It is mostly that byu felt like it needed to go out of its way to say it didn't authorize it. It should have just remained silent.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View Post

no kidding. That’s a PR slam dunk. It’s funny and manages to steer clear of potential land mines on both sides of the argument."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

It did the same thing earlier this week when someone passed out fliers to protest against LGBT.Originally posted by MartyFunkhouser View Post

This feels like something that doesn't really matter. (Though I don't always guess right on what is and is not a big deal.)τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

Refresh my memory, did she give a similar warning to the students passing out anti-gay fliers? Do you really not see the difference? What Jenkins said was not simply a disassociation, it was a threat.The Y is BYU property, and any form of public expression on university property requires prior approval. We intend to make certain that members of our campus community understand this.”Last edited by Non Sequitur; 03-05-2021, 03:55 PM."The mind is not a boomerang.
