I might note that Elder Christofferson is a lawyer, trained at Duke University.

And he’s not alone in his view.  Here’s a piece from David French (J.D., Harvard)

“The American Church Needs to Get Serious About Religious Liberty, Now”

“‘I wish it need not have happened in my time,’ said Frodo.

“‘So do I,’ said Gandalf, ‘and so do all who live to see such times.  But that is not for them to decide.  All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.'”

J. R. R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
