Slippery slope. Next they'll let co-eds wear dresses that are hemmed above the ankles. Look at Baylor, the school let the students dance and the next thing you know serial rapists roaming the campus (except on Saturday when they were playing football).

I caution them. There is a very small line between energy drinks and sexting with marsupials.
I remember when we played them they were excited to point out the line at the concession stand that had caffeinated drinks for all us heathens. That we all showed up drunk didn't help.
I have coffee every morning, but can I get lucky? Nooooo. Should I hop a flight to Utah and hit a vending machine in a 55+ community's clubhouse? Asking for a friend.

Next thing you know, they'll sell M&Ms, Snickers and Milk Ways.

That post is like the Itch batsignal....
I know.
I'm surprised YOU on the other hand didn't suggest I go try a funeral home or a mummy museum. You're slipping. 
It was impliedI know.
Is nothing sacred in this world now? Its been a 170 years, so Joseph Smith is tightening up his magic underwear and rolling in his grave.
I don't like it. If you're going to make something part of your dogma, at least stick by it and remain true to it. It's a Mormon school that adheres to Mormon practices, and their stadium should reflect that. Agree or not, visitors should get to at least see commitment to those practices when they go to games there. Just my opinion.
There's no specific prohibition against soft drinks or caffeine in the Mormon code. Joseph Smith had "hot drinks" on his list of "don'ts", and that was taken to mean coffee and tea.
Some Mormons feel soft drinks should be a no-no if they contain any caffeine, but this has apparently never been a formal church rule. BYU says it has not been selling caffeinated soft drinks on campus because there has been no demand for them...not because the Mormon church bans them.

Unlike the strong physical evidence of all the other religions...
Exactly...I was raised Catholic and what we believe in can certainly be perceived as kooky by others.
Note to mods...Please don't hold me responsible for the direction of this thread.
You have a right to your opinion. I think there are a lot of Christian academics and theologians who are more persuasive.
Just as a point of order, I was referring specifically to the Catholic doctrine of transsubstantiation earlier...not the belief in Christ's divinity.
Throw in some misdeeds by the clergy, as well.
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love.
Yes they'll know we are Christians by our love!
Nothing I said was cynical. There is no physical proof of you religious beliefs. That's why it's called "faith."
You are free to believe that you choose the right one, but it's just based on faith like the others. To mock theirs is silly.

Mods must be drinking themselves into a stupor after our NC State loss.
That's the only explanation.
That's the only explanation.
I've always had a theory that Smith was a sexual deviant who probably wandered into a field and got a hold of some bad shrooms.
I apologize. I was more on the fire everybody, nuke the whole football program threads this weekend. I had not seen how this thread devolved.
