         BEING RELIGIOUS -- Being religious is not, in itself, a virtue.  The people who crucified the Savior were among the most ‘religious’ peoples of all time, as were those who destroyed the twin towers of World Trade Center in New York City in 2001.  Being religiously exercised is not what saves people, but rather the faithful adherence to the principles of Eternal Truth, as defined in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and participation in its essential ordinances.  Hugh Nibley has noted that “True knowledge never shuts the door on more knowledge, but zeal often does.”
