It's their religion, and for anyone bashing on Mormonism, I could give you ample comparisons from any other religion on the face of the Earth. Most notably, I could sit here and pick points about Catholicism and Notre Dame's honor code, but many of our fans would get their panties in a bunch for me doing that to our team. Nothing makes sense to everyone, but you should at least respect what they believe and admire them for upholding those beliefs, whether you buy into it or not. While I sympathize with the player and understand it isn't a big deal socially, for the school it is, and he agreed to this when he enrolled. It's unfortunate for this kid, but it's well within BYU's code to take this course of action.

At 3 months, she is starting to "show." Uh oh... someone must fess up...

May their kids be blessed and may they have a great life together. Or not. Otherwise, I don't give a dang about BYU.

What the hell does that mean, and who the hell is nero?

I can only answer half of that but Nero was one of the many Caesars from old Roman times, also known as probably the most ruthless of them all. Killed many people for no reason, possibly the "Devil" on Earth

It means I hope their kid is blessed,and they have a great life together. 666, You are Nero. You have a comp. Do a simple Google on Nero and 666. But like I said, I'm not a Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobian. You mentioned "hell" twice. hmmm lol.

It's tourney time and a BYU student got a scarlet letter for liking a girl. Do my math. The E-Vile math.

Just having some fun with you.

When you want to have more concise posts, instead of wasting space in the thread, let me know, and I'll tell you about the edit button at the bottom of a post so you don't have to use three, one line posts in a row. :yes:

well I am a sports fan, who is wondering why I would even waste my time on a web site with a bunch of judgemental, ignorant, people who claim to love ND as much as me. All you guys do is insult peoples faith, grammar and anything that is not like you.

But I am Italian and really appreciate the comparison to Nero, after googling him, he has done much to be admired for.

Dang it I missed the good stuff.


What was Michael Jackons favorite college?


Brigham young.



The Dean of Women at BYU was lecturing her students on sexual morality. "We live today in very difficult times for young people. In moments of temptation," she said, "ask yourself just one question: Is an hour of pleasure worth a lifetime of shame?"

A young woman rose in the back of the room and said, "Excuse me, but how do you make it last an hour?"

I hope the one true god doesn't frown upon misspelling his messenger's name...

In any event, I have no idea how you got so righteous all of a sudden.

This gotten out of hand and far too personal. Respect opinions, accept (however grudgingly) humor.

As devastating as the decision is for the player/student/team, the university has its rules, regardless of one's secular "take" or another's moral stance. In that regard I stand at Irish666's side. I also stand with those who question the value of that rule.

Commentary, pro or con is fine. "Slings and arrows" are quite another thing. Pre marital sex is a NO-NO in both the Mormon and Catholic Churches. BYU is Mormon and ND Catholic. One has chosen to make it an offense that warrants immediate and dire consequences and the other has not.

I feel, personally, that both churches are a bit "off" in their views, but that's another "mountain out of a molehill" thing.

Without going into additional, excruciating and boring commentary, my advice is to simply "settle down."

If you read my post about this, I also agree with what he is saying in regard to BYU. His other posts is where I have issues, particularly where he went after the Deer.
