Oh, that's easy-peasey....anyone that questions the mormon church's possible skirting of the laws on tax-exemption for interfering in a political matter, or criticizes the motives of the lofty institution of BYU must be tarred with the blackest brush available...in this case, "supporting the gay agenda".
I still marvel at the mormon over-reaching labeling the Hardy calendar "homo-erotic". That kind of says where SOME people have their minds. As a woman, my first thought was that "there are some really nicely, well-toned, attractive young men" and I betcha there were thousands of young women who thought the same.
I'm sure that there are gays who liked it, but the percentage of gays in America is nearly as low as the percentage of mormons in America...not an audience that would make Hardy rich off the proceeds.
Hardy is a sleaze ball, but he also deserves his day with BYU. They have made more of this than they should have. If they had been smart they would have conferred the degree, made an official point about it being a ‘legal issue” but that Hardy was no longer welcome at BYU and been done with it, taken the wind out of his sails. They are now only feeding Hardy's ego and attacks, a fools errand.

There are WAY more Homosexuals than MORMONS.
SLC had better hope they don't get the TOO mad!
It won't be purty!
