The opinion (which I have not read) apparently allows for the issue to be remanded back to the 9th Circuit for a determination of whether or not the “inclusivity” requirement was being applied in a discriminatory fashion by the Hastings Law School. Seems that the Christians were required to be inclusive of all comers but the Latinos, gays, etc. were not. Oh dear. Either inclusive means all or its... gasp... discrimination!
The “inclusivists” may end up being hoist on their own petards on this one.
Could make for an interesting meeting, except that I’m willing to bet that if any Christian student showed up at a Muslim-oriented group and bagan talking about his faith, it would be considered a hate crime.
I have seen so many from the so-called “Christian Left” make that claim as if our Lord and Savior went around partying it up with sinners. The other one they they love is the verse about “judge not”, always used out of context. They know just enough Scripture to make fools of themselves using it.
How right you are and well said.
Just saying that had He avoided really big sinners, etc, He would have been alone.
Let em’ in then kick em’ out once any hostility is shown towards the group.
Why does that bother you?
Next lawsuit using this precedent should be straight men suing to be allowed into sororities.
Don’t throw it on me - that’s deception! Why did you feel the need to post it - was the question.
Are you like this with every one you meet?
He went among them to bring to them the Good News of salvation through Him, and Him alone, to the Father, and to also preach the judgement of eternal punishment for those who rejected His message, punishment in an eternal Hell of fire and brimstone, where the worm dieth not. One study has shown that He preached on Hell more than any other topic, disproving the “Chriatian Left’s” projection of Him as some socialistic peacenik who “hung out” wi sinners and partookmof their sinful lifestyles. He told the adulteress to “ go and sin no more”. The Left has no use for the real Jesus, Son Of God, or His whole message not excluding or adding one jot or tittle. If they can’t distort Biblical Christianity into something that serves their socialist agenda, they dismiss it. The one thing they want nothing to do with is the Bible in its entirety and Jesus’ message of exclusivity as far as the way to Heaven. It’s inclusive in being available tomall, but exclusive in that there’s only one, narrow way.
I don’t recall mentioning anything about left or right or conservative or liberal or any thing political.
Do you always use manipulation to avoid answering a question?
Now you got a learning lesson on wisdom and discernment from a Holy Spirit filled Christian. Pointing out what you ‘claim’ not to see/know for it’s NOT invisible.
Manipulation is your tool but it doesn’t work on Spirit filled Christians.
Along with not answering a question regarding your own post - but instead chooses deceptive means of not answering it - puts on light on your ‘fruit’.
“For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.”
Based on your posts it's unlikely that you are going to say a prayer for me so let me say a prayer for both of us.
Dear Ancient of Days, I pray to you through the Intercessor, Your son, Jesus. He prayed in John 17 for the unity of the church, that all who are in You and You that are in us can live harmonious lives and work toward the Kingdom that will surely come. Please bring peace between us and instead of bickering back and forth, use us for Your will and Your way. In Your name I pray, Amen.
