ive met quite a few mormons who drink monster/red bull instead of coffee because the scripture doesn’t say anything about energy drinks. always found that interesting (in the most neutral way possible)

yeah, it's all stupid arbitrary rules. you aren't allowed to drink any form of tea either. it also says any form of premarital sex is the second worse sin to murder. and of course there's all the stuff they like to ignore, like the stuff about not divorcing or anything that doesn't align with their business ideals of making money off the members

byu actually does have a bubble tea shop, but they make it without any real tea

real talk they have been trying to talk my argentine mormon aunt into giving up her matcha and it just makes her laugh
