They’re are the educational version of Chick-Fil-A.

That's a bit harsh … toward Chick-Fil-A. Chick-Fil-A's main purpose is to sell chicken, and they do a fine job of it.

Baylor is supposed to sell higher education from a Christian perspective. It's like ordering a chicken sandwich and getting a (not very good) burger instead.

I’m just saying that Chick-Fil-A has sold a lot of sandwiches on the good will of Christians who thought of them as a “Christian company”. When the rubber met the road, however, they chose to stop donations to several orthodox christian charities in order to “expand markets”.

Baylor (like Chick-Fil-A) is a business. They can both do whatever they want in pursuit of dollars. But they both built thier customer base on the image of Christian culture. Neither should be allowed to do so any more.

You may get a great education at Baylor (just like you may get a good chicken sandwich at Chick-Fil-A. But in reality, Baylor is just another university (in a sea of universities) and Chick-Fil-A is just another fast food join in sea of fastfood joints. There’s nothing significantly special or unique about either.
