Christian School Drops Nickname – Cites “Offensive” to Muslims

In a globalist, politically correct system of government, where any minority is given preferential status over the majority, especially a Christian majority, some things just have to change. That is the case with having a school mascot and nickname of “Crusaders.”

How could a Christian school expect to get away with a mascot that is not Sharia compliant in the first place?

The school, Maranatha Baptist University in Wisconsin has announced they will drop their old name, but haven’t yet determined.

The Crusades were so long ago, and with the increasing pressure to accommodate Islam in all aspects of American society, they might as well go ahead and get it over with. Besides, what relevance could a fight by Christians against a Muslim jihad sweeping across their continent possibly have in today’s world?

Better, I suppose, than having to train young heads full of mush to take up the sword and shield and go to war as true Crusaders against the muslim hoard.

How about the “Capitulators?” is the penultimate line in the article. Well said, and that being said, are they really “Christians?”

The Crusades were a minor response to Islamic aggression.

Just tell them that Crusade refers to an inner spiritual battle, much like Jihad refers to an inner struggle in Islam.

Actually, it would be a brilliant move, if it were done to remove an obstacle so that the Gospel of Jesus Christ could be presented. That is kingdom living; something we should have been doing.

But that is not what it is about.Its pandering to a bunch of 7th century throwbacks and nothing more.You ever heard the term “Onward Christian soldier”? I know what it means.

Great follow up post!

I instantly remembered the D-Day message, but I completely forget that was the title of his book.

Shama, shame, shame on Ike.

I still don’t regret having had him as my CIC.

The atheists and Muslims have joined hands to remove the Words of the Centuries old telling of God and the redemption of sins(all) through Jesus Christ from the history of the USA. The atheists I believe are of little danger to the intentions of the Founders. The Muslims, however, are of different persuasion and intent. I don’t believe the Muslims were much to worry about when they fought on the side of Nazi Germany in WWII. However once the USA became dependent on oil the USA was hooked to the oil of the middle east and the finances of the international bankers.

Because Islamists everywhere go out of their way to accommodate Christians.
