“This incident should draw attention to the fact that there is a tremendous amount of hostility towards christians and conservatives”
Your post is based on a logical fallacy, overgeneralization. Please avoid doing this in the future because you distract from the logical arguments supporting conservative beliefs.
For more information about fallacies, see Conservapedia. Here’s the write-up about overgeneralization:
Overgeneralization (also called hasty generalization or converse accident) is an error in reasoning which comes about by making a logical leap far greater than what the data allows. Overgeneralization follows the form:
* P is Q
* P is in R
* Therefore R is Q
For example: “I just read that three kids were arrested yesterday for drug possession. Teens in this country are really going downhill!”
Overgeneralization the central problem in trying to conclude something about a population from a non-representative sample, or about a larger group from a non-representative subset of that group.
And, like it or not this perception isn't going away.
This is why I continue to recommend that parents avoid sending kids to liberal arts colleges like this one.
Academia has lots of issues with anti-conservative political bigotry and until it goes away people should stay away from these colleges and unversities and get their secondary education at a community college or a vo-tech.
