Idiocy.
And by second tier 'value' schools such as the University of Michigan.
Go State!
I never in all my life thought I would live long enough to see Holy Ireland so thoroughly transformed after 15 centuries....And I am glad my parents aren’t here to see it
Well then exactly what “trinity” are they talking about...some kind of kinky threesome?
Just wait until they decide to cover all the crucifixes.
This story must be an early April Fool’s Day spoof.
So the need to rename it “The College”
I don’t see the problem. They are just replacing a closed Bible with an open Bible.
I have a problem with their replacing a 5 color scheme with a 2 color scheme. It will be like some American school, whatever the colors.
Pray tell, what “trinity” is the university named after? Are they going to stick a rainbow and unicorn on the symbol instead?
Sometimes the news of the day is just disheartening. I shouldn’t read it...
EXACTLY!
Are they aiming for the Queer checkbooks or the Muslim checkbooks?
Removing the bible from Trinity College is the same as taking the alcohol out of Irish whiskey.
Bizarre. But then again, the Anglican Church was founded by a fat, diseased old king who just got annoyed because the Church wouldn’t let him marry yet another wife in his attempt to produce a male heir...which he never did produce in any case.
So why should anybody be surprised that it’s adapting to the colors of RyanAir and the demands of a secular government?
This is an Anglican university, founded by Elizabeth I of England.
Decades ago, our contributions to fund raising efforts, came to a bitter sweet end. Jones was a bad choice. This is a crappy choice. Trinity's decline will continue on a fast track.
It’s like the three branches of government: Money, Television, and Bullsh*t.
That's part of the reason for the 'rebranding' as Trinity College - The University of Dublin. You can expect that sometime down the road - not too far down the road - the Trinity College part will be dropped and it will become just The University of Dublin.
Insofar as I may be heard by anything, which may or may not care what I say, I ask, if it matters, that you be forgiven for anything you may have done or failed to do which requires forgiveness. Conversely, if not forgiveness but something else may be required to insure any possible benefit for which you may be eligible after the destruction of your body, I ask that this, whatever it may be, be granted or withheld, as the case may be, in such a manner as to insure your receiving said benefit. I ask this in my capacity as your elected intermediary between yourself and that which may not be yourself, but which may have an interest in the matter of your receiving as much as it is possible for you to receive of this thing, and which may in some way be influenced by this ceremony. Amen.

Trinity College Dublin is to remove the bible from its crest ... The Bible image, closed with clasps, dates back to the colleges founding in 1592 as the College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Queen Elizabeth.
They will also change the color scheme on the ancient crest to avoid a clash with Ryanairs corporate image.
Cultural Marxism and its handmaiden, globalism, is a jealous faith and will countenance no other deities.
Ryan air is the same line that flew OBLs family out of the US after 9/11 for Richard Clarke.
