over them. The HCO can demand whatever it wants. But it can't compel bishops to do nada. I've never understood why people continue to make your claim.

Umm ... of course not. Bishop's suggest self reporting and/or ask permission ...

Not all bishops follow this guideline

As a group, bishops are really, really good men. But they're not perfect.

Agreed. The only reason I bring that up is I wish the HCO acted more like a

Anytime I hear Carrie Jenkins say something, I assume the opposite is true.

I have a friend who had a bad bishop experience at BYU

Two sides to every story...just sayin. One side is talking the other one can't

I agree with you 100%. I am only hearing one side

Yeah, that's good to keep in mind

Yup, sometimes it isn't. But sometimes people say things to bishops that

Why did you feel the need to make this point on this particular story?

The whole threat of being kicked out of school for moral transgression always

That's a change, used to be the opposite. Bishops were required to share with

The HCO didn't require it, the Church did

DapperDan

You are so full of it.

Bostonblue

5/27/16 6:53am

Sorry, but that used to be the policy. Your belief doesn't alter the past.

DapperDan

Dapper, you seem to have an axe to grind when it comes to the church. Did

That's hilarious if true.

You have defended the faith. All is well again.

Even if he DID have an axe to grind, why would you assume it was because....

I didn't assume that. I just asked a question and was trying to rib him.

Fair enough.

When I was at BYU my bishops said that it was required.

RSLCoug

5/27/16 7:00am

That's only because your bishop didn't like you.

Bostonblue

It was the policy, and it was announced over the pulpit week one of classes.

This outlines the change from honor code to code of conduct

My brother just finished a stint as a bishop at BYU. It is not the policy now.

Looking at my post history, the change was during the Crowton years.

Sorry, but IMO, there's far too much of a culture that fosters punitive

Entirely agree. The way the HC is implemented it creates a culture of pharisees.
