*Study I am referring to measured things like divorce rates, pre-marital sex, porn, cheating, crimes, etc. among self-identified Christians vs. Non-Christian.

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.
