Three Feet High and Rising. Wednesday, February 4, 2009. A New Sheriff In Town? Is it my imagination or is the Church taking the gloves off in the public arena? Specifically I refer to Church PR head. Michael Otterson’s recent letter. Published in the Tribune. He has some pretty harsh words for reporter Rebecca Walsh. Walsh, a few days earlier,. Rather snarkily called out the Church. For its yearly pre-legislative session with lawmakers. But the response from the Church PR - now that caught my eye. Could...

Three Feet High and Rising. Saturday, November 8, 2008. Money Talks, Gay Marriage Walks. Yesterday, the LDS Church issued the following statement. It is disturbing that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is being singled out for. As part of its democratic right in a free election. While those who disagree with our position on Proposition 8 have the right to make their feelings known, it is wrong to target the Church and its sacred places of worship for being part of the democratic process.

Meeting and listening to Richard Bushman was probably the highlight of the lot. I have read Rough Stone Rolling. One of the first things B...
