Kate Holbrook, PhD (1972–2022) was a leading voice in the study of Latter-day Saintwomen and Latter-day Saint foodways. As managing historian of women's history atthe Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints history department, she wrote, studied,and interpreted history full-time. Her major research interests were religion, gender,and food. Her primary professional activity was to discover, encourage, and celebratewomen's flourishing in the scholarly and spiritual realms. A popular public speaker, Kate was voted Harvard College's Teaching Fellow of theYear for her work as head teaching fellow in a course that enrolled nearly six hundredstudents, and she co-edited Global Values 101: A Short Course (Beacon Press, 2006),based on that class. In 2012, Kate co-organized a conference entitled “Women and theLDS Church: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives.” She and her co-organizer,Matthew Bowman, edited a collection of essays that sprang from this conferenceentitled Women and Mormonism: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives. Kate hasalso published essays and book chapters about Latter-day Saint women andhousework, Nation of Islam Muslims, Latter-day Saints and food, religion andsexuality, and religious hunting rituals. Kate grew up at the feet of the Rocky Mountains and returned there in 2006, to liveamong the historic sites, cultural currents, and food environments where herscholarship had its roots. She earned a BA in English and Russian literature fromBrigham Young University, an MTS from Harvard Divinity School, and a PhD inReligious Studies from Boston University. For her dissertation work on Latter-day Saintand Nation of Islam foodways, she was the first recipient of the Eccles Fellowship inMormon Studies at the University of Utah. She was proud wife (to Samuel Brown) andmother (to Amelia, Lucia, and Persephone Holbrook-Brown). Kate and her family developed this endowment together. It was Kate's wish as shedeparted mortality that these funds serve to help the women of the Church to flourish in their scholarly and spiritual lives. Kate herself benefited from a similar gift (fromRuth Silver of Denver, Colorado) early in her scholarly career, when she and Sam hadminimal financial resources, and she needed time and money to devote to the study ofwomen and religion. She hoped that such giving would become more and morecommon over time. The post Maxwell Institute Podcast #148: The Weight of Legacy, with Kate Holbrook appeared first on Neal A.

The delta variant of COVID-19 is surging across the country, with nearly half of all Americans still not fully vaccinated. As the enduring pandemic once again grows dire, Utah hospitals have been overwhelmed with mostly unvaccinated patients battling the disease. The new emergency prompted the top leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to issue yet another, even more forceful, message last week to members to wear masks and get vaccinated. Dr. Samuel Brown is witnessing the pandemic's devastating toll up close, and all too personally, as an intensive care unit physician-scientist at Intermountain Medical Center in Murray. Brown, who doubles as a religious historian, is also the author of a new book, “Where the Soul Hungers: One Doctor's Journey From Atheism to Faith.” On this week's show, he talks about his experiences treating COVID-19, his thoughts about fellow Latter-day Saints who choose not to wear masks or be vaccinated, and how the pandemic has affected his faith.

Samuel Brown lives the life of a physician-scientist whose life journey has brought him step by step and new experience by new experience from rebellion, rationalism, and atheism to a place where, as he says, "[that] we might make sense of our thinking within a world charged by the presence of God." He is not naturally social or comfortable with others but through the decades has come to appreciate the importance of community bonded through commitment to a shared path, open-hearted sharing, and service, as well as the people themselves. But it is a forty-year story that brings him to where he is now: "all in." Sam shares this story in a new book of essays, Where the Soul Hungers: One Doctor's Journey from Atheism to Faith, (Neal A Maxwell Center and Deseret Book, 2021), which he discusses here with LDF host Dan Wotherspoon. In it, they discuss the arc of Sam's life, as well as many interesting takes he has arrived at through his medical and also gospel studies (leaving many more un-noted here but in the book). Among the things he speaks on his why how we frame things is more important than the questions we ask, if there is more to learn from the story of Solomon's wisdom and judgment in the case of the contested baby, from David and Goliath, from baking bread, from ritual and empowering our senses to take us to wonderful views and understanding.

Why are profit incentives needed for a well-functioning society as opposed to trying to legislate this as an intended outcome?

Finance & Fury Podcast

Welcome to Finance and Fury, the Furious Friday edition. In this episode, I want to look at a core concept of economics – the need for monetisation/value of objects for them to exist – that is – that profits are a factor that help to maximise most outcomes in society This comes back to the very concept of a free market versus socialism – Profits or placing value on things is often pointed to as an evil of the free market – there are some merits to this – especially when looking specifically how the modern financial system is structured The financial systems quest for never ending profits has created a lot of risk – leading to economic ruin when bubbles pop This can often be conflated to include the profit drive of a sole trader, or someone who owns a small business – hence all drives for profit can be painted as selfish or evil However - in this episode I want to argue the opposite point – that profits or monetization is the very key to a functioning society – and often leads to the best and most ethical outcome – when compared to those taking equality of outcome as an ethical standing in modern society This focus will be mainly on the free market side – not the centrally planned side to the economy – such as banking/lending – or BIS economic policies But it will be focused on incentives – as profits or earning an income provide an incentive to humanity to strive for more To start with – we will look at the recent PETA protests at the Melbourne Cup For those outside of Australia – we have a major race every year – called the race that stops a nation – Happens on the first Tuesday of November every year – so this happened last week by the time this comes out At this event – there were protestors – advocating against the horse racing industry – saying that it was cruel You might think that it is cruel – racing horses – if a horse breaks a leg – it often has to be put down But in relation to horses - Think about how far we have come as a society – What did horses used to be used for? – they were an essential part of most every day activities - Transportation – they were used to get around – either for wealthy individuals – or for merchants for transportation of goods from village to village – could carry carts and many times the number of goods a person could Force multiplier in production/agriculture – they could be used to lift heavy items – in construction through pully systems or for ploughing a field – at a much quicker pace than what we are able to War – one of the major forgotten points in history – horses were a major tool in warfare – where if you didn’t have cavalry – and your opponent did – you were at a massive disadvantage Horses were essential – they helped to maximise utility – in other words – they helped the value maximisation that could occur – both at the individual or industry level – which increased economic output and the utility of society For transportation – they could get your around quicker than walking – hence they save time – maximising utility When used in industry or in agriculture – they could help to lift heavy items, work ploughs on the field – much better than what humans could do In war – they were a force multiplier – much better to have mobility on calvary for flanking, or charging to break an enemy, as well as inflicting casualties on the route – so they maximised the utility of the rulers in their probabilities of winning a battle in the medieval periods – the Mongols were the best example of this – able to conquer all the way into modern day Europe – around Prague on the back of a horse – didn’t matter if they were outnumbered – horses certainly maximised their utility – ironically provided one of the sources for their demise as well with the fermented (i.e. alcoholic) horse milk – but even in WW1 cavalry was still used but what happened? Industrialisation happened – by industrialists in the quest for profits – previously – being a horse breeder – or horse merchant was quite a profitable trade – demand and supply – there was often a massive demand for horses – whilst their supply was in limited supply – so they were often well cared for – a farmer could only normally afford one horse – hence they took great care of the animal However - Individuals over time came up with innovations to make horses obsolete from the activities that they used to provide additional value to the owner Transportation – James Watt help to industrialise the stream engine – used in trains for mass cross country transportation, Samuel Brown in 1823 helped to invent the first internal combustion engine, later redesigned by many – then provided on mass by Henry Fords Model T by the early 1900s. For industry – there have been many individuals and companies that have come up along the way – all enterprising individuals – in search for profits - to get us to where we are today No different to the horse breeders or merchants of the past – where they would increase the stock of horses in an effort to profit – hence they help to increase the supply of horses – helping the growth of economic output to occur – not just to them through profits – but those that could buy a horse to help them in their own efforts – transportation, farming, in industry, or even war – as conquest by rulers used to be a useful means of wealth accumulation But at every stage of innovation – horses got left behind – something more profitable came along Riding a horse into a row of soldiers, or riding on horseback to go from city to city might sound antiquated when compared to today’s standards – but it was for profit and through innovation that horses were no longer needed for these tasks So in a way – if you view it from PETAs point of view – innovation and the aims of profit maximisation helped to save many horses from dying in war - or going lame in the fields But what happened to the horse population over the years – well it declined So out of all of these innovations that have replaced horses – what did this lead to? Less horses – They are now used mainly in recreation – i.e. riding them for leisure or for sporting events – like the Melbourne cup The question is - what happens if racing events cease? – say protestors get their way – that horse racing events cease world wide – what happens to horses? Their populations go down – those horses that are now currently prized – in other words – valued to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars to many millions of dollars – no longer have this value attached to them If this value gets removed - then again, what happens to these animals? They are not likely to be cared for as well as they currently are - The real world is not black and white – there are pros and cons to everything – This is where only focusing on a pro can often lead to major cons – if the aim is to save the lives of horses – and the method is to ban horse racing – then are these PETA protestors going to buy these horses once they can no longer race? or at the very least take care of them on an ongoing basis? Adopting a greyhound is much easier than adopting a horse Would they have the resources to do so? And would this lead to a better or worse life of these horses? In addition – would the worlds population of horses continue to decline It is sad when a horse is put down – but again – life is not black and white – we see one horse put down each year in a row at the Melbourne cup – but would any of these horses have a life unless they were there to race? These horses have a pretty good life – and are well taken care of - here the argument can come in that humans are forcing horses to race – against their will – this is a point I have no idea on – We cannot communicate with a horse – to ask it what it would like to do – from my personal experiences with horses – they get a little antsy when they are confined and like to get out for a run – whether this is the same as being raced professionally – I have no idea – I cannot talk to horses – but they do get well cared for This is where due to horses having a monetary value attached to them for the most part – especially for racing horses – these racing horses sell for millions of dollars – the most expensive horse sold for around $100m AUD – or about $70m USD – is a little different for domestic horses – kept for pleasure Thinking about another example – what has been the most successful strategy for the conservation of rare/endangered species? The answer is - Hunting in game reserves – through the monetisation of these animals – creates incentives – and at the core concept of economics – it is all about incentives – humans do little without incentives Through the monetisation of protecting these animals – for others to hunt – it actually allows the reinvestment of funds – where the Profits go into the conservation Due to a monetary value being placed on these animals – people are incentivised to take care of them – protect them from illegal poachers – and help to increase their numbers This system helps with population management as well – There was the case with Cecil the lion – through the anthropomorphism – putting human traits into animals through Disney movies – people feel sorry for the lion being shot – but this lion in question was past breeding age – and was killing younger males – so if the question is to help maximise the population – is it not best that this animal that is nearing the end of its life – that killed two male cubs that would go on and help to increase the population – be removed from the population? It might sound harsh – but the meat from the lion went to feed the local African population – the money went back into the preservation of these animals - Again - It might sound callus or harsh – but it is reality – for policy to work – or for any decision to be made- it needs to be based around reality – just not hopeful or wishful thinking We could all come up with how we want the world to work – in wishful thinking – but reality is harsh – Hence – the free market often does come up with optimal solution – these are by no means perfect – but optimal is far from perfect – it is simply the best solution to hard problems If the government was to legislate that these animals are protected – by law – they are protected from being killed – does this mean that their populations would increase and that nobody would kill them? From observations – it doesn’t – poachers are operating outside of the law – hence they don’t care what the government says – their incentives are to kill the animal regardless – it is the same for anything that is made illegal by governments – if people want it – they can often get it through black markets Under this situation - The only way to protect these animals is have the government try to enforce these laws – however they often lack the flexibility and ability to do this – especially in a lot of African nations – so the poachers run rife and the policy is not enforceable But all of a sudden – if individuals or companies can monetize these animals – through having them on game reserves – for tourists to come and see and once these animals get too old to breed and become a danger to the other population of animals – they can sell a ticket for hunters – then the populations of these animals actually increase – through the incentives of those in charge of the game reserves to protect these animals as well as take care of the population management – i.e. taking out the non-breeding males who kill younger cubs due to territorial issues Is this moral – well many people will say that it isn’t – but does it work? As far as maximising the populations – well it technically does Might not like it – but the economics and incentives of these policies creates a situation where the free market can often provide the optimal solution – through incentives Trying to legislate these issues through a lens of morality can lead to a much worse outcome – say you ban horse racing, or you ban hunting – it leads to unintended outcomes There are always Orders of consequences – the first might sound great – that you ban horse racing – or hunting lions – mission accomplished – but the second order of consequences let alone the 10th may see the populations decline massively – so if the intent is to save these animals – well these bits of legislation would fail massively – as it would result in a declining population – but at least those who forced the issue could feel good about themselves, right? In my view - the Outcome surrounding a lot of these issues is more important than the positions of morality that a lot of these groups propose – as by making a policy based around a moral argument – this can lead to an immoral outcome – in other words less horses or animals – when compared to their positions of having these animals be set free – where they may actually face a worse death and their populations decline Decisions not based on morality can often lead to bad results – especially around equality – you have too look at outcomes from a lens of incentives – otherwise the intent can lead to worse outcomes – Don’t get me wrong - Being ethical should be applauded – but a lot of these polices should stop at home – You shouldn’t try and force morality on society – this is what dictators do – as everyone’s morality is different We are all different – what is moral for one person is immoral to another – The WEFs morality is to control all economic interactions – the UNs morality it to help reduce CO2 emissions – but the most effective method of this would be to reduce the worlds population They have the policy of global immigration from third would nations to first would nations – but under this the CO2 emissions PP would increase by 10 times per person – so they technically hold contradictory policies Increasing immigration whilst at the some time they want to reduce the CO2 emissions per person So in summary - who’s morality do we work with? Yours, mine, PETA’s? Following each will have an effect – and maybe not the best effect on society – or on the horse population The answer is to follow incentives – which can often lead to optimal solutions Or alternatively – if you are trying to enforce morality – try leading with incentives – this is not the same as disincentives – the government gets this confused – punishing people doesn’t work as well as allowing people to help maximise their own utility Thank you for listening to today's episode.

How founder Joseph Smith may have translated the Book of Mormon | Episode 151

The Salt Lake Tribune's Mormon Land

Early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe the ability to translate was one of the spiritual gifts mentioned in the New Testament. Church founder Joseph Smith said he translated the faith’s signature scripture, the Book of Mormon, “by the gift and power of God” from ancient writings found on gold plates. So, if Smith used this gift to translate the Book of Mormon, as he asserted, how might he have done it? Was there more to this mystical process? What role might a so-called seer stone have played? And what should members and outsiders alike keep in mind when considering the birthing of this global religion’s foundational text? Latter-day Saint physician Samuel Brown, a religious historian and author of the recently released “Joseph Smith’s Translation: The Words and Worlds of Early Mormonism," addresses those questions and more on this week’s podcast.

Enjoy the feast and prepare to be challenged in all kinds of good ways. Often, the conversation takes unanticipated turns toward the realm of experience “beyond thought.” Brown and Givens touch on the conversion experience that compelled Brown to leave the atheism of his youth behind, on the nature of beauty and its place in our spiritual lives, on embodied spiritual practices, on kin identity vs. category identity and more. Sam lays out in his own unique, disarmingly honest way his own discipleship and challenges.SAMUEL M.

431: Mormons Encountering Death, Part 2

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 6, 2017 75:06

“People tend to die the way they’ve lived.” So say two of the guests from different segments of this podcast. Both Dr. Samuel Brown, a medical school professor and doctor who specializes in intensive care medicine, and Philip McLemore, a longtime hospice chaplain, have experienced the deaths of many patients and clients, and have been with them and their families in the days and months leading to their passing. Stephen Carter, has edited a newly published book of essays, stories, plays, and poetry by Mormons reflecting on various aspects of death and the dying process titled Moth and Rust: Mormon Encounters with Death (Signature Books, 2017). In this three-part episode, each of them shares his experiences and wisdom related to the mystery of death, the elements that typically come together well when someone’s passing might be labeled a “good” or “holy” death, how interactions between those dying and their families and loved ones can affect the experience of someone’s moving on as well as for the grieving processes that follow, and much more. In Part 1, Stephen reflects on his experiences and meditations over the past two years of gathering and preparing for publication the various writings that make up Moth and Rust. He is especially alerted to how this book is quite different than most writings about death within Mormon culture and publishing, as these others seem to focus on death as part of the “big picture,” the ongoing story of the Plan of Salvation, on eternal life and what lies ahead. They typically focus on answers and assurances to those facing their own deaths or those of loved ones. Moth and Rustseparates itself from these by featuring short accounts of various aspects of death and dying without much theoretical overlay. In it you’ll find pieces that show Mormons facing deaths of all kinds, including that of infants and children. About Latter-day Saints sharing both assurance and confusion about communion across the veil. Of them learning about themselves and their highest values from encounters with death. About God and suffering. And more! (The book has 46 entries!) Part 2, featuring Sam Brown, focuses first on his work as a historian studying early nineteenth-century and Mormon death culture and the high prevalence of death during this time period and how it affected daily and religious lives and thinking. People during this time period were far more familiar with death up close than we now are because of medical technology and understandings that extend life, but also because of the rise of the funeral industry which has led to the outsourcing of care for the body and preparation for burial, things that were once managed within the home. It then turns to Dr. Brown’s experiences with patients who are very sick and often facing imminent death, including how this work has affected his own personal views of death and dying, as well as his spiritual life. Part 3 features stories and reflections from Phil McLemore’s work as a hospice chaplain in Utah, working with mostly Mormon clients and their families. In what ways does Mormonism both sometimes comfort but also complicate things as someone faces death? He and Stephen speak passionately about LDS culture (and wider Western, capitalist culture) and its role in sometimes hiding from thought processes and failing to communicate well the importance of someone’s doing within their lifetime (or in the final months prior to death) the kinds of “inner” or spiritual work that is often a big factor in someone’s peaceful transition from mortality to immortality. As with Sam in Part 2, this third segment also spends a good amount of time on what factors, should time and faculties and conscious awareness be granted to the person who is in the dying process, can and do contribute to a “good” death. This is a terrific series of conversations that can lead to a greater appreciation for life through its focusing as early as we can and regularly on this difficult to talk about subject that is also a very important aspect of life.

As Richard Bushman mentions in this podcast episode, one of the very first things Joseph Smith did in announcing himself to the world was to take on the title of "translator." What an audacious thing, especially as Mormonism associates translation with the gift of seership, even proclaiming that "a seer is greater than a prophet" (Mosiah 8:15). Since declaring himself a translator, and yet it being apparent that he knew no ancient languages, exactly what Smith meant by "translation" has been an ongoing debate both within and without the faith. Though never a particularly settled question, it has in recent years become a topic of renewed fascination within Mormon scholarly circles, and with the release in the past 18 months of images and more information of the seerstone Smith used in translating the Book of Mormon, it has caught on as a fresh area of inquiry among non-specialists as well. In addition new angles of inquiry are emerging that examine the notion of translation far beyond the confines of Book of Mormon production. Recognizing this renewed interest and the fascination of the approaches being taken, the Utah State University religious studies program, in partnership with the Faith Matters Foundation, are convening a conference on 16 March 2017 at Utah State exploring these emerging perspectives with great energy. This episode of Mormon Matters hosts three of the conference's participants, Richard Bushman, Samuel Brown, and Philip Barlow, to tease some of the new perspectives finding some footing and why discussions like this are important and fascinating both to scholars and lay church members. The episode, of course, mentions the conference a lot, but even for someone not able to even consider attending, there are wonderful insights aplenty as host Dan Wotherspoon turned these three great thinkers loose to talk about things for which they have great passion. We think you'll love listening in, and after you do, we hope you'll add your thoughts in the comments section!

In middle Tennessee there lies a collaborative retreat for musicians and audio engineers driven by the primary instrumentation, structure, and lyrics of singer/songwriter/producer Ethan Samuel Brown. Ethan is a neofolk lyricist combining elements of traditionalist european folk and appalacian newgrass to contrive a melodic concoction of modern, unique folk music. Ethan's impressionable years were spent in his birth place of the Appalachian slag heaps in Eastern Kentucky. Ingesting nights of moonshine soaked bluegrass parties through the young eyes of sobriety, he became obsessed with studying the poems and lyrics of folk musicians and authors who experienced a similar, timeless upbringing. After jumping across the commonwealth and eventually landing on the other side of the Ohio river in Cincinnati, he embarked on a rigorous study of stringed instruments. At 18, he made the move to Nashville. Here, He studied music production under many successful industry professionals on historic Music Row. After spending a couple of years mingling through the east side of music city as an audio engineer and a concert promoter, he began pursuing a career as a solo artist, performing consistently at venues across the country. He later returned to Nashville and hand selected a core of music city professionals to back his centralized vision. Ethan is currently writing and recording his debut album in Nashville, TN at Yellow Box Sound Studios and APTKB.

In the Doctrine and Covenants, we read that it is through ordinances that "the power of godliness is manifest" (D&C 84:20). There are many ways to read this scripture, various angles to take, and all of them are fruitful. In this two-part episode, Mormon Matters host Dan Wotherspoon and panelists Samuel Brown and Brad Kramer first look at the "ritual" aspects of ordinances, the origins of and way that actions designed to take us out of the normal flow of life’s activities and consciousness and into something more purposeful and symbol-drenched can affect our ability to experience things in ways that many find empowering and enlightening (a kind of "power of godliness being manifest"). Whether speaking of secular or religious rituals, participation in them can and often does "work changes" in us. In the second part of the discussion the panel looks more closely, but also quite broadly, at the rituals we know as "ordinances," which are far more clearly designed to invoke God, our highest aspirations, and closeness and intimacy with community, as well as to create, enhance, and preserve shared memory across time and space. Ordinances are powerful also because they are so embodied, so tied to the temporal sphere and limited human form yet strive to reach across and bridge the gap with future events and eternal realms. It's a fascinating subject!
