The Millennial Star

Hilarious, I mean really, really HILARIOUS behavior by SDSU fans when BYU came to town

I mean, wearing missionary outfits to a basketball game and then chanting “you’re still Mormon!”  at the BYU fans. Really, really funny.  Those guys definitely should be in the Conan/Leno sweepstakes.

But on a less sarcastic note, it is worth noting that my alma mater Stanford was forced to apologize when our “marching” band made fun of Notre Dame in ways that had anti-Catholic overtones.   Err, make that forced to apologize more than once.  In 1991, the band had a drum major dressed up like a nun, which enraged Catholics.  And then of course in 2004, the band linked Mormons with polygamy when Stanford played BYU.

Anyway, I think we should agree that making fun of somebody’s religion should be off-limits.  This doesn’t just apply to Mormons but to Catholic, Baptists, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, etc.
