I think that birds of a feather flock together people usually keep company with those of similar ethnic groups. religion. weight. etc I am friendly and respectful to everyone and am inclusive but most people do not do this. My husband and i do not smoke or drink or do drugs and are usually dropped when people find this out as they prefer the company of those with the same habits. A lot of things that are considered discrimination are simply inbred choices and preferences It would be nice if people were more inclusive towards others but I personally think its a lost cause. I am accepting of differences but others do not do the same for me. Most relationships where people are wildly different do not last as they are not equally yoked to use a biblical term.
FYI (and forgive me if you already know this) “loud laughter” is no longer a “thing” in the temple ceremony.
Another epic interview — very enlightening and thought provoking.

If these people are not happy at byu then why are they still there. I for one am tired of hearing about it!
