LTE "False Freedom"

The Salt Lake Tribune printed my letter the other day. Of course, they never bothered to send me an acknowledgment or anything. So I wouldn't have known except the people at the BMT unit brought it to my attention when I went in today.

So here's my letter on religious freedom and the FLDS.

User comments are mostly positive.

They edited it only a tiny bit. Their slight reconstruction of the first clause in the first sentence isn't any more or less awkward than mine. And there are a couple other slight tweaks. Also, where I abbreviated FLDS in all instances, they blew one up to the full church name. Though for some reason, in defiance of common writing conventions, they left the abbreviation on the first instance and wrote the full name on the second instance.
