(CNSNews.com) – The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) plans to launch a new “think tank” designed to “establish best practices and policies so college athletes and coaches can fully participate in their chosen sport regardless of religious beliefs, sexual orientation, and gender identity or expression.”

During a meeting Tuesday and Wednesday entitled “Seeking Common Ground: Creating a Respectful Athletic Climate for Athletes and Coaches of All Religious Perspectives, Sexual Orientation, and Gender Identity or Expression,” the NCAA will “develop the first-ever suggested guidelines so faith-based schools, public schools, and private secular schools across the country can provide inclusive and respectful athletic environments,” according to a press release on the event distributed by the National Center for Lesbian Rights and the LGBT Sports Coalition.

This is what we get when we FAIL to OBEY God.
For it is written: Those who support homosexuals are against our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
These anti Christ people only bring destruction on us ALL.
I have NO sympathy for homosexuals!

Homosexuality is a "Mark" of disobedience.
Someone once asked The answer is in the definition of "REPROBATE". And the reason"why" is given in the Bible.

God has a cure for homosexuals.

"Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect
that God is just,
that his justice cannot sleep forever."

“establish best practices and policies so college athletes and coaches can fully participate in their chosen sport regardless of religious beliefs, sexual orientation, and gender identity or expression.”

Obviously this policy means that if a coach or a student has religious beliefs that homosexuality is a sin, they are out of a job or out of the team.

Participation in what?

If they want to be part of a team then just go and sign up. Just realize that the people in the locker room are not there for you to leer at, and that the vast majority of them are not gay, and wont appreciate you trying to hit on them.

Whatever your sexual perversions are, do it on your own time.

I don’t want to see a fag swish the net or a homo quarterback get penalized repeated for delay of game when he has his hands under the Center’s balls...so no....: )

Womens basketball and softball are already filled with them. Girly men cannot compete with real men. You’ll get a queer every now and then, but Jason Collins and Michael Sam do not represent the average gay man.

Except heterosexual Christians....those can go screw themselves as far as liberals are concerned.

The “religious beliefs” phrase is for mooselimbs to wear their stupid body sheets for women.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

A person ends up a great athlete or not. Promoting homosexual human athletes is about as sane as promoting homosexual equine athletes.

They have the genetics and skills or they don’t. And Sams proves that media hype doesn’t equate to on-field quality with ANYONE.

Oh. I keyed in on the word launch in the title so first saw NCAA as NASA and was wondering WTaF.

Any coach who cares about winning doesn't even care about an athletes sex life as long as it doesn't affect performance.

This is not only an extension of the homosexual agenda, it is an extension of the whole "winning isn't what's important" mantra. That attitude MIGHT be okay for five year olds, but it will destroy collegiate and professional sports.

Just stop! Enough with all the homosexual stuff. Its 1.5 percent of the population. No need to do back flips for them.
And transgender is a made up political silly nonsense thing. Its a MENTAL ILLNESS!
