My boyfriend thinks that I am overly feminist. I hope not. I enjoy being capable and allowed to do just about anything that I want to do in today's society. I am grateful that I was born into such a time. And I love the place of honor and equality that women hold within the church within the church. This is a topic that comes up in Dr. Holzapfel's classes often. I think it is very interesting that LDS women enjoyed so much freedom and such a respec... Read More

I was recently inspired to study symbolism in the gospel. There is so much of it that is obvious, like Christ being a shepherd. But I have been pondering lately about the significance of numbers. We see numbers like 7, 40, and 12 most often, though there are other commonly found numbers in scriptures. In my research, I have had a very hard time trying to determine the significance of these numbers. I found some interesting information about the number 12, although none of it really s... Read More
