BYU's Davies kicked off team for doing his girlfriend

[rasho8]

When BY said it doesn't make it anymore right. That kind of deep, passionate hatred doesn't go away with time. The fact BYU hasn't changed its name yet is de able and proves how racist Mormons are. And no I'm not dumb enough to try and date a Mormon, I just have first hand knowledge of how backwards and nutty these people are.

You have first hand knowledge? I was raised Mormon. I think mine might be a little more first hand then yours. Calling them backward because they live according to a prescribed set of principles is pretty audacious and condescending at the least.

I'm willing to bet the kid had several white teammates plowing their girlfriend and thought it would be OK for him to do. I doubt he knew Bringham Young was such a cold, racist human being.

Yes and so were the slave owners back in the day, didn't stop them from being President of the US and heroes of our Country. You can't judge a person 200 years ago on today's standards. Back then they were taught black people weren't even people. So it's not surprising in any way that he would have adhered to the mainstream belief of the times.

Agreed. The kid should have done his homework about Bringham Young's radical racism before going to his school.

The kid GREW UP IN PROVO! He KNEW the code. He didn't have to do any research. He already knew. And I am sorry but I WENT to BYU. We are not all racists and phobes. So keep your blanket hatred to yourself, please.

That's what I'm saying. Mormons wanted to be Polygamists and force marriages, the only reason they don't is because of laws against it. What kind of immoral human beings need laws to tell them forcing multiple 13 year olds to marry a 50 year old is wrong?

Name me a Mormon today, that you know, that WANTS to be a polygamist and I will accept it. Name me ONE mainstream Mormon that even thinks its a good idea. There is a history behind polygamy that you obviously don't know or are so blinded by hate as to not recognize it.

The people that do it today are true Mormons basing their belief system off of none other than the prophet Joseph Smith himself.

A belief system that has changed to exclude that behavior from the mainstream Church, just like every religion grows and changes over time.

This proves how racist they are.

All the ways you could presumably prove how racist the LDS and BYU is, and this is what you choose?

It's like saying Alex Mack not making the Pro Bowl over Maurice Pouncey (or Marquise, whatever his name is) is proof that Cleveland is a ty sports town. You could cite better examples.

Well, it involves the #3 ranked team in the country, so it's the only time BYU is relevant enough for anyone to give a

Nah. It's backwards. Mormonism is clearly a fantasy and people live sometimes awful, repressed lives because of it; it's no coincidence that Utah consumes more anti-depressants, opiates and pornography than any other American state. Just because there are principles involved doesn't mean it can't be described as archaic and weird. Jihadists live by principles too, that doesn't preclude their being totally ed.

Considering the whole "one mighty and strong" prophesy that's a fundamental part of MAINSTREAM mormon doctrine. Y'know, the supposed emergence of a person/deity prophesied to appear and 'set in order' the original conception of mormonism, I would say that plenty of mormons look forward to the return of polygamy. Whether they know it or not, mainstream mormonism is the splinter group, the FLDS are true to Joseph Smith and mainstream mormonism to this day predicts a reunion between the two.

I have Mormon step siblings. If you don't think racism and magic underwear is backwards, you're pretty in re ed. I was raised Jewish, but Orthodox Jews not doing anything on Saturday is pretty backwards.

So you're condoning what Bringham Young said? God damn racist.

You're not phobes ?

My stepbrother. He thinks Polygamy should be legal.

off topic, what do you make of the Patriots O-Line situation?

I think that line has been overrated for way too long now, and a blowup was kinda needed. Then again, the guys replacing Kaczur and Neal and maybe Light & Mankins might end up sucking worse.

Vollmer is still THAT , but tbh I'm pretty nervous that he's the only sure thing on that line right now.

[Trainwreck2100]

is he for gay marriage too, cause they go hand in hand tbqh.

[rasho8]

I'm for freedom of marriage. If you want to marry your dog go ahead I don't care. Washer machines and cars as well. Go hog wild. If 3 people want to get married I am all for it. Forced marriage is bad, because it takes away choice, not because its a plural marriage.

They NEED to resign Mankins. The line as you said has been overrated as for awhile and has been flat out terrible in their last 3 playoff games. Changes are inevitable at LT, C, and RG, they can't compound the problem more by not resigning Mankins to a longterm deal to anchor the line.

IMO, they should move Kaczur to RG or waive him, but he's too slow to play tackle now with all the speedy edge rushers in the NFL. Draft a new center and a new left tackle.

Each Day Offers Potential

[v2freak]

I haven't bothered to re-read the article but has Davies been upset over the decision? There are all these people getting pissed off for him here, when I think he has accepted the decision like a grown man.

Each Day Offers Potential

...again with the crystal ball.
you know everything about me.
Monoman recalls a young Sylvia Brown.

unfortunately, no matter what you say, it is not conventional wisdom in the basketball world that the Hawks will be contending for les within three years. ...and you can "mark my words" on that one, tough guy. you were making a random and overly bold prediction and if you review this thread you will find ample examples of other posters taking issue with your overeager prediction as well.

ps...did you hear about your main man "leo"? i heard he is reuinting with ms. anic winslet herself. you and all the other fangirls must be so excited.

[Axe Murderer]

one thing i find hilarious about this whole ordeal is that LaceDarius Dunn pretty much beats the out of his gf and gets suspended like 2 games for it

While the school has the right to its standards and its code, if it has been unequally enforced, then there is an issue with that.
