What do they believe? What do you think? Talk about religion as it exists today.

You can go to BYU if you're not Mormon, but apparently you should leave if you start to have any doubts...

So it's ok if you're not a Mormon as long as you are a committed Mormon.

It is true that not all BYU students are LDS. The church sees value in allowing non-Mormon students who see the church positively and support its values to enroll. Why not allow students who leave the church to remain enrolled like any other non-LDS student? The answer is that as far as the church is concerned, position is not nearly as important as direction. Just like a repentant sinner is cause for celebration while someone drifting off into sin is treated as a catastrophe, a friendly non-member is not the same as a friendly ex-member.

Here is a link to what is how Mormonism and is analogous to how all religions basically started. Enjoy.

If pressed for time, start it up at about the 10 mi. mark.
