When Marianne Zaugg heard that Fort Collins would be the site of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ latest temple, she had one reaction:
A new Mormon temple that will begin rising in Carmel this fall will draw not only the curious, but potentially thousands of faithful pilgrims across the state. Officials with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are likely to re-draw geographic boundaries that currently send about 42,000 Mormons to temples in Chicago and Louisville, Ky.
While Mitt Romney, the leading contender for the Republican nomination for president, looks to lock up his nomination during the Super Tuesday Republican primary races, some members of the black community have concerns about Mormon literature that says "dark skinned people" are from "the seed of Cain." Yet Romney, who has said he is proud of his Mormon faith, said the doctrine in question has not been followed for years and was glad to see the change.
When Brigham Young first entered the Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847, he did so in the back of a fine, white carriage donated to the Mormon pioneer leader by a faithful follower, James Madison Flake. Young was ill and couldn't drive the rig himself, so Green Flake drove the carriage and was among those who actually heard Young say, "This is the right place."

Mitt Romney rarely talks about his faith in detail, but if he becomes the GOP presidential nominee, he will be the first Mormon to have done so, and he will be one step closer to becoming the nation's first Mormon president.
Sen. Orrin Hatch predicted President Obama's campaign team would use Mitt Romney's Mormon faith against him in the general election. Speaking to a group of GOP delegates at a campaign stop Tuesday, the six-term Republican incumbent warned, "You watch, they're going to throw the Mormon church at him like you can't believe."
My Sunday column — written before the Paul Ryan pick, but still relevant in its aftermath — argues that Mitt Romney’s understandable reluctance to talk about his Mormon faith has cut him off from what would otherwise be a very natural part of his campaign narrative, both in personal and philosophical terms. My argument runs counter to some of the arguments in Adam Gopnik’s tour d’horizon of Mormonism in a recent issue of the New Yorker, and particularly this passage:
First off, happy Father's Day to all the daddies out there! Today the Sistas are chatting with the one and only Al Fox and the love her life, soon to be hubby, Ben Carraway! Al Fox is still sharing the Gospel by using the internet for good. Al joined the LDS church 3 years ago and writes and video blogs about her journey of faith. Al is from Rochester, NY and currently lives in Utah.
