RIP Professor Steven Sondrup
Yesterday I learned that my former professor, Dr. Steven Sondrup, has passed away. Professor Sondrup was one of the core faculty members of the Comparative Literature program at BYU. He was a brilliant man, always studying new languages, always lighting up the minds and imaginations of his students ...

Re: Thanks to MDB Friends Past and Present
And to me as well, and you are one of the biggest reasons for that. Thank you very much for that, and for helping me to become much better informed than I would otherwise have been. I am also thankful for the technology that enabled me to see and speak to my extended family safely, via Zoom, during...

Re: Thanks to MDB Friends Past and Present
Thanksgiving in the South. It was a beautiful day today. For us, this Thanksgiving was a bit different in that one of our daughters has moved out of state, and the other one is out of the country. My mother, husband, our son, and I spent Thanksgiving together. I can’t think of anything I would have...

Re: Thanks to MDB Friends Past and Present
I have to admit to myself this place is more important to me than I've generally given it credit. I'm not sure what it is about this community, but it's the only one I've kept posting at over the years. That says something to me. Happy holidays, Kish. Happy holidays to you and yours, Some Schmo! I ...

Thanks to MDB Friends Past and Present
The Kishkumen family is enjoying a relaxing Thanksgiving holiday. We tidied up a bit so that we could relax in a more peaceful environment. We ordered a brisket dinner from our favorite restaurant, accompanied by homemade dishes Mrs. Kishkumen and I cooked together. We gorged ourselves on savory foo...

Re: A New Smear Article: Interpreter Targets Givens and Hauglid
He concludes by complaining that Givens' take, along with Hauglid's, will undermine their attempts to muddy the picture enough to make it appear Joseph's revelation might have ancient connections? My god, they want to pretend the burden is on everyone else. I love it when they complain about a lack...

Re: A New Smear Article: Interpreter Targets Givens and Hauglid
The Mopologists have always tried to define themselves by their commitment to doctrinal principles, the chief of those being the idea that the Book of Mormon is a real, authentic history.

Re: Thoughts on the Passing of Grindael
Thank you for sharing those reminiscences, Don. It helps us appreciate Johnny even more. I wish I had known him better than I did, but I feel privileged to have been among his many acquaintances.
