They are doing nothing here except reiterating the positions of the American Counseling Association, the American Social Worker Association, The American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association and numerous Leftist Churches.

What galls these creeps the most are the results: Genuinely embracing Christianity has righted far more screwed up lives than all the modern secular humanist counseling out there.You know, I hadn't ever thought of that, but you're probably right.

There are more “Queer Studies” programs coming out and a bunch of state universities here in the Midwest.
It was only a few years ago that calling someone a “queer” was considered derogatory. Bizarre.

“The Left is not out to maintain a compatible set of values with you - it wants to crush you. The Left is not hypocritical, the Left is antithetical.”
I meant they say one thing and do the opposite. Isn’t that hypocrisy?

Contact LifeSiteNews.com -- they would know how to contact her...
Here is their contact webpage:
Contact Webpage for LifeSiteNews.com
They are a small organization, so I believe they discourage direct emails...
They do have a contact form to fill out...

This is a ‘State’ university? They ought to lose ALL state financial support over this. The perps in the school Administration should be fired and held responsible for monitary damages.

They can, because her religion is viewed as non PC.
I fear that there will be demands made by the fedgov very soon that all Christianity accommodate the sodomites.

well, I can agree with you about Hitler’s character. But liberals ARE hypocrites, as can easily be demonstrated.

Religious bigots, like their libtard bigot cousins, are pretty much of the same stripe: they disparage results, but think they should be rewarded for good intentions.
When you understand one, you understand the other because there is so much overlap.

But Peter and John replied, “Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God's sight to obey you rather than God. 20For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
23On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them. 24When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. 25You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:
“ ‘Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
26The kings of the earth take their stand
and the rulers gather together
against the Lord
and against his Anointed One.[c]’[d] 27Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people[e] of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. 28They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen. 29Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. 30Stretch out your hand to heal and perform miraculous signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”
31After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and SPOKE THE WORD OF GOD BOlDLY./p>

There is a place for witnessing and there is a place for counseling.
You raise interesting issues. Is witnessing (an activity Christians are enjoined by their religion to do, albeit not in all circumstances) something similar to proselytizing (something Moslems vehemently oppose, other than their own)? Does not extolling the virtues of a positive acceptance, if not open glorification, of homosexual lifestyles constitute proselytizing? If not, why not?
Im not familiar with the protocols of professional counseling, but I cant imagine counseling taking place in a values vacuum. So the question arises, what values? What values are acceptable for counseling? Surely not human sacrifice, or the blood sacrifice of goats or chickens in lieu of humans. Nor, we must think, the advocating of female bondage for the purposes of prostitution. But at Augusta State, by all accounts Christian values must be numbered right along with blood sacrifice and female bondage as unacceptable for Counseling values.
. . . it really would be inappropriate for a counselor to couch her practice, advice or therapy with her qualifiers.
What does that mean? If the accusation is that Miss Keeton is proselytizing (that is, witnessing or preaching), whence comes the charge? Weve no indication Miss Keeton has given a signal that her intention is to convert homosexuals or other unbelievers. If a patient were to confess pedophilia (someone in serious need of counseling), would it be inappropriate for a counselor to couch his practice advice or therapy with certain qualifiers? Would not the counselor be roundly condemned for a failure to do exactly that? Yet Miss Keetons values apparently are not acceptable, however mildly expressed.
