Oh my goodness, a PROTESTANT College wants a PROTESTANT faculty!, and it turns out Roman Catholics are NOT the same as PROTESTANTS!
"The horror, the horror of it all."
Do you ever wonder what folks would stress about if they "had a life"?
This is series! A Moose bit my sister as she was cutting the cheese.
Don't patronize me.
So they don't require faculty to be Protestant in a real sense. You are probably using the term "protestant" in a false sense--a lot of people use it to mean non-Catholic or anti-Catholic. As this imbroglio illustrates, in fact a Catholic cannot teach at Wheaton, so their policy is that they are open to anyone who can subscribe to their broadly evangelical doctrinal statement who is also not a Catholic. I wonder what would happen if an Eastern Orthodox were to say, "hey, I can sign that statement in good faith--no, it doesn't include everything that I as an Orthodox believe, but neither does it include anything that an Orthodox cannot at least put up with"? I bet they'd be readier to employ such a person than a Catholic who says he can sign it.
