"The Volume of Sacred Law provides instruction to preserve and protect the landmarks of our Fathers. A landmark identifies a familiar location or an object of remembrance that enable a traveler to return to it should they become lost along the way. If one was to remove that landmark, then the traveler in need of a point of reference will be deprived of its instructional value."
