A couple of interesting commentaries

Recently I have been sent a couple of links to editorials by the well-know author, Orson Scott Card. I though both were extremely insightful, informative, and well-written.

The first is about the financial crisis, specifically the sub-prime mortgage mess: http://www.ldsmag.com/ideas/081017light.html

The second is about the LDS church and the members' position on Prop 8. I love his sensitivity in explaining the issue and describing the REAL meaning of "tolerance": http://mormontimes.com/mormon_voices/orson_scott_card/?id=4740
