gospel (which includes correcting others) & to be a witness at all times?

Or is this just "niceness culture" & "avoid conflict at all costs"?

Did you guys see this? BYU Professor tearing up the Family Proclamation?

There are a lot of foolish people the first week after an election

This is my take. People can be very irrational when it comes to politics –

How is posting the Proclamation a waste of time? Do you support

Posting it on someone elses door, badgering them, and posting online

Agreed. Seems really weird, tough no idea what the history is.

No idea who anyone is in this but its hard to take the side of the click hustler

I put the student in the same category as the professor. Both contentious.

The Dark Knight

Nov 8, 9:40am

Nah, the student is a self-appointed purity patrol

Gustav

Meh. Student is lame too but gets a pass because he’s young.

This has not been discussed at all.

Why would he get excommunicated?

Purportedly he "tore up scripture."

TheWanderer

Nov 8, 10:04am

Interesting. Well, I guess you knew what it was when you took the job at BYU.

iknownothing

Nov 8, 11:50am

Excommunicated? I am not even sure he knew what he was tearing up when he did

Bin01015

Even if he knew what it was there is ZERO possibility of getting exed over it

YOHONOMOTO

Nov 9, 12:57pm

He wouldn’t even get exed for saying it isn’t. Geez, they don’t even ex for adultery anymore.

My main feedback for that professor is to start getting some exercise

Yeap video says more about the guy filming and posting - has a serious void in

OC Coug

Nov 8, 9:26am

What void is that? OC Coug, are you cool with Professor Cardon

gopman

Nov 8, 9:32am

This is getting old. Disagreeing with actions of the student doesn't equate to agreeing with the professor

Preppy

Nov 8, 9:33am

What is it that you disagree with the student?

gopman

Nov 8, 9:36am

Taping the Proclamation to the door, filming him, confronting him...pretty much everything the student did is not needed

If you think this is how the Savior would have handled the situation

Do you truly believe that we are called to preach the gospel through counter protests, canceling, and arguing? I don't

Yes, it is our responsibility to be the "wheat" & separate ourselves

Your take needs some serious self reflection.

gopman

No one should have confronted the professor in the first place. It's dumb and not needed.

Preppy

Nov 8, 9:36am

Why should the Professor NOT be confronted? Is confrontation at certain times

gopman

Nov 8, 9:50am

Maybe his employer can do the confronting

Preppy

Nov 8, 10:00am

No, I think we all just need to go in vigilante style one by one and attack him.

I have seen the error of my way. . . Let's do what you said!

Zoobieman

This is really going to rile you up. I once cut up a Book of Mormon

notaboy

Nov 8, 9:40am

Context matters. Professor Cardon clearly knew what was taped to his door.

gopman

Nov 8, 9:53am

I’m fine with it. No issues at all. It’s just paper.

100% correct. Sadly the rot is real among some members.

That’s gotta be one of the most judgmental things I’ve seen you say…oh wait. Nope.

Jokes on him. There are millions of copies out already

BYU is already working on aligning professors with the aims of BYU and the Church

You had this guy as a professor as well? What classes did he teach you?

Not sure the guy even read it before tearing it up.

He did. The student posted context before he started recording and the professor
