Wow! A Pretty Well Researched News Article!

Believe me it doesn't happen often in the media, but to my delight, my favorite magazine The Economist did a pretty good job in a recent article:


But the last three paragraphs I was a tad bit uneasy.  I wish it were a bit more clear that Warren Jeffs is not a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (who importantly no longer practice polygamy), he is the President of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (who do continue to practice polygamy and arranged marriages which the LDS Church condemns).  But overall the article portrayed important secular as well as religious points of view.  I encourage you to check it out!
