Editorial Staff May Face Disciplinary Action
The student newspaper at the largest Baptist university in the world has endorsed homosexual "marriage."
Back in November, Christian pollster George Barna reported that approximately 40 percent of young adults (between the ages of 18 and 38) believe it is "morally acceptable" to have a sexual relationship with someone of the same gender. If one believes those findings, it should come as no surprise that on Friday, the editorial board of the Baylor University Lariat compared opposition to same-sex marriage to discrimination based on skin color or religious beliefs.
The paper's editorial board approved the article by a 5-2 vote -- and editor Lacy Elwood says it was "no big deal." But Baylor president Robert Sloan, Jr., evidently thinks differently. Sloan says the editorial board of the Lariat may have violated university policy.
