Re: What is your fav scripture verse?
To be serious:
There are many verses I used/cited in nonreligious teaching.There are many of them I like.
Unfortunately, there are too many I don't like. And too many about I don't like the fact that they can be part of a sacred scripture.

My favourite was D&C 128:18-22, when I was a believer. While I still love the inspirational nature of the words, I no longer adhere to parts of it's content.
