Wonkette: Liberty University allows concealed weapons....still no kissing!

You thought you had enough crazy for today? Read on: Liberty University Allows Guns For Jesus in Classrooms, Kissing Still of the Devil.

Happy Friday! Today in Who Would Jesus Shoot? news, it’s Liberty University! Bringing guns to school isn’t just for terrible tragedies anymore! Stand your grades, followers of Falwell, because this “University” says carrying concealed weapons to your Creationism 101 class is perfectly A-OKAY]!

...........//snip

Liberty students who have an easy-to-obtain Virginia concealed carry permit and permission from campus police will now be able to carry a loaded gun into classrooms, according to a March 22 revision to school policy. University staff and visitors may also bring firearms into university buildings on campus, WSET reported. Students remain banned from bringing guns into residence halls, even with a permit.

Well, maybe some semblance of sanity remains......or does it?

However, this is the University that gave Glenn Beck an honorary Doctorate of Humanities when he gave the commencement address in 2010 — complete with crying and whiteboards and diagrams explaining the whole secular conspiracy of the world outside of Liberty AND they offer students a class called “Apologetics 104? where they “talk about evolution at this university probably as much as evolutionists do at [a state school], but we do it with the freedom of saying, ‘It’s wrong, and here is why it’s wrong,’” so it is just impossible to know where to start on “logic” with these people.

Also, that class sounds terrible.

Though Liberty students may now carry loaded weapons to class, Liberty rules continue to prohibit R-rated movies, un-Godly music, dancing, kissing or staying in a motel room with a member of the opposite sex, as outlined in the student handbook.

I tell ya, kids, you just can't make this shit up! You just can't make this shit up!!!!!!

You can pack your prosthetic penis everywhere on campus, but you're gonna get expelled if you get caught kissing, dancing, watching R-rated movies, or practicing witchcraft!

6. So it's perfectly OK to carry a gun openly but not OK to visit an opposite sex dorm after hours.
