People think that is really cute--and brag about how they would have gotten a front-row seat or whatever--but they are appalled that both this young man and his teammates are willing to abide by the code of virtue that once was taken for granted among observant Christians. Now where do you suppose young people today are more likely to get an education beneficial to society? Porno U or Brigham Young? I'll bet on the Mormons.
Wow! (I didn't know our choices were limited to Porno U. vs. the the guy who taught for over 20 years that the character in the garden, Adam was god...and that some sins can't be atoned for by Jesus your blood shed for them is more "sacred" than Christ's)
And what's so sacro-sanct about a university like BYU that teaches "anecdotal ghost stories" as formal BYU freshman courses...the following describes a man who is supposedly seeing dead spirits -- 300 of them -- pop in and out of view in the Mormon temple @ Manti as Mormons dead dunk dead people by proxy:
In partial answer to the question, let us review a journal entry written by Charles R. Woodbury after he had “witnessed 300 baptisms one day” in the Manti Temple: As a name was called out for baptism, a voice said to me, “This person has had the Gospel taught them and is converted and is ready for baptism.” Another name would be called out, “This person’s never heard the Gospel yet.” Another name would be called, “This person’s heard the Gospel and is not converted.” I sat there in that condition and witnessed 300 baptisms. I knew everyone of them that had accepted it and those that didn’t…25 out of the 300 weren’t ready for it. They weren’t converted and ready for the work. The rest of them, the other 275 were prepared and rejoiced that their work was being done. This is the testimony that I have to show people that the departed spirits know and appreciate when their work is done in the Temple, so they can enjoy the blessings of the Gospel (Woodbury, 1970, p. 19).
