"This may be
interpreted as meaning that a person who is religious is thoughtful to the
unfortunate, and has an inner spirit that prompts to deeds of kindness and to
the leading of a blameless life; who is just, truthful; who does not, as Paul
says, think more highly of himself than he ought to think; who is affectionate,
patient in tribulation, diligent, cheerful, fervent in spirit, hospitable,
merciful; and who abhors evil and cleaves to that which is good. The possession
of such a spirit and feeling is a true sign that a person is naturally
religious." (President Joseph F. Smith, Gospel Doctrine, p121)
