Someone should inform these elitist idiots that their “non-discrimination” polices are discriminating against Christians because of their religious beliefs:

CBN NEWS – The student judiciary of Tufts University has banned a Christian group from campus.

Tufts Christian Fellowship was told it violated the university’s non-discrimination policy by requiring its leaders to follow “basic biblical truths of Christianity.”

TCF is a chapter of Intervarsity Christian Fellowship. The group is appealing the decision.

The Tufts Daily newspaper reports the ban blocks TCF from using the Tufts name in its title, scheduling events on campus, or receiving student funding.

Back in 2000, the student judiciary tried to do the same thing to TCF after a student complained she was blocked from leadership because of her sexual orientation.

Some Christians say it’s just one more example of how Christian beliefs are being subjugated to homosexual demands in the rising climate of political correctness.

Amazing the amount of religious persecution that still goes on in our society. I wonder if a straight person can be "elected" to a leadership position in an LGBT club on campus? I doubt the gays would do that but you know the university wouldn't ban them for that because it would be.....discrimination, dun dun DUN!!!! Hypocrites.

Would like to tell you that, Yes, can and has happened. Straight people are often members of LGBT clubs and part of leadership. Just hangin with buds. Ok with that?

I'm fine with that. Poor example I suppose. The LGBT club can have a straight person who agrees with their being gay in a position of leadership. So everyone is happy. However when it comes to faith based groups if you don't agree or believe why should you be part of their leadership at all? Why would you want to? I'm sure the LGBT clubs don't want a straight person who doesn't agree with homosexuality to be in a leadership position in their club let alone be in their club. So why is it ok for that to happen but when a Christian group says you have to be a Christian to be in a leadership position in our club is that wrong or discriminatory?? It doesnt' make any sense. It doesn't pass the common sense test.

Liberal insanity and stupidity. Banning them for requiring that it's leaders believe in Christian truths is like banning a virginity club for not allowing in prostitutes. Liberals are the dumbest people on earth.

Does this mean the debate club, chess club, and poker club can't require its members to follow basic, long-established rules? If so, why isn't that considered discrimination? And if not, wouldn't that result in chaos? Biblical Christianity is the thing being discriminated against here. Those who don't want to play by long-established Biblical rules can start their own club.

The Lord said this would happen... it doesn't take the anger from my heart... but it proves once again what a good and loving God we have. His Word and truth (and love and grace) are our rock and salvation. Keep fighting the good fight, until the Lord takes us home.

You can't be a Christian--or a member of a Christian group--if you don't believe in Christianity. This is like saying that Republicans should be the leaders of a the College Democrats and capitalists should be the leaders of the Young Socialists Group.

Does Tufts have a college newspaper? They should employ plaigarists and liars and label their articles as "fact." Actually, that's what a lot of real newspapers do, so maybe that's a bad example.

If you can't "discriminate" against gays or against people who don't believe a belief, wouldn't that mean Muslim groups should be banned? Or would that be discriminatory?

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Matthew 5:10-12 KJV

Would the elite powers that be, be more tolerant of Christians if they beheaded or stoned to death the infidels that didn't believe as they do?

I think that game plan is working for a so called religion, I just can't remember who they are.

Wait until the pantywaists at Tufts try and pull this off with the Muslim Student Association.

But then we'd be waiting forever because there is not a fuddrucker with the guts to apply to that.

Maybe Pamela Geller's attorneys (American Freedom Law Center) will want to take that on. They have been very sucessful fighting against Islamophobia and for Christian/Judeo values. Gutsy guys, both of them.

Why would they fight against a healthy fear of Islam, a political system where they want to establish Sharia law and take over the whole country?

Good catch. Should have said Islamization or islamification ...

They would build them special rooms and give them special privileges. The left is like a typical bully... they see kindness as weakness.

They would force each "employer" within the school to build a separate room and pay the moooslim slime to use it.

More lawfare - and from the student 'judiciary'. Would be laughable if it were not so often succeeding. What the hell are they teaching at these so-called centres of learning?

Another example of leftist bullying.

Bask in the light of the left's "tolerance" for people with different values, beliefs, and lifestyles. Instead of "tolerance", it can better be defined as censorship, oppression, and fascism.

Give one man rights over another man's, and you give him power over that man.

The left has a simple formula and they just keep repeating it.

Too bad lefties don't care about discriminating Bible believing Christians. Everyone is off limits to discrimination except those who actually cling to their Bibles. I can imagine what would happen if Tufts decided to ban muslim groups who require their leaders adhere to the koran and hadiths. Oh right. They're pieceful.

Tufts is one of many and we can expect more.

This is a Judeo-Christian world. And a lot of democrats are Christian/Catholics. Like Joe Biden, the "gaffe king." Freedom of religion is why our forefathers brought forth this country, these elitist idiots are violating the constitution.

It is discrimination to ban anyone from any group if the left protects the classification of that individual (gay, muslim, etc). Anyone else can be discriminated against by the left and it's all good.

Liberals preach tolerance but they are very, very intolerant.
