Thanks for posting this, Louisiana. My blood pressure just dropped 20 points. Now, the questions are "Did a major newspaper lie?" (can't believe THAT would happen /s/) or is it CYA time for Mr. Camp?
The article makes my blood boil if it is true. The response posted by the college is wonderful in content. However, both cannot be true. I am inclined to not believe the MSM NEWSPAPER, FOR VERY OBVIOUS NATIONAL REASONS. It seems that Camp is saying Christians must move away from a CRUSADER CHRISTIANITY version of Christianity - which was absolutely IMMORAL AND EVIL. Jesus never taught us to take up the sword to convert people. This has left a terrible impression in the minds of millions in the mid-east as to what a Christian really is. Many of them view it as a warring religion like them (historically) which is inferior in its values and virtues like the hypocritical culture of the church in America today. They also see Christianity as a pawn of American Colonialism.
Few have seen what it really means to know Christ.
