    99% of the women don't care, so it's nice that Funk is offended on their behalf to bring this atrocity to light.
    Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

        Because they're all metaphysically lobotomized, which is the whole point. If you raise them from babies to be taught that the way of the world is patriarchal and they are inferior to men and their role is circumscribed and stunted, the indoctrination will be self-fulfilling. Real women think what you say 99% of women don't care about is repulsive, if they consider it. But you're probably right in the sense that 99% of women within and outside Mormonism who would be offended by it don't waste their time giving it a minute's thought.

        That whole list gives me the heebee Jeebees. Yuck.

          For the most part, the child us supported and surrounded by strangers to him or her. Many of the people in the circle probably met the baby for the first time that day.

          Baby blessings are a great example of massive problems in the LDS church.

            Sort of like all of those Saudi women who don't want the right to drive. You know, because it threatens the family and divinely ordained gender roles and so on.

                      Worst feature of Mormonism: producing Mormons like ByronMarchant. Zing. I'm just kidding.

                          "...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."

                            For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                            Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                              HIs wife is indeed in an unusual position--a progressive women stuck in a time capsule called Mormonism.

                                LOL, I know a lot of women who are OK with this and they are a hell of a lot brighter than you have proven to be. Of course you can always use the Trump excuse, "I was being sarcastic".
