MMS Friends

United Brethren is currently on blog sabbatical.

News sidebar

FYI, the "Mormon news feed" on the sidebar is a direct feed from Yahoo news, keyword "Mormon". There is no editorial control over it, so you might see stories that are a) irrelevant, and b) not entirely positive.

The Boston sex case is an example of the latter, but to those who think we should keep our eyes closed to such matters, I beg to differ. Let's keep this kind of stuff out in the open: sex abuse in the church (which I am confident is rare) must be confronted. See Mormon Wasp for discussion.

[On the Boston case, let's also remember one thing: innocent until proven guilty]

Cool. Stupid technical question: How did you get the newsfeed into your sidebar? What html code prompts the browser to render the feed into a list of discrete entries on the sidebar?
