Intresting is it not that the sticking point seems to be that members declare their faith in Jesus something all committed Christians have. Yet another example of the attmepts to further erode chirsitanity in our country in the name of so called inclusivity.

Christians have the right as do other faiths to have a safe enviroment to practice their faith in a peacefull manner.

I wonder if we would be having a situation like this if a Muslim society was invloved, I doubt it very much as we would be told that it was in the intrests of a multi cultural society to have a muslim fellowship on campus.

Fair enough, why should non-Christians be admitted to a Christian club?

Which leads me to thinking, why on earth would a muslim want to chair a Christian club?

It's the same kind of mentality as the smoking ban, isn't it?

Non-smokers demand admittance to a smoking club... ...before you know it they ban smoking in that club.

I reckon all those Christians should go and crash the college gay club. It'll feel uneasy about them being there (gay clubs don't like anti-gay straights in them) and will attempt to kick them out. At which point the Christians will have a supremely good defence against having to let everyone into their club.

I think they should find the muslim club, try to join and apply for leadership, then compain.

I tell every homosexual I meet now that I'm a Christian just to wind them up, they never expect it because nine times out of ten women love them, I'm the exception

I even sent my Canadian homosexual neighbour a card with Jesus on it last Christmas, he didn't return the gesture, how rude
