1. People whose parents are afraid they will have a though of their
own which might conflict with their beliefs. Oh, yea and ten year olds (Bed checks? WTF)

2. No surprise that Jesus wouldn't fit in
From the men's dress code - Class Dress

Attire: Neat slacks; dress shirt with tie or collared shirt, golf/polo shirt, turtleneck, or sweater; all shirts must be tucked in; dress, casual or tennis shoes; socks; no hats in class or Convocation. Sweatshirts of all types, shirts with large logos, and sandals are prohibited


They consider this to be "conducive to a Christ-like environment", how sad. I believe hypocrites pay the tuition.

3. I went to a Catholic women's college and the rules were
just as strict and ridiculous. We had so many rules that often they contradicted each other. We kind of had a strategy which was do what you like but don't get caught.

4. And those pre-tribulation secret rapture Left Behinders
Edited on Thu May-19-05 07:42 PM by EVDebs
will be pleased to find that their eschatology is not Biblically sound. See End Time Delusions which exposes the failings of the 'futurist' eschatology that is the basis for the Left Behind novels and much of the (oddly) Protestant end times beliefs, which were originated in a Jesuit priest's Counter-Reformation theories about Daniel 9 and Revelation, in order to put the Papacy out of the spotlight.

Muslims can breath easier too, since a Third Temple--as futurism requires-- isn't necessary. The Al Aqsa mosque, where a Third Temple would be required to replace, would not 'need' to be destroyed if the historicist view of the end times held sway.
