		<title>Parents are people</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a stressful time for us.  My father in law had been battling leukemia for over a year, when he suddenly took a turn for the worse.  FIL&#8217;s illness lasted a few more weeks, and he finally passed away.  This has affected the family in a number of ways; most importantly [...]]]></description>

		<title>What Happened in Nauvoo, Part 3: Polygamy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[See Part 1: Founding and Part 2: Flourishing] Any history of Nauvoo needs to give an account of the secret practice of polygamy between 1841 and 1846. In Nauvoo: A Place of Peace, a People of Promise, Glen Leonard does this in about twenty pages as part of Chapter 13, &#8220;Foes Within: The Church of [...]]]></description>

		<title>What do we mean by &#8220;families are forever&#8221;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over at my other blog, a reader posted the following question: 
On a related LDS family matter, many of us have been confronted by Mormon missionaries with a message, or even a free DVD, of “Families are Forever.” A sincere, respectful question: isn’t this motto a solution in search of a problem? That is, what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Church exempted from SLC gay rights ordinance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s interesting to note that the church is exempted from the SLC gay rights ordinance the church supported this week.   What I find most peculiar is the church&#8217;s message that the church must reserve the right for it and its subsidiaries, such as BYU, to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hope and Children</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Faith and charity get plenty of attention, but hope not so much. Pessimism, it seems, has become one of the guiding principles of modernity, reflected in the media, popular culture, and even academia. So I was surprised to find a philospher making the suggestion that children anchor our hope for progress and our conviction that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Charter for Compassion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In February, 2008, noted religious author Karen Armstrong was awarded the TED Prize, and her wish for the world was to gather a council of Christian, Muslim, Jewish, and other spiritual leaders to draw up a &#8220;Charter for Compassion.&#8221; Today, the Charter for Compassion web site was unveiled.
It&#8217;s worth a look. It also appears that [...]]]></description>

from <a href="http://wasillaalaskaby300.squarespace.com/">Bill of Wasilla</a>, who writes:  

<em>Dad is the man who lies in this flag-draped coffin. I will not say too much about him for now, except that he was a good father and that, thanks to him, and many more like him, most of them gone now, the evil dream of a man named Hitler died in flames and blood.

We buried Dad on June 2, 2007. He died on Memorial Day.</em>]]></description>
