In historic first, Baylor will allow gay Christian advocates on campus

Faced with a mounting backlash against a Turning Point USA rally to be held on campus, Baylor University administrators have granted a coalition of student groups permission to hold a counter-event on campus with two well-known gay Christians as speakers.

This is believed to be the first time Baylor has allowed an openly gay Christian advocacy speaker on campus for such an event.

Whether related or not, the university also announced April 7 that Willie Nelson will appear in concert on campus in May. The country singer reportedly has not been on campus since he left there as a student in 1954.

The “All Are Neighbors” event will be held on campus April 22, the same day as the TPUSA “This Is the Turning Point” tour on campus in Waco Hall, the largest auditorium on campus. No information is yet available on where the “All Are Neighbors” event will be held.

I always thought it funny that I took square dancing for my P.E. credit. And this was on campus at a BAPTIST school.

If anything, our past and current sins are SCARS, which we try to hide at our own shame.

The landmark 8-1 USSC ruling (minus Ketanji), struck a powerful blow against the radical LGBT agenda that has dominated the US. “MassResistance,” the pro-family organization, has long declared:
<><>that the LGBT revolution rests on blatant lies
<><>lies that homosexuality is “immutable”..... like race,
<><>that its “healthy”..... like traditional marriage,
<><>that its “deserving” of being force-fed in schools and society.

You’re either Christian or a rainbow person. You can’t be both.

There was a speaker at Baylor’s graduation ceremony several years ago who openly spouted the leftist theology, to the raucous applause of a few in the audience.

I think the administration later expressed regret for inviting him (a former or current pastor of a renegade liberal “baptist” church in Fort Worth) but the damage had been done.

It’s a buyer’s market.

Satan is ALWAYS buying.

And evidently Baylor is selling out.
