The Muslims Students Association is a Bowdoin Student Group.

Have their leaders been presented with the same Diktat?

[yldstrk]

Does the Moslem Association have to admit Christians and Jewish students? Does the black student union have to admit whites and Asians?

[Westbrook]

How about forcing the Black students’ groups to accept whites for leadership?

How about forcing the women’s students’ groups to accept men for leadership?

What a crock of simmering hypocrisy.

“they are LGBTIQA”

I really can’t keep up with what all those letters even mean.

" Bowdoin Christian Fellowship (BCF) volunteer leaders Rob and Sim Gregory with a “non-discrimination” statement. This statement required, among other things, that the Gregorys open BCF leadership up to students of any sexual orientation. As reported in the Bowdoin Orient, Dean of Students Tim Foster explained that “If someone’s participating in an organization and they are LGBTIQA and they are not allowed to participate in that organization because of their sexual orientation or they cannot lead that organization because of their sexual orientation, then that’s discrimination.” Foster sharpened the point: “And that is a violation of Maine law and therefore also a violation of College law.” But that was not all, per the Orient. The college needed to know more about the people who were influencing its students:"

While I can not speak to his accuracy as far as the law is concerned, I can say with no hesitation that the Constitution of Maine protects the Bowdoin Christian Fellowship (BCF) volunteer leaders Rob and Sim Gregory.

Here is Article One Section three of the Maine State Constitution, a section that will be made stronger in the Republic of Maine Constitution voted on June 12, 2018.

Here it is as it stand now:

nstitute government, and to alter, reform, or totally change the same, when their safety and happiness require it.

Section 3.  Religious freedom; sects equal; religious tests prohibited; religious teachers.  All individuals have a natural and unalienable right to worship Almighty God according to the dictates of their own consciences, and no person shall be hurt, molested or restrained in that person's liberty or estate for worshipping God in the manner and season most agreeable to the dictates of that person's own conscience, nor for that person's religious professions or sentiments, provided that that person does not disturb the public peace, nor obstruct others in their religious worship; -- and all persons demeaning themselves peaceably, as good members of the State, shall be equally under the protection of the laws, and no subordination nor preference of any one sect or denomination to another shall ever be established by law, nor shall any religious test be required as a qualification for any office or trust, under this State; and all religious societies in this State, whether incorporate or unincorporate, shall at all times have the exclusive right of electing their public teachers, and contracting with them for their support and maintenance.

Just tear it up and burn down the administration building.

Worked for the Left and it’s the only thing they understand.

They have to know we can’t be F’d with either. That’s the basic problem.

LGBTIQA

I?
Q?
A?

It appears I need to be caught up with the definition of the new perversions.

That sound you all are hearing in the background is long-term Bowdoin President Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain ordering his troops to fix bayonets.

Again.
