Yep.
Typically, the benefit of a religious school is that it's possible to study, without blasting music and drugged-out kids staggering around till 4 a.m. And if you're a girl, you don't have to walk down the hall to the bathroom dressed in armor, since every conceivable public and private space is co-ed.
In a word, religious schools—where people actually practice a religion—are where you have to go if you want a normal life. They are the way the rest of the country used to be. What that girl was doing there was enjoying the benefits of civilization while waging her special war against them.
“I’m not friends with anyone from my university.”
Why is that?
I dug further into this story. Basically....she was one semester away from graduation. Whatever she was studying...will have some fair limits on crossing over to another college. So, I’d take a guess that she’s got at least three semesters of college left now. Just another year of your life...and probably another $15,000 in tuition and costs. Maybe it’s worth the consequences....but I kinda doubt it.
It is a private school and if you are a student you agree to an honor code in order to attend. The school is well within their rights.
When I was at BYU, I was involved in a protest because a friend who was in her last semester was expelled because she started attending a Christian church instead of the LDS one and had her scholarships retroactively cancelled. The school in that case was in the wrong because AT THE TIME, their Honor Code did not state or even imply that leaving the LDS church was a violation of the code. If it had it would not have been an issue. She didn’t violate the Honor Code, and still maintained an ‘ecclesiastical endorsement’ from her new pastor (something all students are required to have).
When I left the LDS church about a year later, BYU put a hold on my records for a ‘library fine’ for a book I never checked out (I had already left the school earlier that year) and thus costing me over 2 years worth credits and forcing me to start my BA degree over. However, right after that, the BYU Honor Code was changed to state that leaving the LDS church is a violation of their Honor Code and thus now they can properly expel you for violating it.
This lesbian girl should have known that she was violating school rules by engaging in such behavior (I refuse to call it marriage). Actions have consequences.
More importantly, she is violating God’s rules and that should be a huge concern for her.
Probably more educating and less leftist propaganda going on there
She learned she could make herself a victum and sue.
You expressed this PERFECTLY. As Western Civilization falls it is not utopia taking its place, but chaos. Reminds me of some people who say they understand the difference between right and wrong and don't need a bible to tell them. They miss the fact that they are living in what remains of a Christian society and they are marinated in it, even if unwillingly. Crush the godly and find out just how not-nice things will be.
Already happens in the UK. It has happened to him twice.
//.she was one semester away from graduation. //
Then she should have been smart and waited to ‘get married’
I was in midst of program at state university when I married my dear husband. The department head made it clear he did not approve of women getting married while in the program. So... I hid it until I graduated. Consequences, he would not recommend me to an architectural or design firm for a position. This truly did hurt me as it was 1979... Midst of the Carter malaise. Should not have happened, all others achieved immediate employment. Our graduating class was only ten people. Even the firm I had interned with...architect told me he could not hire me because I was married and would be getting preggers any day! I told him I was not newly married, two years married and we were not planning to start having kids in the near term.
Funny.. Out of desperation I took a sales job with an agency that called on architects and met this same idiot when he came to one of their cocktail events. Even funnier...he was engaged to one of my coworkers.... He was embarrassed to say the least. Crazy world! This was in a public university...now they wish to control what a private university can do? Screw the Govt. University...they didn’t build that and they didn’t pay for it...the taxpayers do. PRIVATE citizens PAY for the Christian Universities...don’t like the rules? Leave!
My husband’s grandparents went through something similar. His grandfather was older and a bus driver for the school district. At the time the condition was bus drivers could not be married at all. His grandmother was a senior in High School but aged 18. They got married in September and hid it until graduation in May. We still have the graduation/marriage announcement where they stated they were married the previous fall.
I did not change to my married name until I received my degree. I feel so bad still, I love my husband and proud to take his name. He supported me through getting my degree and had no problem with it.... Love him so very much. Amazing man!
There was a pastor prosecuted in Red Deer, Alberta. He was preaching on that, and the human rights commission got him.
Well gee, let me guess...
She posted it on her freakin' Facebook site. No digging into her private life was necessary; she advertised it for all to see.
You can’t get much more ‘butch’ than the ‘husband’. About as far as you can get from a ‘lipstick’.
There you go, cause and effect.
I did not see any photos, thanks for the info.
