The amount of Utah Mormons who have no idea what the I on the mountain opposite Brigham City stands for is alarming, but sadly, not surprising.
My biggest takeaway from @BenjaminEPark talk on Mormons and Christian nationalism is that more LDS members need to be educated on how the church became a part of the religious right. It was the orchestration of a few ultra-conservative men, not ingrained in original theology.

My dad, who became a devoted birder in his retirement, passed away two weeks ago. I’m still reeling from the suddenness and shock of it, but today I signed up for this course on birding & data viz because it feels like a connection between us—a bridge between our worlds.
Binoculars to Binomials is a class about birding and data visualization. We use eBird and code in JavaScript and spend a lot of time with spreadsheets. But it was never meant to be a technical thing. At its heart, the course is about noticing, and cultivating care. 1/8
