Re: Gun Control
I have read and very much appreciated the reasoned, measured and compassionate response by Steve. Your focused appeal to Book of Mormon principles has been helpful in processing my feelings, as did the entirely appropriate response from the church to this horrific act.

Re: Gun Control
splenetic vitriol - unbecoming. "...it will do absolutely nothing but cause the Huntington family to dig their heels in deeper in defense of "gun rights". or even worse, that this was somehow "God's plan". How absolutely sickening." This does not in any way characterize...

Re: Socialism
This remarkable series of talks was delivered at a very turbulent time - the sixties. I have lived long enough to see that turbulence currently being eclipsed.

Re: Board Games vs. Parlor Games
Actually, many of the parlor games we play can be successful by diminishing the competitive element. When we play, "in the manner of the word", we are not playing for points or to "best" some other person or team, although I guess you could make a claim that the object is to &quo...
