The Spirituality Of The Outcast In The Book Of Mormon, Todd M. Compton
The Spirituality Of The Outcast In The Book Of Mormon, Todd M. Compton
Journal of Book of Mormon Studies
In the Book of Mormon, despised outcasts, such as the Lamanites or the poor, often have a special aptitude for spirituality, and the richer, civilized, and more overtly religious Nephites are often declining in righteousness. This phenomenon, with some characteristic specific themes, such as being excluded from a religious edifice, is found in ancient and contemporary cultures and religions. This theme points up the complexity of the Book of Mormon, which is not simple cowboys-and-Indians melodrama.

Euthanasia Versus Advance Directives: New Options Facing The Terminally Ill, Michael J. Miller
Euthanasia Versus Advance Directives: New Options Facing The Terminally Ill, Michael J. Miller
Brigham Young University Prelaw Review
Many people are fearful that if they become terminally ill, they will end up on life support, trapped from malting their own decision to live or die. As a result of this fear, proponents of active euthanasia, or mercy killings, are increasing. One proponent of active euthanasia, Dr. Jack Kevorkian, has taken the idea of mercy killings to new extremes. During the past three years, he has assisted in the suicide deaths of fifteen terminally ill patients (Reuters 1993, 6[A]). Others, who believe that mercy killings are wrong, favor passive euthanasia. They believe the terminally ill should have the right …
The Origins Of Groundwater Laws In Arizona, Colorado, And Utah, Richard T. Probst
The Origins Of Groundwater Laws In Arizona, Colorado, And Utah, Richard T. Probst
Brigham Young University Prelaw Review
Water is a limited resource that cannot be replaced, and alternate sources for water are not available. In the western United States, groundwater laws vary in each state. Until recent years, these laws were often vague or non-existent. According to Sax, groundwater laws did not exist because little was known about the contribution of groundwater flow to the hydrologic cycle (1990, 372). When technology allowed man to tap underground water resources effectively, laws were written for groundwater. However, the laws governing surface water are related to groundwater laws. It was not until after World War II that most states began …
The Myth Of The Persecuted Female Healer, Jane P. Davidson
The Myth Of The Persecuted Female Healer, Jane P. Davidson
Quidditas
The idea that most women condemned as witches during the classic periods of witch persecution in Europe (between 1500 and 1700) were in actuality unlicensed healers who were suppressed by the male medical establishment arose among feminist writers, historians, and religious leaders. This idea has been around for more than twenty years now and has become a familiar strain in women's studies. It has been presented often as historically valid by scholars of both genders. The theory is that the midwife, the 'cunning woman', and the female folk herbalist were condemned as witches by male physicians in order to keep …

Nursing And Health Care Among Mormon Women: An Analysis Of The Relief Society Magazine, 1914-1930, Sarah Walker Barney
Theses and Dissertations
This descriptive study examined the nursing and health care activities of Mormon women in the pre-depression period of 1914 through 1930 through analysis of the official voice of the Relief Society, the Relief Society Magazine. Entries from the Relief Society Magazine that dealt with any nursing or health care topic were coded according to the themes they addressed. Five themes emerged: Nursing, faith, healing, women's health, children's health, and public health.
In each of the themes, the Relief Society Magazine showed that the members of the Relief Society recognized the health care problems of their communities and claimed responsibility …

Pus, Pox, Propaganda And Progress: The Compulsory Smallpox Vaccination Controversy In Utah, 1899-1901, Eric L. Bluth
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis examines the compulsory smallpox vaccination controversy in Utah, 1899-1901. It looks at the two smallpox epidemics during 1899-1901 and follows the boards of health attempts to eradicate smallpox primarily by compelling the vaccination of school children.
Dr. Theodore B. Beatty, secretary of the State Board of Health, championed the effort to vaccinate all Utahns; however, the opposition led by Charles W. Penrose, editor of the Deseret Evening News, produced anti-compulsion and vaccination information which influenced Utahns to generally oppose vaccination. Consequently, the legislature passed an anti-compulsory vaccination statute over the governor's veto to annul the courts decision …

Section 76 As Literature In The Doctrine And Covenants, William H. Brugger
Section 76 As Literature In The Doctrine And Covenants, William H. Brugger
Theses and Dissertations
This project attempts to demonstrate the value of literary approaches to the Doctrine and Covenants, using a predominantly formalistic approach. To establish a foundation, the first chapter discusses the rich literary content of the Doctrine and Covenants, providing examples of the various literary genres represented in it, such as narrative, saga, parable, and poetry. The second chapter presents portions of Section 76 that contain features characteristic of Hebrew poetry, such as figures of speech and parallelism. The third chapter analyzes ways in which Section 76's poetic dimensions are illuminated by "The Vision," a 312-line poem attributed to Joseph Smith. The …
