Have been doing research linking RWJF and the Morman Church. If anyone has any info, please provide it. If this link can be substantiated, it will tell us all a lot about the forces of the ban movement and the forthcoming anti-alcohol movement.

I found this on a three-year-old blog of someone named Naomi Goodrich:

"A national program of The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation gives grant money to small interfaith coalitions that are dedicated to working with a particular service population with their communities. As the Student Interfaith Council community outreach project, they have chosen an elderly population consisting of 414 elderly citizens (65 or older) of Salt Lake County who live alone. The citizens are in threat of losing their houses because they are unable to keep them up. The council will provide volunteers within this community to help with small, important tasks. The focused community suffers from loneliness, the inability to execute important tasks and the inability to care for their households. The council volunteers will make weekly phone calls and visits, provide transportation, assist in household chores (e.g., paying bills, doing laundry, grocery shopping, etc.) and helping out with seasonal yard work and house maintenance."

It all sounds pretty innocent to me...but then, so did O.J. at first.

Torque:

Thanks for the lead. Will check it out. The link I am most interested in establishing is whether the Johnson family, particularly Robert Wood Johnson IV, are Morman.

That seems to be a well guarded secret but if established explains a lot and shows a clear intrusion of a religion into our government which is a major violation of one of our founding principles.
