It’s incredible how hypocritical some politically-correct individuals are. They claim they should have privacy, when they are the only people in their own minds who deserve that privacy. They claim that religion should not have a place in the public square, and then they would take offense if they could peep in on the fact that someone in a Church, not in the general public square, but a house of worship, or perhaps even in the most reclusive recesses of their own home, said it, they would consider it offensive, when they were the ones taking offense. They are also hypocritical because for some of them, Muslims deserve a special privilege to pray when Christians, to whom prayer to our “Father, who art in heaven” is perhaps just as much important to us. Don’t take my words as truth, but I often almost visualize the Pharisees, Scribes, and the Sadduccees of the time of Jesus Christ, when I hear the words of such people as this crazy woman in Michigan.
My words to her, being as decent of a Christian as I can be, are this:
“You wanted her ad outside of the general public view, or not at the University itself, now be satisfied with it and quit your whining”.
Not to say that angrier expletives were not on my mind, but that’s what is decent and fit to post on FreeRepublic.
But it’s worth discussion. Who of us wouldn’t want to have a roommate who we could trust to have moral standards somewhat close to our own? It sounds as if that’s what this student was trying to find.
Come to think of it, isn’t it a discriminatory hiring practice if an employer wants somebody who is honest, since that discriminates against dishonest people? If they want somebody with a degree, doesn’t that discriminate against people without degrees?
Etc.
The only way we will have a world with no discrimination is if nothing we do or are makes any difference, since we will all have exactly the same outcomes no matter what we do or are. In a totally non-discriminatory world, the people who work will have the same as the people who don’t, the people who kill will have the same living circumstances as those who don’t, etc. Choices won’t matter; nothing will matter.
That is the liberal’s dream and conservatives’ nightmare. But I think if people really thought about it, they wouldn’t like it if their choices made no difference. They could just as well be barbie dolls in such a case.
