Hello everyone. I hope this isn't a question that gets asked *too* often, but...

I have a question for OSC about something he wrote in an essay. The essay was about the LDS religion, and not about books, so I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum for it. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or should I just ask here and hope I don't get flamed for off-topicness?
Thanks,
Dan

Dan,

Good question.

I don't the democratic (fiction aside) poseur stance of OSC's editorials. why argue for something you don't believe in?

Actually, if you click the little pencil-on-paper icon next to the date of your post, you can edit it straight on the original post.

It's not a poseur stance. I finally understood where he is coming from when I read A Storyteller in Zion. If you can get it through interlibrary loan (or feel like buying a book of LDS essays) I suggest you pick it up.

And, he does not always agree with republicans.

That's the great thing about living in Utah. They actually had A Storyteller in Zion at my local library.

I figured there had to be a great thing.

I couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was . . .

Ah, the days when defending Israel and not legislating from the bench are considered non-democratic. The former by tradition, the latter by logic.
