A professor at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) is under fire for putting up a display on “Christian privilege” in one of the school’s hallways for most of the 2022-2023 school year.

Charmayne “Charli” Champion-Shaw, a lecturer for the public university’s Native American & Indigenous Studies department, put up the anti-Christian display last October where it remained in the hallway for the entire school year, according to reports.

The bulletin board display, titled “Understanding Christian Privilege,” provided students, faculty and guests with a visual lesson in the inherent societal advantages that all Christians allegedly have.

Photos of the display posted by Campus Reform, showed it consisted of six full pages of detailed information on the topic on Christian privilege, including an explanation that it is “the idea that Christians receive inherent advantages in society (in school, in the workplace, and in public places) due to the perception that Christianity is status quo, while other religions are not.”

The papers declared that other religions are “marginalized” because of Christianity’s outsized presence in Western civilization. They added, “As a result, other religions or attitudes about religion are marginalized, overlooked or ignored altogether, or even perceived as troubling, problematic, or suspicious.”

The material proclaimed that the heart of Christian privilege is “benefits that apply to one group of people (Christians) that other groups don’t receive.” …

“Have searched the Internet, but found nothing!”

The ‘net has become a weak imitation of its former self.

Where is Marshal McLuhan?

'Christian privilege is directly connected to White supremacy'

Tell that to first century Christians, who were thrown to the lions in the coliseum.

And while we're at it, I demand reparations for injustices committed against my Christian forebearers hundreds of years ago!

You can magnify it a little, but it’s still hard to read:

She sounds like another leftist fraud and con-artist. Purdue has been going down the toilet for decades, as has Notre Dame. Hiring lefties is now a part of their Destroy America programs and agendas.

So, have these shit for brains figured out the source of nearly 100% of the world’s advancement is rooted in Christianity yet? That’s all technology, rights, liberty and freedom too.

The stupid asses need to visit Africa, country by country for an education.

Christianity was status quo. This nation was founded primarily by Christians for Christians. America would not exist if it were not for Christians.

You might also tell it to the tens of millions of Christians murdered by Communist regimes in the 20th century.

Bolsheviks made a special point of targeting Christian priests and nuns.

Christian clergy also didn't fare too well in the French Revolution.

The entire western hemisphere is made up of countries founded by Christians.

The G7 nation’s common thread is Christianity,(with the exception of the red Herring Japan). The G7 and their christendom affiliates are still responsible for 100 % of the inventions, and over 70% of global commerce.

This is what the Marxists are wanting to bring down. The backwards nation of global Islam wants to see global domination which requires the death of the Christian and his west.

Carlos the Jackal penned it the best over 20 years ago when he said that Islam itself could not bring down the west, nor could Marxism, but an alliance could.

Shortly thereafter we had hussein sitting in the White House who was un-cooincidentally both, Marxist and Muslim.

She’s right. You cannot get into heaven unless you are a Christian.

Really intelligent looking fat bitch. Your tax dollars go to fill her pie hole and spew nonsense at other really low-IQ dolts that never build a damn thing. These so-called students end up in taxpayer funded jobs if they can find one.

There is no such thing as a “Native American”! Every human here has their roots in another continent.

I have no problem with this display being shown. As long as I can also have a display highlighting the many achievements made under Christianity. But that’s the rub isn’t it? No such display would be permitted

That is IUPUI in Indianapolis, not Purdue University in West Lafayette.

Well, truth be told, Christians ARE privileged.
And there’s nothing racist about that. All are invited.

Romans 10:9
...if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
