Latter-day Saints Seen from Inside and Outside
Harvard Law students had the opportunity to join Professor Feldman and Judge Griffith, two longtime friends, as they shared perspectives—Professor Feldman from the “outside” as a scholar and Judge Griffith from the “inside” as a believer—on the history, beliefs, and adherents of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Judge Griffith emphasized the role of Jesus Christ as the focus of our faith, while Professor Feldman discussed some of the interesting paradoxes that define our church and its role in the public square. The two then took questions from some of the over 100 people in attendance.
