Moderators can get cheesecake and you can't, though.

Sad, orbsy. Guess you weren't righteous enough to go to the Lord's University.

I was accepted into both BYU and BYU-Idaho...

I chose Idaho because it was more spiritual...

We actually enforce OUR standards...

BYU Standards are more like guidelines.... (and some of the BYU parties I've gone to... wow...)

The spirituality of a campus is all personal. You choose whether or not you have a more spiritual time by making small but consistent decisions.

I started while it was Ricks and finished after it was BYU-I... I even have a Ricks T-Shirt... but it's really old... O_o

SWKT, I'm sure you repent just as much as anyone else. :P

Also, I've been to both schools and seen the environment at each. BYU-Idaho is a lot tamer than BYU. And that does make it easier to be spiritual there. To take things to the extreme to illustrate the point... It's a lot easier to be spiritual in Provo then it is to be spiritual in the Bronx.

Actually, you digress, SWKT is near perfect and doesn't need to repent as much as us.

I think it is all the snow which makes it tamer. Plus the climb uphill to the math building when it is windy just kills all excitement.

Oh, sorry then SWKT... I didn't know :(

But yes... Going from the stadium to the Gordon B Hinckley building does suck. But I only had to do that T Th... At BYU you have to climb those ~200 stairs every day no matter where you're going on campus.

Harrowing winter winds each day of winter, or being slightly winded by a lot of stairs? Are you blaming the 200 stairs for the perceived lack of spiritualism at BYU?

I think it is also important to point out that BYU-Idaho has no 100-hour board equivalent...

This could be an important factor...

Now you're blaming lack of spirituality on the Board?

Lol! You guys are so silly! I love it! Cuties! But you know, the 100 hr board can function at BYU-I too!!!1 And they'll even let BYU-I kids become writers!!! Isn't that so cool? :lol:

You're just jealous that BYU-I has no tunnel worms.

Has that actually happened?

Yes... I am blaming the lack of spirituality at BYU on the 100 hour board...

Seriously... If you can't see the connection there you're not 20/20
