Default Sltrib profile of Mitt Romney the religious leader

http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/lifesty...ishop.html.csp

Most of this is rehashed from other sources and profiles. But there might be some new things in here you haven't heard.

Quote:
Meeting with feminists » Mormon women in Boston still talk about an extraordinary 1993 meeting Romney called to address the women of the stake.

More than 250 members poured into the Belmont chapel. One by one they called out their issues while he stood at the front with three pads labeled: policies we can’t change, practices we can change, and things we can consider.

Nearly 100 proposals were made that day, including having female leaders give talks in various wards as the men on the high council do; letting women speak last in church; turning the chapels into day-care centers during the week; letting women stand in the circle while blessing newborn babies; recognizing the accomplishment of young women as the church does of Boy Scout advancements; and putting changing tables in the men’s rooms.
Again, this blows me away. I could never imagine this happening in Texas.
