…mium for the Jewish state: It is, for its region in particular, a model of Western values, a country in possession of a robustly independent judiciary; a boisterous, appropriately unkempt press; a mature and activist civil society; and an assortment of fearless and effective human rights organizations.

America, the Mythical: “Mother of Exiles” or Denier of Safe Haven?

By Ed Simon

…England were arguably among the most educated people in the history of the western world. Drawn from an upwardly mobile yeoman class, and populated by ministers, scholars, and merchants, they were some of the most unlikely candidates to forge a new civilization in the frontier wilderness.

The result has been the most momentous, and contentious, meeting of bishops in the 50 years since the Second Vatican Council, which brought the church into the modern era.

…es at Europe and America on the stereotyping of minorities and the need to promote diversity. This issue is not a simple matter of faith versus speech. It is also faith via speech, and here secularists and believers converge on what is fundamentally sacred: the freedom of the individual conscience. As I put it in a statement on the floor of the Council last fall, “every religion begins with a prophet or teacher who speaks the truth as his or her c…

Most of these objects have their roots in legend, but they al…

By Benjamin E. Park

…d more validity to Sanders’s continued campaign, especially going into the western states’ primaries where he is expected to demonstrate the appeal of his national movement. “Charting the progressive components of the Mormon Church’s founding decades not only displays a road not taken, but also potential tools to construct future roads not yet realized.” It also validates a lingering progressive strain within the Mormon tradition. The Church of Je…
