As part of his punishment, he was ordered to take down his blog and write a ten-page expository essay on the pros and cons of homosexuality. I would be happy to help with his "essay":
Pros: If you enjoy deviant, sinful behavior, then this is a lifestyle sure to lead to a miserable life.
Cons: Ten pages isn't nearly enough!

There are no pros to contra-health conduct. This student's free speech was un-Constitutionally subverted to politically coercive ideological indoctrination. He needs to fight this.

'Why do we have to tolerate the sub-human actions of people like this on campus?'"That's interesting. Earlier articles on this situation claimed that he had said homosexuals were sub-human. If this quote is accurate, he has clear identified the behavior, rather than the person, as sub-human.
From the point of view of gay activists, it's still "homophobic," but from the standpoint of Christianity, there is a difference.

a judicial affairs panel at Duquesne found Miner guilty of "sexual orientation" harassment. The Duquesne judicial affairs panel is guilty of intolerance, ping.

I agree. I've known homosexuals, and many of them are very nice and I have no problem being friendly with them. However, that does not mean that I condone their behavior.

I have been to the Duquesne Campus twice today. Mr. Miner is wrong and Duquesne is wrong. Mr. Miner has the right to say whatever he wants off campus, but what he said was abhorrent. He said that homosexuals were "subhuman". He later qualified his words to say that he was taken out of context and that he meant the acts, not the people were subhuman.
For those of you with historical knowledge, you will recognize the word subhuman as the English translation of untermensch, Hitler's word for homosexuals (and others). Hitler used the classification as "subhuman" to exterminate homosexuals.
Mr. Miner's biggest offense is that he claims his religion teaches that homosexuality is somehow subhuman. It may be a sin, but sin is all too human. His religion teaches that he should love not only his neighbor, but even his enemies. He would have been much better off joining the gay straight alliance and helping the gay members to understand that Jesus loves them and God forgives those who repent.
A ten page essay is a small price to pay.

The actual name of the school is Duquesne University of the Holy Spirit

On the other hand, if post #14 is correct, then the student did say homosexuals are subhuman, and that's not consistent with Christianity.

The correct pronounciation is "doo-KANE". When we 'burghers fool around it's "doo-kwezny". It's a "'burgh thing.

Hitler used the classification as "subhuman" to exterminate homosexuals.I use the word "sub-human" to describe rapists and pedophiles.
Oh no, I must be a nazi.
He should write a 10 page paper on how freedom of speech is being outlawed today.
