Eastern Mennonite University in Virginia could be the first Mennonite institution to reverse a current policy that prohibits tenure-line faculty from pursuing same-sex relationships.

Harvard, Yale and other Ivy League schools were once also Christian.

Once again, I know of no Christian colleges that allow gay marriage.

They are fruity leftists.

Wikipedia:

In the last 20 years in particular, EMU has attracted people from all over the world and various faiths who are interested in the way it combines peace, social justice, simplicity and community. EMU orients its students toward “experiential learning” (i.e. hands-on learning, connected to real-world work), “creation care” (environmental sustainability), and “cross-cultural engagement” (required of all undergraduates)

Colleges like Baylor and TCU are starting to cave into the gay agenda as well.

Goshen and Eastern Mennonite were considered orthodox when I went to school at Malone. I guess they are now apostate

"There's been prayer."

Prayer has happened.

When God’s word is clear about something that is sinful, you don’t pray about it. You OBEY.

For instance, It would be an insult to God to ask Him: “Should we still call ourselves Christian and hire adulterous teachers?”

It’s all about “What denomination?”. So many denominations thing themselves Christian but aren’t.

*8Two universities that belong to the Council of Christian Colleges and Universities, an organization dedicated to delivering Christ-centered education at all of its schools — Goshen College in Indiana and Eastern Mennonite University in Virginia**

Will they lose students? Probably

There's been prayer. We've listened to a variety of voices from our constituencies and stake holders.

Should have listened to the God you profess to believe in instead.

They don’t even say they prayed about it. Their excuse uses the weasel language “There’s been prayer.” They are so anti-God that they will not say they did the act.
