To ensure pleasing the University, perhaps the Christian schools should just change the names of some of their courses, while keeping the content the same.

"Christianity in American History" becomes "Bath House - the Engine of Progress"

Faith and Science" becomes "Transgender Awareness"

and "Physical Education" becomes "Man-Boy Wrestling"

You gotta believe the average lefty admissions committee would shudder at the thought of admitting fundamentalist Christians into their select "Diversity University."

Is it possible that besides these credentials, the candidates are just duds?

I know many people with wonderful academic credentials that are throughly unimpressive in real life. The fact that a person is rejected doesn't mean they have been unfairly rejected.

I recall an incident a couple of weeks ago. One of my TA's said, and I quote, "We should not be graduating any Creationist Geologists." Said TA then proceeded to say that anyone who got through the curriculum with Creationist beliefs should not be allowed to graduate with a degree because they obviously hadn't learned anything.

I'm not a New Earth Creationist, in fact I'm something of an agnostic, but I immediately thought "Diversity of Opinion, hahaha". Fun times.

This is a good lawsuit that needs to filed, and won for all the Christian students across America. Unfortunately, this will go through the 9th Circus of Appeals, and it is recently apparent how vehemently anti-Christian these court jesters are. So we will need to wait for the SCOTUS to bring the correct verdit in this case.

It is a remarkable symbol of how low our culture has sunk to recall that--in Colonial times--the typical school in America was nearly identical to these "right-wing Christian" schools in terms of content taught to students.

They are probably afraid that these students will not sign up for the class on pornography, or argue with the anti-American professors who push the gay agenda. Remember its diversity of skin color not ideas.

Calvary Chapel Christian School in Murrieta, where Mr. Young is a senior.

Thought you'd be interested in this.

But courses at colleges in porn are okay. I just don't get it.

This article makes no mention of what the university thought was wrong with the classes.

The lawsuit isn't really about the students, it's about the textbooks and course material. It'll be interesting to see how this turns out. It could open the door for a lot of interesting alternative textbooks and schools...

An alternative strategy would be for Christians to never darken the door of these institutions and lavish money on Evangelical Christian colleges and the trade schools which specialize in business, and military. Ignore any school that is anti Christian. Pretend like you have never heard of them.Colleges which hire anti Christian bigots should be blackballed.

If the student isn't asking for COLLEGE credit for these courses, why should the college have anything to say about the courses? He is going to have to take whatever courses they require at the college anyway, so they'll still have their chance at indoctrination.

I have a hard time believing that the courses he took at his Christian high school are any less 'academic' than your typical History or English course at some high school in East LA or South Central LA. I'm sure they allow students from those schools into the CA state university system all the time without requiring them to jump through hoops.

THE UC system is going to get nailed on this. They accepted other religious schools and I am sure they have accepted, goy literature courses. I think it can be established that there is a distinct pattern of discrimination. I would be filing federal law suits like crazy. If the UC's as a institution discriminated they are toast, not just financially but then Christians can and should by precident of afirmitive action should demand that a quota of Christian students AND FACULTY should be present on campus. HA wouldnt that be funny.

>>Mr. Young has mapped a future that includes studying engineering at the University of California and a career in the aerospace industry<<

I hope Mr. Young has relocatable Asian/Near Eastern features and speaking skills because the ROI in any engineering discipline will be disappointing at best for the foreseeable future.
