[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gosh, no. Don't do it. Imagine all social activities being at a middle school maturity level (singing carols, spin the bottle (gasp!), board games, etc). Everything revolves around the church, and if your life doesn't, then there is something wrong with you. Everyone there will find out he's not a member and assume that his presence at BYU indicates an interest in the church, or that the spirit has inspired him to attend; this will lead to crazy missionary efforts. Every Sunday in which there is a lesson/message on missionary work he will be the guy they think of, and then he'll have a very annoying 3-5 weeks until the next missionary lesson.

In short, his life will be a pain in the ass.[/quote]

[b]I went to BYU and I admit those games were cheesy, but they can actually be fun. [/b]And not that all college activities at other colleges revolve around drinking, but a lot do, and Id prefer my kid play board games and sardines than beer pong.

While we did pressure people who weren’t members to attend church, we never assumed they went to BYU because they were interested. We assumed it was for the academics and price of tuition. Some of us were annoying but socially I treated non-members like everyone else. [/quote]

Did you ever play wink'em or kissing rugby?  I went to high school with a lot of Mormons and those games were big.[/quote]

No I never did. I probably did something like that in middle school but not high school and definitely not at BYU. [/quote]
