My favorite line is Falwell claiming: “Liberty’s actions are antithetical to the teachings of Christ,”

I don’t really see what Falwell is hoping to get from this lawsuit. If he thinks the board is going to re-instate him, he’s as crazy as Trump. Also, if this actually goes to trial, Falwell will have to take the stand and testify under oath about what happened with the pool boy and his other questionable behaviour.

Or the last. Maybe the swingers websites will have an ad for some Virginia-based couple.

The cat is out of the bag. Falwell, Jr. is out and he has he $10 million, so why not?

No one has said that “conservative Christians are somehow further from God” anywhere in this thread. Project much?

Better how? Because it looks like they have this veneer of piety, speak the right “conservative” Christian lingo, and have a code of conduct, policies, and positions that on paper are conservative. Yet beneath it all is the truth: It is hypocrisy and lip service as the actions clearly show.

A cursory view of Scriptures reveals that the biggest beef and anger of Christ was hypocrisy. I seem to recall Christ saying something in Matthew 15 about people who honor him with their lips.

Rest assured there is plenty of the hypocrisy of progressive Christian leaders (Bill Hybels and the Willow Creek debacle comes to mind). And that also been pointed out in this forum and elsewhere.

Finally, LU is noted for insisting that secondary and tertiary issues and debates within the body of Christ be elevated to primary issues (i.e. one determines if you are really a Christian or not). Example A is YEC. Example B is woman pastors.

that’s because you only see what you want to see.

TV,

Would expelling the immoral brother mean he is allowed to get a severance package (or if you prefer get his tithes and offerings back) on the way out the door?

What about the Board and remaining leadership for making amends to all those students and faculty who condemned Falwell on his sins and confronted him on it but were punished, expelled, fired, and sanctioned by the Board? This is no different than David conspiring to have Uriah killed in battle so he could cover up his sin.

LU’s commitment to God’s Word is laughable considering Falwell’s wide-ranging sins go back years and the Board did nothing.

I am not excusing Falwell’s sins, nor am I denying LU’s imperfections, but I still consider it a better school than those so-called progressive Christian ones, like Fuller Seminary, Hope College, and GCC. I just find it highly hypocritical for progressive Christians to lament on the sins of conservative Christians by claiming that because we sin, we are somehow farther from God than they are. To me, it looks like the progressives don’t care about God or Jesus, they only care about a revolution based on Marxism.

The same cannot be said about Grove City College, a school whose employees, both directly and indirectly, while online, glorify sexual immorality and ungodly Communist political system. Furthermore, these GCC faculty members, are publicly demonizing God-fearing Christians who are standing up against these wicked deeds. The fact is that GCC continues them to be on their payroll (I am not disputing their right to hire whoever they want as a private organization) clearly shows their commitment to following God’s word in comparison with LU.
