“ Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG is NEVER RIGHT”
This quote by Russell M. Nelson, is one of many lessons he tries to teach about right and wrong. Wrong is always going to be a bad decision, it is not right to believe if you smoke, cheat, or lie it is okay because everybody is doing it. This is a dumb thing to believe because the consequences you will face are so much different than everyone else’s consequences. If you smoke because your friend did, you will probably end up in the hospital and die because the effect of the drug was different. That is why you have to think about what you are risking when you choose to do the wrong thing everybody is doing. An example I can think of is when the teacher leaves the room and you are taking a test. Everyone would start asking for the answers of the test. That is a situation you are willing to risk, rather not do what everyone else is doing or tag along. I think it is a greater test to see if you are a CTW or CTR person. If you choose to not cheat your conscience is cleaner than the ones who did. Probably you will be granted and probably you will not, the greatest gift is knowing you chose the right.
