I realize economics is not your forte, but are you trolling on your own board? It is not hard to understand that these "sacred" funds must be used as prudently as possible.

That is what you are saying, right? That's certainly the lesson I have taken from the church and the gay marriage issue. That it must not be that important to them, as they have gotten progressively less involved, less strident. The question is why. Because it is morally less important, or because the church fears the consequence of speakings its mind? Archaea, I apologize for laying out the issue starkly. It makes people uncomfortable when they realize what is being traded and bought. There will always (I hope) be people willing to point to what is actually going on. |

The Church saw its political capital be drained and lost through this last costly battle and probably has re-evaluated it to see if it is one worth emptying the coffers and decided against it. Only survival issues are worth emptying the coffers. One doesn't go ballistic on every affront.

As an employer, I would hope that a representative of the university would have produced higher quality work than that. |

He didn't display the professionalism one would have hoped to see from a professor from the Philosophy Deparment.

So in your opinion an employee can produce shoddy work and bring the employer publicly in disrepute and still retain his position? You must live in a dream world there as a researcher. Most employers would can somebody for much less than that.

You are correct in suggesting that BYU likes to keep its faculty's incompetence (not speaking of everyone) out of the spotlight.
