This is Not a Day Care. It’s a University!
Oklahoma Wesleyan University ^ | Dr. Everett Piper, President, Oklahoma Wesleyan University

Posted on 11/29/2015 6:40:40 PM PST by QT3.14

This past week, I actually had a student come forward after a university chapel service and complain because he felt “ "victimized" by a sermon on the topic of 1 Corinthians 13. It appears that this young scholar felt offended because a homily on love made him feel bad for not showing love! In his mind, the speaker was wrong for making him, and his peers, feel uncomfortable.

I'm not making this up. Our culture has actually taught our kids to be this self-absorbed and narcissistic! Any time their feelings are hurt, they are the victims! Anyone who dares challenge them and, thus, makes them "feel bad" about themselves, is a "hater," a "bigot," an "oppressor," and a "victimizer."

I have a message for this young man and all others who care to listen. That feeling of discomfort you have after listening to a sermon is called a conscience! An altar call is supposed to make you feel bad! It is supposed to make you feel guilty! The goal of many a good sermon is to get you to confess your sins-not coddle you in your selfishness. The primary objective of the Church and the Christian faith is your confession, not your self-actualization!

So here' s my advice:

In the meantime, how long before U of Missouri caves and changes their school logo to illustrate what they have turned into, instead of the 'Tiger's they claim to be.

No, it’s a baby-sitting service with tenure.

We need to shout from the rooftops what these radicals who want to destroy our natural rights encapsulated (not granted) in the Bill of Rights what they are:

EXTREMISTS

I am thankful, in a way, that I am young enough that I will get to see how these precious snowflakes function in 20 years.

“So here’ s my advice:”

And here’s mine...

Get a cage
Put the liberal in the cage
Weld the door shut
Walk away.

Existential Cage Theory. Cage liberals and society continues to exist. Do not cage them and they will put you on cattle cars eventually and kill you.

Yep.
Guaranteed.

BTW, the ads from the ammo retailers this week was hot and heavy. Serious bargains. Blew my budget.

I envy you. I don’t really need any ammo anymore because I lost all my guns in a terrible boating accident. The seas here in the Mohave desert can be brutal on an inexperienced sailor like me.

Our “culture” didn’t do this, our universities did.

Too bad. Because you never get of “their” list. May as well have a reason for being on it.........

Just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you.
