Vanderbilt’s Crack-Down on Religious Groups

Diabolical wickedness to the core.
The true Christians on this God hating campus must pray for God to intervene and show them whether to stay or leave.
Where are the parents coming down on this Godless tyranny?

I salute the members of Vanderbilt for standing up to this atrocity -this war on Christian values. Of course, they would never consider adoption of the same policy to muslim groups. Of course, this policy would not be enforced on Gay/lesbian groups. There is a reason Christians are targeted here. Its like, asking a Conservative Republican to lead a Liberal Democrat organization. What sense does it make? None. But what will it accomplish? Complete destruction of that group. Surely, the Conservative Republican at the head of the democrat group would never work towards a means of bettering a group he disagrees with. The same applies here.

All Vanderbilt did here is simply open the doorway for some outside group to get in and ruin a good...

Exactly. I'm a conservative evangelical who thinks homosexuality is a grievous sin against God, violating His law, violating nature, ignoring truth, ignoring what it means to be human. Now, does Vanderbilt think it would be OK if I joined the campus GLBT club and ran for leadership there? That would be extremely obnoxious, of course, and uncomfortable for everyone involved, but would it be OK with them? What about the rights of the homosexuals to say "hey, stop!" And if that's OK for the homosexuals, why wouldn't be OK for the Christians?

If the leaders of this university desire this dictatorial policy on campus, do they desire it for the entire nation? Are they teaching this to the students (who will be leaders in our nation one day)? If so, they are patently against the first amendment, which means they don't really believe in free speech or freedom of religion.

Would these same fools ask any of the following groups to make similar concessions?:
Muslim
Women
Minority
Homosexual
etc.

The answer is, of course, no.

Yes so I think they need to get a Baptist or a Muslim to head up the GLBTG group on campus...and while they're at it protest the hiking club because they discriminate against people in wheelchairs, or the shooting club (do they have one??) because they discriminate against blind people....

The purpose of the secular humanist is to replace Christ with their ideology, their meaningless faith.

Why would a non-Christian lead a Christian group? Why would a non Catholic lead a Catholic group? These leaders are senseless. The elitist pagan progressives are without direction or common sense. These young people have more common sense.

They would lead them so they can derail them, Joycey...pure and simple. Drive them straight into the progressive ditch of moral relativism.

As a grad of Peabody-Vandy in 1961, I am outraged at this formerly pro-Judeo-Christian worldview campus trying to appease the secular humanist socialists. They ought to be ashamed. The alumni should rebel and forcefully protest this stupidity. No more funds for them.

How much sense does this make??? The "Diversity Bludgeon" strikes again, as one student pointed out, to stamp out the right of religious expression and association. How many Christians are going to want to join up with the local atheist student organization? And just what would motivate an atheist, say, to join, much less run, a Christian group? Not good will and a desire for mutual tolerance and understanding. It is motivated, pure and simple, by the encroaching "progressive" desire to criminalize faith as "discriminatory" and attack and deligitimize religious values that stand in the way of an "anything goes" society that is their model of true "freedom." If people want to associate with others seeking diversity and tolerance, join...

an interfaith campus community. Just look what they are doing to any form of religious expression in the public square and if you can say that is seeking tolerance, then freedom and common sense truly are dead. This is the epitome of intolerance, hypocrisy, persecution of faith, and just plain stupidity.
