Gay Student Panel at BYU

Post by _CaliforniaKid »

If anyone's interested, I posted a writeup of last night's gay student panel on my blog. Note that the summary is based on the liveblog put together by The Student Review. I couldn't actually get inside to hear what was said for myself, because people were packed in around the doors. Lots of folks got turned away for lack of room.

The current LDS policy on same sex marriage will either evolve into the personal speculation and opinion of General Authorities who have gone before, or else we will see yet another 180 degree shift.

Probably could fill the Marriot Center. Just a thought, next time.

CK, what are you doing in Provo? You didn't transfer to BYU did you?

On a side note, To Hell with LDS Marriot or any of their subsidiaries I provided for... The money I made for them was meant to help the poor people that worked there. Hopefully that company will open some sort of fine dining establishment to feed the needy across the way from __________. Plenty of vacancies, no excuses.

Thanks for letting me know. I will never stay in another Marriott ever again.

No, I'm living in Provo while I work on my dissertation research.

Wow! Thanks for that, Chris. That was really fascinating and the enormous response to the panel was very encouraging.

Is the Standard of Liberty group connected with the Chaste by an Elephant book people? I feel like I remember that from another thread a while back...

Anyway, thanks for the write-up CK.
