My son got a letter in the mail from a private Christian university asking him to apply — remind me who recruits whose children again?

@fakedansavage Was he targeted or was it just sent to him because he’s about the right age?

@DeborahFisher16 Hm… if the gays sent recruitment letters to all 15 year olds, not targeting anyone in particular, how would that go over?

Seriously… imagine if gay groups or militantly secular organizations sent unsolicited snail mail to homeschooled Christian kids inviting them to come give sodomy and/or reality a try. How would that go over? Every June fundy Christians complain about how bible-beating, sign-waving Christian protesters who show up at gay pride parades wind up getting booed and flipped off. Look at the intolerant gay people booing that man holding up the “SODOMITES REPENT! GAYS BURN IN HELL! GOD CONDEMNS HOMO SIN!” sign at their parade! But imagine the flip side: gay protesters start showing up outside churches on Easter Sunday waving signs that say “SODOMY IS WAY MORE FUN THAN CHURCH! THERE IS NO HELL! THERE IS NO GOD! JOIN US!” How would they be received?
