Comment on LSU Faculty Senate supports biology department by Shayne Vincent.
Ted L. Stephens DDS: I also feel that the Board of Directors, The Union, and the GC are remiss for not taking a stand. By doing nothing they are complicit.
Unfortunately a lot of these issues are the fruit of turning to higher criticism for knowledge at the expense of faith, faith in things that cannot be explained in this current world, and thus we use reason as the foundation of truth rather than scripture.

LSU Faculty Senate supports biology department
Nowhere are the LSU faculty dealing with the real issue, that is, that the Biology Professors are teaching that evolution is real; they continue to make it look as though EducateTruth is simply making this up, and that the professors only teach the two (Creation vrs Evolution) side by side to show the differences, this is simply NOT TRUE, LSU is teaching evolution as REAL.
I feel that Shane did go too far with interpreting the words of this document to mean they admittedly support evolution, that being said, it is documented and unquestionable that LSU is using political correctness to evade the reality that evolution is being taught at LSU as real and legitimate and that a seven day creation week is somehow symbolic and not literal.
This unfathomable position is near insanity for a professed believer in Christ Jesus- any casual student of history can clearly see that the fruit of evolution is marxism, nihilism, communism, fascism, the final solution, rationalism and other such sadistic philosophies. What ever happened to common sense?

@Casey:
Why is Creation absurd? You presume too much. If we as Church members believe the bible, is it appropriate to call us ignorant? Or why would it be inappropriate to ask a Christian school to follow the Bible. If you want to believe in evolution, then go to a State university. This is a very simple issue and has nothing to do with ignorance and everything to do with integrity.

Why would following the Bible story of creation be unloving? This is a philosophical issue. If I were a democrat why would I join the GOP? If I didn’t believe the bible, why would I go to a christian school to learn about evolution? Get real people, LSU belongs to the church, not the other way around.

WASC considers outside efforts ‘threatening’ to LSU’s autonomy
The concept of academic freedom and autonomy is not in line with the purpose of the institution in the first place, they are not an autonomous institution, they are subordinates of the Churches mission to reach the lost by equipping members to be effective Christians and to also make a living while doing it; the original mission is obviously not the focus of our institutions and has not been for many decades, the real focus is what then?
