Comment on The ANN Highlights LSU’s Dr. Lee Grismer – An Evolutionary Biologist by Ron Stone M.D..
Eddie: Why is the reputation of a news reporter being clandered here? Lee Grismer is allegedly SDA, works at a SDA institution, and often makes headlines with his scientific discoveries. The author may have been simply covering the news story without grilling Lee Grismer about his views of origins and SDA fundamental beliefs. When Baby Fae became headline news back in the 1980s I doubt any SDA news reporter ever asked him about his personal views on abortion, physician-assisted suicide, cause of homosexuality, origins, or any other controversial issues–and even if he held a view conflicting with that of most SDAs I doubt that would have precluded them from reporting the story. If ANN reported news only from perfect SDAs, there would be nothing to report about–except, perhaps, a certain pathologist who understands science better than any Nobel laureate.
How has this reporter been slandered? If ANN wants to be taken seriously, they had better get more intense scrutiny about what they are telling us.
If they say they never heard of the controversy at LSU, then they definitely need to regroup and maybe get some more professional staff. How can anyone take these guys seriously? I certainly don’t!

LSU Alum: No but any fundamental beliefs that say don’t eat meat and don’t drink alcohol are not fundamental beliefs based on Biblical teachings. They are made up my human’s and to think someone’s character is based on there legalism according to EGW’s rules is ridiculous. Being a vegetarian does not get you into heaven, drinking alcohol does not keep you out of heaven, at least I hope not because I would love to talk to Noah and the disciples ect
Yes, drinking a “small” alcoholic beverage may not keep you out of heaven, (although drunkedness could) but,according to the LSU bylaws, it can get you kicked out of LSU!

LSU Alum: Also I really hate the discussion about other people having to accept SDA beliefs, we need to focus on showing God’s character to others not trying to change their religion. If we show the true nature of God then it is hard for others to deny the truth.
God’s character is part of our beliefs but not the whole thing. So, we should toss out our “Fundamental Beliefs?”

Shane Hilde: God’s grace does not = leaving people in positions of leadership who are undermining truth.
Exactly Shane. Progressives focus on grace to the exclusion of anything else, including a “little” alcohol, an “occasional steak”– Smuts van Rooyan being the best (or worst) example of this I have ever seen.

This is the typical garbage that has been coming out of PUC for many years. People wonder why our colleges are losing students, despite the fact that we take more and more non-SDAs each year.
My Goal for La Sierra University
The reason the LaSierra situation has gone uncorrected so long is that most of our administrators have exactly the sort of political instincts that Dan Jackson has. They are politicians and consensus builders; they want to keep the peace and make the trains run on time. But the circumstances call for men of principle, hard men who are willing to stand for the right “though the heavens fall,†i.e., regardless who is offended and loudly complains.
Dave, I agree with you. Jackson’s trying to play on “both teams” is not going to go well for him.
Unfortunately, politics is the “SOP” of many of our SDA officials, Jackson being just one. “Political instincts” are the rule, instead of actually doing what is “right” according to what we know in God’s Word.
Bradley, Beach and Kaatz retain attorney
Shane Hilde: Think big fish: LSU or the Seventh-day Adventist Church.Graham might not have followed procedure with these men, but I don’t know what the procedure is. I’ve read what the process is in the faculty handbook, but I don’t know if that applies to administrative positions which are at will employees. If it does apply to them, then it appears the process was not followed.
Trustees book says, in 6,9,F, that the Trustes may “discontinue” virtually anyone working at the university.
Does that mean to “fire” or to “force their resignation? Seems like it does.
