whether of Judah or Ephraim) claims to be good or justified or chosen or favored? What happened to “by their fruits ye shall know them”⁵? What happened to “resist not evil with evil”⁶? What generally happens to good (or even other bad) figs when evil ones have the power?

BUT is a history of victimization (some tragically real and some augmented⁷) sufficient reason to squelch every criticism? How many other tribes or groups have been the victims of genocidal agendas⁸? Does that excuse more atrocities? How specious to label a Semite as anti-semitic if s/he  criticizes a fellow Semite or rejects a militant version of Zionism⁹! How false to weaponize it against every reasoned, legitimate criticism.

Every nation, kindred, tongue, tribe, or people have their two baskets: factions of good; factions of evil. When we refuse to acknowledge the divide — the compound nature¹⁰ — we distort truth and consequence. We open ourselves to a plethora of deception about what and who is real; what and who is false; what is prophesied; what is fulfillment of prophecy.

1. Old Testament | Jeremiah 24:1-3 (Context)
   1 THE LORD shewed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were set before the temple of the LORD, after that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the carpenters and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
   2 One basket had very good figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
   3 Then said the LORD unto me, What seest thou, Jeremiah? And I said, Figs; the good figs, very good; and the evil, very evil, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.

Old Testament | Hosea 9:9-10
   9 They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
   10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved.
Old Testament | Jeremiah 29:16-17
   16 Know that thus saith the LORD of the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and of all the people that dwelleth in this city, and of your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity;
   17 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
Old Testament | Amos 4:9
   9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased, the palmerworm devoured them: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD.
5. New Testament | Matthew 7:15-20
   15 ¶ Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
   16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
   17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
   18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
   19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
   20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

10.. Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 2:11, 15-16
   11 For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, ... righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither sense nor insensibility. ...
   15 And to bring about his eternal purposes in the end of man, ... it must needs be that there was an opposition; even the forbidden fruit in opposition to the tree of life; the one being sweet and the other bitter.
   16 Wherefore, the Lord God gave unto man that he should act for himself. Wherefore, man could not act for himself save it should be that he was enticed by the one or the other.

What More Must Be Said?

Commanded: "Ye shall awake"

Books and media have been saturated with exposés of wickedness for decades, and still without consequence for most of the perpetrators. Most of us/US remain asleep to the beyond-dire situation, just as they did of old.

18 And it came to pass that they formed a secret combination, even as they of old; which combination is most abominable and wicked above all, in the sight of God;
19 For the Lord worketh not in secret combinations, neither doth he will that man should shed blood, but in all things hath forbidden it, from the beginning of man.
20 And now I, Moroni, do not write the manner of their oaths and combinations, for it hath been made known unto me that they are had among all people, and they are had among the Lamanites.
21 And they have caused the destruction of this people of whom I am now speaking, and also the destruction of the people of Nephi.
22 And whatsoever nation shall uphold such secret combinations, to get power and gain, until they shall spread over the nation, behold, they shall be destroyed; for the Lord will not suffer that the blood of his saints, which shall be shed by them, shall always cry unto him from the ground for vengeance upon them and yet he avenge them not.
23 Wherefore, O ye Gentiles, it is wisdom in God that these things should be shown unto you, that thereby ye may repent of your sins, and suffer not that these murderous combinations shall get above you, which are built up to get power and gain—and the work, yea, even the work of destruction come upon you, yea, even the sword of the justice of the Eternal God shall fall upon you, to your overthrow and destruction if ye shall suffer these things to be.
24 Wherefore, the Lord commandeth you, when ye shall see these things come among you that ye shall awake to a sense of your awful situation, because of this secret combination which shall be among you; or wo be unto it, because of the blood of them who have been slain; for they cry from the dust for vengeance upon it, and also upon those who built it up.
25 For it cometh to pass that whoso buildeth it up seeketh to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries; and it bringeth to pass the destruction of all people, for it is built up by the devil, who is the father of all lies; even that same liar who beguiled our first parents, yea, even that same liar who hath caused man to commit murder from the beginning; who hath hardened the hearts of men that they have murdered the prophets, and stoned them, and cast them out from the beginning.
26 Wherefore, I, Moroni, am commanded to write these things that evil may be done away, and that the time may come that Satan may have no power upon the hearts of the children of men, but that they may be persuaded to do good continually, that they may come unto the fountain of all righteousness and be saved.*
