"It was seldom that I attended any religious meetings, as my parents had not much faith in and were never so unfortunate as to unite themselves with any of the religious sects"
- Orson Pratt
About this Quote
This quote by Orson Pratt suggests that his moms and dads did not have a strong belief in faith and did not come from any religious sect. This likely meant that Orson did not participate in spiritual conferences very frequently, as his parents were not actively involved in any spiritual community. This might have been due to an absence of faith in religious beliefs, or perhaps due to the fact that they did not discover a spiritual sect that resonated with them. It is possible that Orson's moms and dads were not opposed to religion, but merely did not find a spiritual group that they felt linked to. This could have been a source of frustration for them, as they were unable to discover a spiritual neighborhood that they felt was ideal for them. Eventually, this quote recommends that Orson's moms and dads did not have a strong faith in religion, and were not actively associated with any spiritual sect.
