The Big 12 expansion groundswell

I never met anyone who had a no-Sunday study rule.

Seriously? I knew lots of people in my student wards that held that rule. It was a parade of piety every Sunday....people refusing to study, people refusing to watch TV, people refusing to listen to music. Not everyone, of course, but there were plenty.

I generally didn't study on Sundays, either. Of course, I tried to avoid studying on Friday and Saturday, too. I covered all Sabbath bases, just in case Mormonism doesnt turn out to be the correct answer.

Ever? Unlikely.

My favorites were people bearing their testimony that not studying on Sunday helped them do better...

I'd say when I was at BYU people with the no study on Sunday policy numbered about 1 out of every 25 people or so.

However, the number of people that said they had that policy and actually held to it, was more like 1 in 2500.

No Sunday play is like if BYU were a guy, and there was this girl who was interested in him, but BYU was gay, so nothing can happen between them. No Sunday play is an insoluble structural impediment though people don't talk about it much.

That was subtle.

[Surfah]

BYU has played on Sunday 3 times before.

I bet you did but you just made them feel so guilty about it they didnt tell you.

Or maybe it was a pearls before swine sort of thing.

lol.

For decades, the Utes were dating a gay guy according to his rules.

Not to worry...

But now the Utes are straight. Amazing what a few years of electroshock therapy can do.

good catch.

This reply has given me a moment of clarity – yeah, even an epiphany of sorts. I have wondered at what point I became a skeptic. It must have been when I would skip church at BYU to study.

My roommates would sneak into girls apartments during church and cook themselves lunch using the girls food. I know that one time they cooked steak mashed potatoes and salad. They would clean the dishes and have everything back in order by the time church ended. There were a lot of pissed off girls in the ward thinking that another girl at her food.
