    .....“the Human Rights Campaign is effectively calling for religious colleges and schools to be coerced into the sexual revolution or stripped of accreditation,” Mohler said this week in a column and on his Briefing podcast. “... In terms of accreditation, that is an atomic bomb.

    “In clear text, for all the world to see, the Human Rights Campaign summons the Biden administration to deny accreditation – or, at the very least, to facilitate the denial of accreditation – to Christian institutions, Christian colleges and universities, and, for that matter, any other religious institution or school that does not meet the demands of the LGBTQ orthodoxy. This would mean abandoning biblical standards for teaching, hiring, admissions, housing, and student life. It would mean that Christian schools are no longer Christian.....””

    The secularists and the LGBT community are targeting Christian colleges, universities, other schools over our religious beliefs. It is an attempt to force them to choose between their religious beliefs and the doctrines of their operating denomination or losing accreditation. There is no tolerance for a diversity of opinion and belief in what they are trying to do.

    This is an attempt to prevent the accreditation of places of education that hold to and live according to fundamental biblical teachings. They would dispose of freedom and liberty to impose their intolerant dogma upon others.

    I wonder if this includes the several hundred private Islamic schools in the US that also have both accreditation and similar religious viewpoints on LGBT.

    Not sure about that,.

    In fact, I would strongly disagree.

    In any event:

    The link is dated from the middle of last month:

    Thursday, November 19, 2020

    If this was such a vital issue that needed our attention, why did you wait 2 1/2 Weeks (after the article appeared) to post it?

    It seems rather "stale" for a Current Event.

    I had a seed up on this issue before. It was taken down by moderation because in it one side referred to the actions of the other as jackboot. This one is from a Christian news source and used more mild words to describe the attempted actions of the advocacy side here.

    Good question but somehow based on past issues, I doubt it.

    I'm not really up on American terminology. What does accreditation confer?

    Don't religious groups try and impose their intolerant dogma on others?

    Do you know what's odd? All the oppressed victims the left panders to would kill each other if they had the chance. blacks hate Mexicans, Mexicans hate blacks, they both hate gays and Muslims hate everyone.

    Yet only one group has the majority of their members (53% as per Gallup 2019) supporting criminalization of homosexuality, that is evangelicals.
    Not blacks
    Not Hispanics
    Not Muslims
