  • This is Not a Day Care. It�s a University!

    This is in the context of a Christian College, but the message is relevant for our age.

    ! In his mind, the speaker was wrong for making him, and his peers, feel uncomfortable.

    This is not a day care. This is a university!

      I mean really what are we raising, cup cakes that pee their pants merely at the sight of a Confederate flag?

          Thankfully we as a culture did not have this mindset when we fought WW2.

            Were I the construction supervisor, I would have responded with a drawing of a whining baby and a nice "grow up" message.

              Which doubtless would have gotten you fired for "insensitivity."

                Why fire someone when you can just send them to re-education camp sensitivity training?

                  The "Cry Baby Generation" at play in a university near you. Don't hurt their little feelings.

                      I am baffled. 1 Corinthians 13 is one of the most beautiful and awe inspiring passages in the Bible. How could anyone possibly be offended by it?

                      Doesn't this student realize (since the student was in a Christian school I am going to guess they are Christian too)that no one can achieve God's standard under their own power. Thankfully there is the Lord Jesus Christ.

                      But this also makes me wonder--has any of these people ever worked with the public before? If merely hearing a sermon on love causes them anguish wait until, for example, they get cursed and screamed at for an hour because the price of a product or service has gone up. These students seem sheltered. They had better hope whatever job they might get isolates them from other people because otherwise they are in for a rude awakening.

                          No it isn't. It hits the nail squarely on the head, and is one that needed driving home for quite some time.

                            But the link did say this: It appears that this young scholar felt offended because a homily on love made him feel bad for not showing love! In his mind, the speaker was wrong for making him, and his peers, feel uncomfortable.
