Experts—Mormon and non-Mormon scholars of Mormon experience—do exist. If I wanted to get a decent sense of how Mormons relate to law and politics, I…

By David Krueger

…ous pluralism. Despite this, our students have been remarkably open to new ways of seeing the world. They have attended worship services at our local Mennonite and Methodist churches (both LGBT-friendly, I might add).

By Lauri Lebo

…far between. The New York Times builds its whole story out of a handful of phone calls and an email. But the article indicates that those who run the various nonprofits that help soldiers achieve conscientious objector status expect a floodgate of calls if Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is formally repealed.

…rning and a few at sunset. The rest I leave in trust to Allah. But 5:40 is way, way later than any of these, and I thought to myself how could I be so far off? I thought, hmm, well I better adjust my clock. I am getting up too early to coordinate between suhur, fajr and my personal Qur’an reading before a nap.
