Governments Cannot Compel Righteousness

"GOVERNMENTS cannot compel righteousness. They would need first to compel men to love righteousness, and thereby learn to practice it; but love cannot be forced. Men will not do from choice what they do not love to do; and only the power that is in the gospel can cause men to love to do right, and to hate to do wrong."
