BYU Religious Education Statement on Diversity and Inclusion

The Lord invites “all  to come unto him and partake of his goodness; and he denieth none that come unto him, black and white, bond and free, male and female . . . and all are alike unto God” (2 Nephi 26:33, emphasis added). Expressions of bigotry and discrimination—whether intended or not—on any basis, including but not limited to race, gender, sexual orientation, age, and disability assume superiority and are contrary to the teachings of Jesus Christ.  We affirm our commitment to stand against all such expressions, and we affirm our commitment, in all of our endeavors, to follow the example of the Savior in being loving and inclusive, especially to the marginalized. When students, staff, and faculty extend common courtesy, empathy, and understanding, we manifest our love for Christ and for all God’s children.
