• Commentary: Many Mormons have forgotten that evolution isn’t a Satanic heresy

  16-12-2017 23:11
  As a Mormon with formal training in Hebrew, science and history, I have felt dismayed by recent discussions on Utah science standards. While many seem aware of general opposition to atheistic evolution in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or even Joseph Fielding Smith’s young-earth creationism, far fewer Mormons seem aware of the other side of those in-house arguments or know that the church’s official position today is neutrality.Indeed, some seem to be doing just what

Her flaxen hair was trimmed and bagged, her toenails clipped and kept, her bodily fluids collected. Everything was destined for a biorepository in the Washington suburbs that holds similar samples from more than 3,000 other purebred golden retrievers from across the country.

• Letter: Medicare and Social Security are not entitlements

  16-12-2017 22:05
  We need to change the term used for Social Security and Medicare. They are not “entitlements.” Entitlement suggests a benefit that is given without merit. Excuse me. I have paid for my Social Security throughout my working life. My Social Security is taxed, and my Medicare payment is subtracted from my Social Security check each month.A provision in the Senate’s tax bill that Medicare recipients will no longer have cancer treatments paid for by Medicare is a breech of contract.
