I wonder why it is that so many people who have discussions "with the Lord" come away with the idea that he wants them to exclude "the wrong sort of people"?
OTOH, I think it's sort of cool watching the evangelicals getting a tasts of some of the goods they've been handing out for ever so long....

eric,
are you implying that evangelicals would be the right sort of people for them to keep - if so then who in your opinion would you have selected to remove from campus or suggested that they remove ?

"are you implying that evangelicals would be the right sort of people for them to keep"
No. I was commenting on the way people who say that they converse with God often seem to come away from those "conversations" with the impression that God wants them to exclude someone. Seemsto be a pretty common theme in all the "monotheist" religions I've encountered.

As a private club, any institution like this has a right to exclude members of other clubs, and vice versa. "freedom of assembly" in our constitution may well be the justification, never mind "freedom of religion".
