Georgia University Forces Employees to Sign Statement Rejecting Homosexuality or Be Fired

Shorter University in Rome, GA, is currently coming under fire for requiring its employees to sign a pledge rejecting pre-marital sex, adultery, and homosexuality. Don Dowless, the school's president, was quoted as saying that those who indicated a sexual preference "not agreeable with the Bible" would be terminated. The pledge also prohibits the use, sale, possession, and production of illegal drugs as well as the use or acceptance of alcohol. However, the media and liberals apparently only want to pull one part of the statement out as being discriminatory and that is its condemnation of homosexuality.

The world is doing its best to get a stamp of approval put upon this ungodly lifestyle. We are seeing an attack upon the Biblical model of the family like never before not only in the United States but all across the world. It has come to the point that it is not just the sodomites and other miscreants pushing to make this "lifestyle" acceptable. We also see so-called "Christians" and liberal "Churches" who are beginning to allow this wickedness into their midsts. Even some of the students at this Christian university were saying that it was a form of discrimination and that it was not any of their business how the employees chose to live their lives.

I find it refreshing to see a Christian organization that is standing upon the principles of the Word of God unashamedly. Today, many Christians refuse to take God's Word seriously. They pick and choose what part of God's Word they want to follow and which parts they want to ignore. This university has taken a stance which is based upon the very clear teachings of the Word of God and they are standing by that decision. I pray that they continue to stand on God's Word and that they would turn out some graduates who are serious about serving God with their lives.

Christ said that if we would be ashamed of Him and His words then He will be ashamed of us. We need some Christians to stand up and declare the truths found in the Word of God. We need some Christians who will not be ashamed to serve God with their lives and to live totally sold-out for Him. We have nothing to be ashamed of. The world, the lost, are going to be the ones who stand one day in shame because of their sin and wickedness.

Let us learn something from this university and not be ashamed of the Word of God.

Mark 8:38
'Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.'

Good for them

Over here they would be forced to close down. About five miles or so from here was a well known Christian holiday and conference centre. It had to close down when the law changed to make it illegal to discriminate. We had a similar problem when we had to let out manse when we were without a pastor, when we said we would only accept married couples.

At one time most schools in America had moral codes, based upon Christianity, which employees had to uphold and live by. That obviously isn't the case anymore.
