General Off-Topic Board / Re: Is it just me or is Mormon-bashing socially acceptable for some reason?

Bashing quiet minorities has always been socially acceptable.

I think it's become more vocal after Prop 8 passed.  Something about the irony of polygamists voting to define marriage between a man and a woman.  Huh.

Considering the LDS Church banned polygamy a hundred years ago, I think this post is a great example of Mormon bashing

I don't see how morally perverted institution is redeemed for officially banning an immoral act. That's like saying "I'm a good priest now because I stopped raping women and children long time ago."

Well yeah... but you aren't a regular citizen. You claim a morally higher ground than the rest. You are the church or the priest.

I think that the internet has destroyed the information asymmetries that previously dominated the LS application process and schools' placement, and, as a result, people are taking the test increasingly seriously. In 1998, you might have thought that the test was a minor component of your application. Today, you know that your future is riding on it.

even in 1998, only idiot believe this.

while i don't particularly want to be assaulted with caveman grammar, i would like to point out that his point doesn't hinge on assuming that smart people thought the lsat was unimportant in 1998 - there were a lot of idiots going to law school in 1998 - there are a lot of idiots going to law school in 2008 - today's idiot is just better-informed and so obsesses a lot more about the lsat (go over to tls and take a look at the people posting in the lsat forum - you'll see what i'm talking about)

will julie really - see what - talking about?


Can you please explain why the December test will be hardest ever?

dude get the drift. she's being facetious.

Bloom, why are you so surprised?  Voting yes to Prop 8 doesn't make you a caveman - just a moral conservative. 

What's "moral" about a man marrying a woman? Where do you get this idea?

Ummm... I couldn't imagine it'll be a big issue.  I'd order new transcripts.  However, I doubt it's imperative.

isn't degree award mandatory for applying to law schools?
