I'm pissed at BYU for what they did to Harvey. It's been discussed. I don't mean to rehash. I'm pissed at what happened to Loyd. I hate that my school (and church) comes across as extremely Pharasaical institution. But the bottom line is it's part of me and always will be.
I don't agree with a lot of stuff that happens in my family of origin. But I don't divorce myself from my family. I'll always be a Santos, no matter what crap my parents or aunts and uncles or brothers or sisters might pull. And though we always likely have a Thanksgiving day blow up, we all wear the citizen police arm badge with pride.
I don't believe anyone should be excommunicated from a church for sin. I have more and more doubts related to historical items, but it's to the point where it almost doesn't matter. When I knocked on doors in Korea and they said they were Buddhist, I did the self righteous inquisition of why they were Buddhist, what was their doctrine, and how did they observe their Buddhist religion they were always exposed. They didn't do anything except go to temple once a year, they couldn't explain their doctrine, and they were only Buddhist because their father, father's father, father's father's father, etc were Buddhist. I've decided I'm Mormon in the same way and that's OK. My great great great great great great grandfather walked the plains. So, I'm a Mormon and my kids will be a Mormon.
I don't believe anyone should be kicked out of a university for normal college kid behavior. They especially shouldn't be kicked out ONLY when their normal college kid behavior gets reported in the media. I hate it when Bronco equates BYU football glory with the stone cut out of the mountain. But BYU football is in my blood, it's part of me, and I can't divorce it.
I'm a part of these institutions. If I don't like things, I will work from within to affect change.
This is the first year since my mission I skipped open to the public practices and haven't kept up on all the two deep maneuvering or done the preseason outlook analysis I love to do.
I was planning on selling my season tickets and boycotting the season as a protest to the Harvey treatment. I officially forgive BYU. I'm back in.
Let's talk starting linebackers.
