So you started up in a football post, with no provocation, to tell everyone why you think Mormons aren't Christian. Yeah you have no issues.

From what I can gather you don't have a lot of pure Christlike love for others, just those that it's easy to love. Best of luck to you in life, seems like a tough way to live.

After a couple minutes of looking, here you go...

Been to your mecca that shithole named Salt Lake City. Even did a tour of the big house in the center of town.
If you choose to believe that being a Mormon is Christian, then I'm Joseph Smith or Bringham Young.

Heard the story and it doesn't change shite no matter how "nice" you guys perceive to be. Don't pay the church y'all worship and see where it gets you. I know several people that have left Mormonism for the same reason people leave Scientology.
Go on and tell the rest of he Rant about being kings of your planets.

Someone needs to have an intervention with the Mormans and Scientologists.

What a weird group of people

- nonalcoholic beer pong - the polygamy dating game - temple garment autographing by BYU football legends - non-sexually suggestive or sexually euphemistic bean bag toss game (aka cornhole) -

God you people are dumb

Go back to your cult and 12 wives Brother Mongo.

You mean the magic underwear?

The Book of Mormon was read out of a hat by a lying moron who scammed you into your entire idiotic way of life

Joseph Smith was called a prophet dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb

I have met some nice, decent mormons, but the majority I've dealt with are anything but kind and caring.

And a bunch about "tricking" all our wives (we aren't polygamists) but those are more about people's ignorance than bigotry

Just a sampling.

And you changed my quote. I said "many (not most)".... you edited to fit your narrative.

Biggest take away from this "football thread"....many (not most) LSU fans are massive bigots. Sad.

I know it's usually a vocal minority but geez...

How many yards to Toledo (Hint 691 yards and 53 points). Held Boise to a lean 570 yards. Total defense ranked 71st.


Even with our admittedly terrible Toledo game, where it counts, points per game, when you look at the whole season and not 1 hand picked game, you gave up 16 and we gave up 19 ppts

You guys are good but this isn't last season so last seasons stats don't mean a ton and you aren't unbeatable.

Msu is the only team on that list worth anything.


The only common opponent last year was Miss. St we both played at home. We gave up 14 in regulation, 21 after 2 OTs, LSU gave up 20 in regulation.

LSU is an elite defense but BYU in our first year of a new coach had only 3 games with defensive giving up more than 20 points. And we ranked #2 nationally in take aways

I'm just saying I believe this will be a defensive game overall.

If you're banking on this, I feel sorry for you. I expect a competitive game but BYU has shown nothing to warrant this type of defensive performance away from Provo against a team with the weapons LSU has.



Feel sorry then but your OLine is questionable and that leads to issues week 1

And last year we gave up
16 pts @ Arizona
20 pts @ Utah
17 pts to UCLA
35 @ West Virginia
14 pts @ Michigan State
14 pts in regulation to Mississippi St.

So check some basic facts before trash talking.

From what I've seen...Most LSU fans think the game is gonna be fairly close. I haven't seen many think it's gonna be a cakewalk or blowout. Maybe you just want to be pissed before the game


Just in this thread there are predictions of 24 point win, another of 800 total yards, another of 17 points (the closest prediction), 400 yards rushing etc etc.

And why would that piss me off before the game? All I stated was it'll be closer than the crazy predictions in this thread.

I don't know 1 BYU fan that has said we are on par or have a similar defense to LSU. So your initial comment is odd.

I do believe we will be much tougher than most of you here think. We lost 4 games last year by a combined 8 points.

Last year was a completely new coaching staff across the board with a terrible O and D line. Both units will be improved but it'll take a couple recruiting classes to get where we need to be.

Your RBs will be the best we see this season. Our hope is that with all the issues on your Oline that we can get pressure in the backfield, but either way Guice will get his.

We are expecting a big jump from year 1 to year 2 as players know their assignments much better.

We started 2 Freshmen at corners last year and they did well but our injury ridden DLine didn't pressure enough. We were #2 in the country at creating turnovers though. And as noted earlier we gave up a lot of yardage in the middle of the field last year but yardage isn't points, we only gave up 19 PPG.

We'll have the advantage at QB, Mangum is an elite QB, he was the co-MVP at the elite 11 with Jamis Winston. He played very well as a true freshman forced into the lineup after an injury to the starter after being back only a few months from his LDS mission. And he was able to really learn the new offense last year while playing behind a 5th year senior.

We also get a week 0 game against Portland St as a tune up so we are hoping you'll have some first game issues we can take advantage of.

I'm still thinking it'll be a shorter game with a lot of running. BYU 17 - LSU 14
If you truly care to know our response to the adding to the Bible issue (which I suspect you don't care to) you can see it here.

In response to your list of things I supposedly believe as a Mormon or member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints, here they are....

1) we do believethat God truly made us in his image and that like any parent he wants for us the best and that we can progress to be like our father.

2) We believe that God the Father, his son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost are 3 entities that make up the Godhead not one entity in 3 forms

3) Don't know where you got this one. Of course we believe in a "hell". Many times you'll hear Mormons refer to it as outer darkness.

4) we do believe in what Paul preached and supported the practice of baptism for the dead in I Corinthians 15:29, "Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?"

5) it does seem silly that a loving God would share his gospel with his people on the the other side of the world. And to the witnesses, there were 11 that wrote of their witness to the Book of Mormon at the time it was translated (there were more but those 11 wrote of their accounts and you can easily find them)

Do I care if you believe what I believe? No. I love having theological discussions with friends of different faiths.

What I dislike is people telling me what I personally believe based off of their interpretation of something they read.

I'm always shocked by those claiming to be Christian who are so quick to attack others in very un-Jesus like ways.

Again, if you care to read what we as mormons truly believe about Jesus and living a Christ centered life, here is a link. But I suspect you'll not care to hear it from an actual Mormon.

BYU in an upset, 17-14. And religion will have nothing to do with any of it.
