Liberal ULTRA ULTRA Hypocrisy At It's Finest

                                            University Bans Religious Necklaces

 

 

     There is no better example of political correctness and religious intolerance run amok than the liberal bastion that is our colleges and universities. Long a breeding ground for what was supposed to be “tolerance” and the acceptance of opposing viewpoints, a large number of our academic institutions have become the epitome of the intolerance they supposedly abhor. A perfect example of this intolerance is the recent controversy at Sonoma State University where a female student was asked to remove her cross necklace because a school supervisor thought other students would find it offensive. The resulting controversy, according to news reports, was characterized by “political correctness that got out of hand”.
  The student, Audrey Jarvis, was forced by the University to seek a “religious accommodation” to be able to wear the cross. Rightfully she has asked for an apology from the University.
  According to Ms. Jarvis’s attorney, Hiram Sasser, it’s “amazing in this day of diversity and tolerance on university campuses that a university official would engage in this type of religious discrimination.”
  Mr. Sasser likely means well, but in this case is sorely mistaken.  University campuses have become a bastion of intolerance, specifically in regards to anyone who holds Christian and/or conservative beliefs.  For decades the liberal establishment has been doing their best to indoctrinate university students into their leftist worldview. As a result the push for “equality” and “tolerance” has created an atmosphere where any opposition to the preferred liberal, pro-abortion, anti-religious, pro-gay rights mindset is not tolerated by the establishment whatsoever. The sad fact is the concept of our universities as a model for open debate and multiple viewpoints is an antiquated notion.
  In the Sonoma State example Ms. Jarvis was told that she could not wear her cross necklace because it might “offend others and it might make incoming students feel unwelcome.” This pathetic mindset, not unusual among the liberal elite, is a sad reminder of the point we’ve reached as a country when it comes to political correctness. The idea that an incoming freshman would somehow be offended by a Christian symbol that’s been around for two-thousand years and something they’ve seen numerous times before is indicative of how weak our culture has become in the endless quest never to offend anyone. Of course a gay pride symbol or a pro-abortion sign is as offensive (or more offensive) than a Christian cross. Good luck getting Sonoma State to tell a student to remove a gay pride symbol from anything. In the process of trying not to “offend” other students the university effectively discriminated against a student who has every right to display the symbols of her personal belief system. While Sonoma State moves to dismiss the case as an isolated incident it’s a perfect microcosm into the mindset of a good number of our liberal college professors and academic staff.
