Good news: Vanderbilt ties racial justice to religion in new program [View all] guillaumeb Sep 2017 OP

Why did you put this in the Religion forum? edhopper Sep 2017 #1

Somewhat clueless about Christ's teachings aren't we. amalasuntha Sep 2017 #4

Well, the part about the Vanderbilt Divinity School is one reason. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #5

No I am asking you, edhopper Sep 2017 #21

You asked: "Why did you put this in the Religion forum?". guillaumeb Sep 2017 #22

go back to you reply in the edhopper Sep 2017 #24

Oh I understand. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #25

Hmm trotsky Sep 2017 #2

Whenever a theist group tries to create coalitions Lordquinton Sep 2017 #3

Have you attempted to join this coalition? guillaumeb Sep 2017 #7

Yes, and the org required that I pretend, or lie, in order to meet qualifications for membership. AtheistCrusader Sep 2017 #12

Which organization? guillaumeb Sep 2017 #13

Boy Scouts of America for one. AtheistCrusader Sep 2017 #16

Same here. Act_of_Reparation Sep 2017 #18

Sad that in a country that was (supposedly) founded on tolerance guillaumeb Sep 2017 #19

Everyone freaked out the last time the Boy Scouts of America's congressional charter was questioned AtheistCrusader Sep 2017 #23

So right here, yep, you confirm that you are indeed OK with excluding non-believers. trotsky Sep 2017 #31

Something WAS confirmed. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #33

So, excluding non-believers is ok? Lordquinton Sep 2017 #34

What in the original article leads one to believe guillaumeb Sep 2017 #36

Are you being a literalist when it comes to exclusionary language? Lordquinton Sep 2017 #38

Have you contacted the program managers to ask if there is a place for agnostics? guillaumeb Sep 2017 #6

Based on the number of atheists I know who have attended divinity school, trotsky Sep 2017 #8

A weak attempt to control the discussion on your part. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #9

Sometimes I don't even know if you're serious. trotsky Sep 2017 #10

You are pointing out your own agenda. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #11

I ignored the rest of your post because it's an attempt at deflection. trotsky Sep 2017 #14

The excerpts that you cited do not actually support what you are claiming. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #15

Ah yes, your last fallback. "That's just your opinion, man." trotsky Sep 2017 #17

Not a fallback. Your excerpts simply do not support your framing. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #20

Yeah, that's just, like, your opinion man. trotsky Sep 2017 #28

Maybe stop telling atheists that their learned experiences are wrong Lordquinton Sep 2017 #27

The poster excerpted pieces that do not support what the poster is claiming. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #30

That is simply your opinion, and you are entitled to it. n/t trotsky Sep 2017 #32

Except they actually did Lordquinton Sep 2017 #35

You, and others, made the claim. Prove it. guillaumeb Sep 2017 #37

Ok Lordquinton Sep 2017 #39
