PoD: Historic Conference?

Maybe, maybe not. Open thread jabberfests crowded out any serious discussion of Conference, but the Diverse Crop of New Leaders post by Devyn at Mormon Mentality gave a nice reflection on that strange list of foreign names read at the beginning of the Saturday morning session. Oh, and there's a new Relief Society President, too. Guy at Messenger & Advocate offered outstanding real-time summaries of all sessions and speakers. Photos too.

I'm a little behind, so here is a batch of fine posts from the last few days that you ought to read if you haven't already:

• A Christian by Yearning by Matt at Sunstone Blog, reprinting a classic essay by Levi Peterson (in case you don't have plans to read the book).
• King Follett and the Fundamentals of the Gospel by Jettboy at Blogger of Jared, thoughts on Mormonism's most famous sermon.
• The Book of Mormon's Contextual Vacuum by LxxLuthor at Faith-Promoting Rumor (capitals and hyphen added), a post that spurred a spirited discussion in the comments.
• ideal/idol by Amelia at X2, a reflection on one blogger's personal view of the career and motherhood issue.
