That one wasn't intolerant- just amusing.

I assumed your request for links was a joke, given that you could pretty much throw a dart at a post on CB an hour ago and hit what you were looking for.

Default From the old policy

"Advocacy of a homosexual lifestyle (whether implied or explicit) or any behaviors that indicate homosexual conduct, including those not sexual in nature, are inappropriate and violate the Honor Code."

What exactly are behaviors that indicate homosexual conduct that are not sexual in nature, anyway? Listening to Cher? Speaking with a lisp?

I didn't realize this used to be the policy. The change is definitely for the better.

Part of the problem is Jefe has purged dialogue. So the hate speech goes unchallenged and unchecked. Cougarboard finding its natural equilibrium.

What hate speech? Please refer us to a link that is "hate speech". Since when does "I think homosexuality is wrong" = "hate speech"?

CatBlue is just bitter that his blatant trolling attempts have been hindered by Jefe et al.

Jefe's desire is to set Cougarboard up as an ensign to all nations and a symbol of Mormon culture and thought. He thinks the way to do so is by manipulating discussion, but what he's ended up with is a rabid, vicious gang of ultra-conservatives. What he's done is unbalanced the ecosystem and turned it into something more unattractive than what he wanted to prevent.

mormonism has no answer for homosexuality . it only condemns acts. BYU HAS decided not to be thought police. its a start.
