Still why do some here who claim to be Christian are defending this behavior is still puzzling to me?

the rebuttal is always the same give some liberal PC agenda put the focuse elsewhere, distract from the core of the issue.

True Christains are not into being PC but up holding the comandments of the Lord.

“As many of you know that for the past two years of my show I have been trying to interview members of the *GLBT community so the stories that are being told will help educate, entertain and hopefully change perceptions people have about the community. Today’s guest Chad Hardy wants to do the same”

*GLBT lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender

Your question is honest, and despite our differences I really do respect that about you. I can only speak for myself. Even though my answer might be susceptible to being twisted around by others, I will do my best to answer in the spirit you asked.

I believe that rescinding Chad Hardy's degree is a disproportionate punishment and is unjust. Mercy is much more powerful than brute force. I believe that God is both merciful and just. I believe that people hiding within cloaks of big powerful institutions often act ruthlessly and mercilessly.

I am not defending Chad’s behavior. I have seen the calendar (SIL got one as a joke in 2007) and told my SIL I found it distasteful.

Chad Hardy’s sins are between him and God.

And BYU has a right to have a code on honor, I have attended several schools with similar codes. No biggie.

My problem with this whole thing is the timing. Action should have been taken sooner, rather then let him walk and then withhold his degree.
