Sunlight is a excellant cleanser.
good.
I think businesses all over American should start doing this, and rid themselves in one fell swoop of the liberals within.
Well, that’s fifty job openings for the Class of 2012 to go after.
I think their stance is an admission that they are not perfect. I wonder how many liars are left..........
Good, ...now name the 50+ Professors & Staff so that we can stop some other University/College from hiring them.
ping! Look there’s 50 job openings ...
Good and bad.
They’re identifying one particular sin group. But then, what about gossips, liars, thieves, people with critical attitudes? Those are sins too, and just as damaging.
What are the other “activities” beyond homosexuality? Porn, masturbation etc?
My pipe dream is that a similar letter would be issued by "Catholic" university Georgetown .....
I just looked @ their web page and it looks like this “Christian” Collage may be on the Liberal Side. I did not see ANY Doctinal Statmene but I DID see a “Intercultural Services & Programs’ Section. ???!!!

I certainly hope they aren’t bruised by the door hitting them on their asses on their way out the door.
Is the Georgia Baptist Convention affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention?
By their fruits ye shall know them.
Men loved darkness rather than Light.
No problem...I know for a fact that there are lots of unemployed Ph.D.’s in various fields who will be more than happy to take those jobs.
There is some good news.. New Sodom is not accepted by everyone..
NEXT; hiring practices should go under severe review that allowed hiring these reprobates..
No doubt there are a few stealth candidates left.. with questionable “values”..
Evidently “Baptist” don’t mean what it used to mean..
It is just a “word”...
How about having sex before married? Is it part of the pledge too?
Take out the restrictions on alcohol usage and see how many sign. I couldn’t sign this for that one reason. I like a beer with dinner every so often.
Everything else I have no problem with.
