I understand your point, my point is that Mormons are constantly held up as prime examples of conservatism and how we should all try to emulate their values, when, instead, they are just like any other group.
BYU is strictly managed by the LdS church. Nothing is taught there without their approval. No speakers are allowed without their approval(Harry Reid), etc.
I don’t go for the white wash about what such “good people” all the Mormons are. There are good folks in Mormonism, but not all Mormons are good.
I certainly don’t subscribe to that viewpoint, either, that all Mormons are white as the driven snow, because I know firsthand they aren’t.
