Ward's lawsuit against Eastern Michigan University was dismissed. A federal judge has ruled in favor of a public university that removed a Christian student from its graduate program in school counseling over her belief that homosexuality is morally wrong. Monday's ruling, according to Julea Ward's attorneys, could result in Christian students across the country being expelled from public university for similar views.

Christians are going to have to learn to play by the same rules as those who THINK they are winning. Claim discrimination, list themselves as minorities, apply for 'diversity' status in everything (jobs, housing, federal aid), sue for anything and everything (wear those ambulance chasing lawyers to the bone!), go on every t.v. and radio talk show that will have them, picket, protest and have sit-ins. Practice civil disobedience and then claim discrimination when they're arrested; get very beautiful minority celebrities to speak out for them (many, many black and Hispanic Americans are Christians after all!).....I could go on all day because it's already been done, ad nauseum, by the secular crowd. Think it won't work? Then consider the NAACP, Lulac, Cair, and that gay-rights group whose name escapes me, AARP and many others. Or.....we can sit around and whine for the next fifty years.

Not to mention that some churches nowadays require their counselors to have degrees. People who want to go college to become couselors, but don't want to counsel people who have serious sexual deviancy issues is kinda strange to begin with. It would be like going to school to become a psychiatrist and refusing to treat the mentally ill. Anyone remember the big brouhaha in the UK when Muslim medical students didn't wanna wash their hands before doing medical proceedures because of their beliefs?

Amen sister. We're not to fight the way that the world does. No one is whining. Let's not forget folks that alot of these professions came forth from Christian Charity and our Faith. It was Christian Faith and Charity that spawned the whole Medical Field and it was Christain Faith and Charity that gave us the fields of higher learning.

Yes, Christians ARE whining when they moan about being silenced and prevented from expressing their beliefs. Fighting with everything you've got is the way to go. Be pacifist if that's what you believe in; I just don't see standing there watching the lions as they advance. I prefer to shoot them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, Dave....I don't even have a sword! (And what about those lions?) Does the Lord want us not to stand firm in His name? I get mixed messages on this whole thing.
