Re: First question you asked the board
First online question, rejected. Actually 25% of my first dozen questions were rejected: https://theboard.byu.edu/questions/66624/ - Suggesting Alumni Association as possible home for the board https://theboard.byu.edu/questions/67536/ - Inquiry as to Commander Keen's status https://theboard.byu.edu...

Come to Alaska, where our young women shoot guns for activities more than the young men do (and are better shots).

Re: religion/relationship poll
Although I voted my current relationship status (married, both active lds), five of the eight categories are applicable to various times in my life: married, both active lds married, neither active lds single, active lds, will only date other lds single, active lds, will date non-lds single, not act...

BQ 83402 YSA - privileged position or persecuted posterity
https://theboard.byu.edu/questions/83402 Seems to me many YSA wards have a privileged position, not a "second class" position. YSA wards don't have to rotate times like the common wards, generally have a later start time (1pm would be great! Sunday morning sleep in ftw. I suspect many YSA...

Re: 83352 - The Board Apostasy Board (I'm joking, not hating
I would place myself in the conservative, active, practicing Mormon category, and I very much disagree with Blargh - the Board Board is a friendly place. You will be called out on your opinions and ideas here, and need to be able to defend them, but will generally be respected the hell out of, espec...

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
Pretty strange, isn't it to worry about cake end use? But I admire the guy's religious commitment, and I defend his right to practice his religion as he feels he must. If he were seriously harming people I'd feel like he should be reigned in, but there are other laws which do that. To some of us it...

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
This is discrimination. Aligned with principles, cake for you - against principles, no cake for you!Vorpal Blade wrote:No one was to get a cake for a purpose that went against his Christian principles.
The purpose of a wedding cake is to be eaten! It's not to express the political or religious view of the baker.

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
The decision did not force Mr. Phillips through the weight of law to express a point of view contrary to the dictates of his conscience. He is still free to believe same-sex marriage is wrong. He is still free to express that point of view in print, verbally, or whatever. It compelled him to treat c...

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
If a baker refuses to make Halloween or bachelor cakes for anyone, that is ok. If a baker refuses to make Halloween or bachelor party cakes for specific groups of people, let's say Mormons, for example, that is not ok.

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
Right. They did not refuse to do business with him. They felt obligated to take him to court so he would do business with them and anyone else. Charlie Craig and David Mullins did not refuse to do business with Mr. Phillips. They went to court to get him to do such business, despite, as the above qu...

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
The point is, as Marduk explained in the first responses to this thread, that: There are, and always have been, restrictions on what individuals can do with their religious freedom. I can infer along with you that Mr. Phillips was just as kind to Charlie's mom on the phone the next day. I certainly ...

Re: BQ 81245 Religious Rights of Business Owners
Uh no, that's not what the court case I am reading stated. It's pretty cut and dried that he refused to make them any type of cake, decorated or not, that was for a same-sex wedding. I don't see where it was stated whether he did that kindly or unkindly, either. The undisputed evidence is that Phill...
