This is a series of posts discussing why I as an evangelical Christian decided to attend Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. I began attending in January 2001 and graduated in August 2005 with a BA in Classical Studies (Classics Emphasis) and a minor in Hebrew.

I am glad I found these posts. They are even more useful than facebook-stalking! Haha

Or more fun I should say…
TYD ~ I’m glad you liked the series. I try to make it fun. Religious dialogue gets so SRS a lot of the time, it’s exhausting.
Feel free to Facebook me anytime.
On a side note, can I say that I love your appropriate use of internet shorthand? So… my license plate is SRSLY (and DH’s is O RLY). And nobody gets it.
My favorite license plate ever sighted? M0V3 Z1G. With a license plate holder that said “All your base are belong to us.”
I think you should write a blog post about how your Christianity changed because of being at BYU. I think about this a lot, and would be really interested in hearing in what ways your thinking changed from the beginning of your time at BYU to the end of it.
