  1. Denied enrollment based on religion? What about a BYU student who discovers they don't believe in the church any more? If they admit this (ie, tell the truth) they can be asked to leave and can lose years of work.

    I don't think the Church is in any position to complain about discrimination given its history of opposition to civil rights for Blacks, women and gays, let alone it's discrimination against students who lose faith in Mormonism.
