On compassion and inclusiveness
This is just stupid: A 14-year-old student was expelled from a Christian school because her parents are lesbians, the school's superintendent said in a letter. Shay Clark was expelled from Ontario Christian School on Thursday. "Your family does not meet the policies of admission," Superintendent Leonard Stob wrote to Tina Clark, the girl's biological mother. Stob wrote that school policy requires that at least one parent may not engage in practices "immoral or inconsistent with a positive Christian life style, such as cohabitating without marriage or in a homosexual relationship," The Los Angeles Times reported in Friday's edition. What the girl had to do with her "parents" sinful lifestyle is beyond me. What was she supposed to do, force them to seperate? Preach every day to them? She is 14. Not to mention, Mr. Christian teacher, do you realize what opprutunity you lost yourself here? Here is someone who, according to you, lives in a sinful household. Do you reach out and try to "save her"? Nope, You kicked her out and sent her back in it. I am sure that's what Jesus would've done, no? All I see is stupidity around me!

This is a good example of why faith-based schools are wrong and should not be allowed anywhere. Instead of educating the children to think for themselves, they try to teach their own prejudices.
Welcome to the "right" please take you seat and buckle your belt.
maybe they sent the girl to the school I dunno thinking that the christian religion actually practices what it preaches in terms of acceptance and tolerance for their fellow humans. I don't ever recall reading in the bible that Jesus turned his back on people just because they were different. I'm going to check up on that i'm sure one of my room mates must have a bible around here somewhere.
Most Christian schools, even the ones that call themselves "evangelical," are not evangelical at all, unfortunately.
