University Tells Student to Remove Cross Necklace

Would you prefer more input from atheists? How would they do things differently?

Christians pretty much own this country. no amount of crying victim is going to change this fact.
 
I'm curious to see an example of a University that celebrated other religious holidays except for Christmas. I can see if the University in question be a private one such as Islamic or Hindu owned, but you could also see a Catholic University not wishing to display one on Ramadan too. Can you provide a news story please? :confused:

He's already says he can't/won't back it up. He claims his "evidence" is purely anecdotal personal experience that he saw himself. No one is buying it.

Christmas is now far more than a religious holiday and it's odd this isn't being acknowledged. It is celebrated throughout all the democracies and one's religion, or lack of it, has nothing to do with the the Christmas season, or its spirit. What 'Joy" is there in Ramadan, for example. Not knocking it at all but if Ramadan ever ends up being as much fun as Christmas we'll probably get into it.

Many religious groups seem to be celebrating Christmas and more power to them. The rest of the year they can do whatever it is they do but they want to have fun as much as anyone else, and be good neighbors with the decorations, small gifts and all.

What a bunch of fun free grouches there are in this world.
 
You seem disappointed. Do you have another preference?

Yes. There are loads of people that actually need help in this world, so I prefer people to not to volunteer themselves as victims for no realistic reason.
 
Here's another source:



Holy crap. How did an idiot like that get such a high position? Must be political payback for something.

Probably White's stacks of impressive academic achievements. The guy recently requested a cut in his own pay to balance CSU's budget as well, which shows a level of personal integrity that this nation is lacking. I'm also finding it very difficult to believe this orientation supervisor since I cannot find this alleged policy, nor am I finding any reason to give the benefit of a doubt to this guy. He gets thrown into the spotlight for a big societal no-no in this country, conveniently points the finger at the big suit to take the blame off of him, and we're supposed to believe this guy? Show me evidence that this is White's policy, and we can move on from there.

Personally, I don't have a problem with this alleged policy if it prohibits the open display of all religious items, regardless of the religion it represents.
 
I posted a tiny occurrence that is anything but rare or minor_

This is but one of many attacks on Christianity that has been occurring regularly and for quite some time_

And if you seriously don't know this then you are far too uninformed to participate in this discussion_

I suppose this is the case for most people who get their news exclusively from source's such as MSNBC_

If I posted examples of persecution by your standards, I could include Romans feeding Christians to lions in the colosseum_

But such historical extremes aren't necessary with so many modern day examples still occurring regularly_
LOL...where are these horrible ATTACKS upon christians in the US? Let's see them...PRODUCE!!!

The point is, this is what you have as an example, this is your standard, a young girl is told by a single administrator to not display a religious icon.....and you start talking about Romans and lions!
 
How would these compare to examples of hatred carried out by non-believers?
Which ones? Where are these examples? Show me these attacks by "non-believers" in the US.

So far we have a little girl.....and her gold cross....being told not to display it....by an college employee.

The horror...the horror......

...and which was instantaneously reversed. "Hardcore" is not exactly how I'd describe The War on Christianity™.
 
such a passionate cry from someone who claims not to have a dog in the fight. I guess you're just their white in shining armor.
The only dog I might have in this fight would be "the enemy of my enemy is my friend"_

Do you realize your irrational hate and fear of Christians reinforces their "victim" status?!

yes. Christians pretty much own this country. no amount of crying victim is going to change this fact.
Such irrational hate and fear of Christianity is indicative of those with poor or disrupted cognitive abilities_

Is your hate and fear truly warranted? Have Christians personally; wronged you? harmed you? taken from you?

The far-left believes hate and fear creates followers which are more emotional, therefore more dedicated_

Did you ever consider the possibility that your hatred of religion might be the result of Marxist indoctrination?!

I don't know whether to laugh or cry reading this. Marxist indoctrination? Do you actually know any Marxists?

Noting that Christians are the majority is fair. Noting that nearly everything favors us over other religions is also fair. There's no reason to go all defensive Marxist mode.

Food for Thought__Had I not posted this incident you would have never heard about it either_

So I'm not in the least bit surprised of your ignorance to just how common this occurrence actually is_

Do you recall what I told you earlier?:
"And if you seriously don't know this then you are far too uninformed to participate in this discussion_

Empi~


You are very poorly informed, Gimme!

then there is the fact that I am a lover of Christ. look, your the one spewing hate in this thread. enemy of my enemy huh?

perhaps your mean spiritd hatefulness is a result of fascist indoctrination?

Not only are you not backing up a claim of it happening all the time, you still fail to comprehend that it in no way compares to REAL oppresion.

And PS, Huffington, MSNBC, yadda yadda DID cover it, and I saw this yawner at Huff before you posted your faux outrage.
 
Can someone please explain to me how wearing a tiny symbol of one's religion possibly be offensive?

I have thrown every possible scenario I can imagine against the wall and thus far nothing has stuck!

Liberals like to complain?

Can I blame Christianity for your writing style?

There really isn't any evidence that this happened.

Carry on.

I definitely do consider the far-left to be an enemy of the United States, Capitalism and The American Dream_

Which does indeed translate to the far-left being my enemy as well__Proudly and Unapologetically! :2usflag:

I'll betcha such blatant honesty was the last thing you big-bad-libbies expected from Lil-ole scrawny me_ :nails

The difference between you guys and me is; I have no fear of letting my prejudices be known to anyone! :thumbs:

(although I really don't equate my "prejudices" to any form of hate)
 
Can I blame Christianity for your writing style?
I view my "writing style" as normal and other's as suspect_

Ever heard of "perspective" Cardinal ??? :giggle1:

There really isn't any evidence that this happened.

Carry on.
I'll have you know that I witnessed Christians being fed to lions on a very old Hollywood movie!

Surely you're not suggesting that Tinseltown would stoop to biblical fraud for the sake of mere profit?!

Next you'll be making wild accusations about Spielberg's depiction of first contact with an Extra Terrestrial?!

(oh ye of little faith)

So your passion is patrtiotic and the passions of those you disagree with is hate. Gotcha. btw... I don't consider you my enemy. I consider you just to be wrong. And somehow between the two of us you think I'm saturated with hate. Go figure.

ps... thought you should know that it is blatantly apparent that when you get your ass handed to you in debate because when you do, you immediately slide into off topic generality rants of all liberals this, marxists that... enemy this and hate that. In short, your content wanes forcing you to subsist on your anger.

I consider the far-left to be my enemy and you liberals are simply their unwitting pawns_

Although without their loyal liberal masses, the far-left admittedly would be little if any threat_

You guys definitely do carry an enormous amount of water to advance their progressive agenda_

I guess you missed my last paragraph that you quoted:

... because you did it again while quoting that.
