This is taken from my friend Bryan Tanner's blog. I watched the video and Rachel does an excellent job explaining the fundamental beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Quoted from Bryan:
Here is just one, 20-minute clip of a religious panel of Harvard students discussing their respective beliefs. Each of these Harvard students did a great job.
Rachel Esplin, the third panel member eloquently fielded questions regarding an assortment of specific LDS topics such as:
* General religious background and how that interacts with her life.
* Missionary service.
* Religious discrimination/confrontations (cult?)
* Anti-Mormons and inequality of women (Priesthood).
* Who was Joseph Smith and what does he mean to you?
* How to know the truth?
* Who is Jesus Christ?
* Temple garments and secret covenants.
* Will you marry a Mormon?
Only 20 years old, Rachel represented the Church with honor while still showing deference towards other Christian and non-Christian faiths. Well done Rachel.

Awesome panel huh... I watched them all at work. I really enjoyed the jewish guy- very interesting. Also, I thought about you and your "homies" when Elder Sybrowski came to our stake conference this last weekend... very inspiring speakers.
