Letter: A path toward an assured 2024 presidential victory

I believe the country would embrace a Mitt Romney / Jon Huntsman presidential ticket. Both have served as State Governors. Huntsman having served both Republican and Democratic presidents as ambassador to both China and Russia. Mitt as our State Senator and Olympics Games problem solver. Both ...

Letter: Advice for advisors: Remember who speaks for God

In regard to the published (S-E, Monday, 29 Jan.) letter to the editor of advice for new Latter-day Saint Apostle Kearon, I have some advice for such self-proclaimed advisors, and others who do not understand the workings of God and the scriptures. The Bible and scriptures are of a spiritual ...

Letter: In solving homelessness, look toward the faithful

The Pew Research Center has reported the largest decline in Church attendance in American history, with forty million Americans, 12% of our republic’s population, abandoning regular church attendance since 2003. Since 2019, church attendance has fallen a percentage point a year to a mere 30%, ...

Letter: Vexed by 2024 legislative session and the money giveaway

A lot of bills already introduced in the 2024 State Legislature Session. A tax break is one the Legislators and the State is attempting to put into effect — it calls for a reduction in the State Income Tax. Keep in mind that this tax cut applies only to those of us that actually pay State ...

Letter: Why so mad about CO2? All life depends on it to survive

I could not believe what I was reading in the Opinion Page a couple mornings ago. “A reader’s urgent plea to halt sale of CO2 carbonated beverages.” What the heck? Someone actually believes that by not drinking carbonated beverages CO2 will be reduced? Are they serious? CO2 is the gas of ...

Evangelical Christians in America promote sexual morality, honesty in business dealings, criminal justice, truth-telling, oath keeping, and the saving grace of Jesus Christ. However, evangelical leaders today support a presidential candidate who has been found liable for sexual assault and ...

Letter: Please incorporate railings into community infrastructure

"This is my story, this is my song" — us old folks need rails so we can hold on. True story, hand rails that are sturdy are a must at both city and county arenas (in-doors and out-doors) so the older generation can avoid a tumble. Any place that has stairs for public use should be evaluated ...

Letter: Utah pursuing power play in hopes of netting NHL team

Many years ago, there were rumors that the New York Islanders — despite their incredible history of hoisting the Stanley Cup four straight years — would move to Kansas City unless improvements were made to their arena situation. The Oakland A's are headed to Las Vegas for precisely that ...

Letter: We need leadership in Congress, not party politics

Many evaluated the 2023 Congress as the least productive, most dysfunctional ever. We need leaders honoring their Constitutional Oaths, not players trying to score political points. Representatives returned from their vacation and promptly declared it is impossible to meet their already twice ...

Letter: Chopping off the snake’s head has had no effect

There was a great deal of euphoria on New Year’s Eve, and that day marked an end to one of Ogden’s most difficult administrations. An administration where transparency was a door mat, asking for accountability brought on the victim mentality, and truth was always subjective. Apparently, ...
