"Well, President Monson, we got what we prayed for. Johnston's Army is gone, and so is Brigham. Persecutions are over, unless we instigate them. And we can all shop 'til we drop. The Church is a Fortune 50 juggernaut, Utah is ours to command, and Mitt waits in the wings. We won ! Now what?"

Interesting. I like the theme of "Struggling." I think that's the point of the church's teaching as much as anything else.
Thanks for reading this link, Jason. I love it when someone on the other side of the political aisle writes something that I can hold on to myself--a notion that I can adapt. While Firmage is obviously a Democrat and somebody I can relate to, he writes in a way that also made you think. Buckley and to a lesser extent, George Will have provided those moments for me. "First Things" sometimes does that as well. That we still read It's a sign the the civilized heart still flutters.
Doug, I have just finished the blood pressed into linen page. Your craft is beautifull. I am very surprised and also glad I have met someone with a genuine passion for words. I would like to read more sometime.
