BYU ballplayer kicked out of school
Didn't attend church enough - ecclesiastical endorsement not renewed.
http://www.sltrib.com/ci_8149321 "They said he didn't participate in the ward enough, hadn't been to church enough and hadn't gone in and asked for a calling," Kenneth Walton said. "All the stake president would say was, 'I hope you don't hurt your son by making a big issue out of this.' " Yikes. |

If it is solely as reported, that is ridiculous. A bishop run amuck.
Didn't come in for a calling? Jeez the lad should be commended not kicked out of school. Where did they get these yokals? And no probationary option provided? Who is running the ship there? |

No way is that all there is to the story. Half of BYU would be kicked out if during any 11 weeks strech they only attended 60% of the time. I find it impossible to believe that that was the sole reason.

It is as silly thing as can be. Maybe the EE needs to be re-evaluated. If you receive one from home bishop, why should the university quasi-bishop be allowed to disown the student? This bishop and stake president seem to have run amuck. It's completely bizarre. The story has an aura of authenticity, and it's disconcerting that President Samuelson didn't over-rule the ridiculous decision. "He didn't come in for a calling." What the heck. |
The Mormiban strikes again. Defiling the museum is up next.
