I wasn't talking about mainstream Christianity. I am a mainstream Christian. My family attends church multiple times a week. My husband is an elder in the church, so I feel qualified to comment on Christianity.

My anecdote was based on direct experience with that subset, which is a minority of Christians, who wish to exclude everyone who isn't exactly like them and secular things. These are the type of people who were excluding DeltaBetaBaby.

More accurately: Exclude nonChristians within the context of teaching at the institution.

Which includes DeltaBetaBaby, yes? The school's position to only hire Christians doesn't only exclude DeltaBetaBaby, but her exclusion remains the result. I was responding to that part of the story.

Have a great weekend, DrPhil. I'm sure I'll see you around GC.

To teach and based on what DeltaBetaBaby has told us regarding her not being hired because she is Jewish (I assume she was told that).

We do not know whether all employees at that institution are evangelical Christians (or people who claim to be evangelical Christians). That provides a different context to the presumed exclusion based on religion.

Uhhh...okayyyy...these posts will probably be here whenever you get back.....

1Ls are so cute.

And excited. :)

So, which schools REALLY have the most fraternities and sororities?

Sorry to hijack the hijacking, but I attend Queens University of Charlotte and there is NO way that 53% of men are in fraternities. Our Pi Kappa Phi chapter currently has about 20 members and 6 associates, and the Phi Kappa Sigma charter has about 15 men in all. I have NO idea where they got these statistics because they are quite frankly, not accurate at all.

I agree with you. The 2009-2010 QU IDS reports that 18.5% of freshmen males and 10.7% of male undergraduates joined a fraternity. The female rates are 16.2% and 10.9% respectively.
