The letter, from Tennessee Christian Preparatory School, states that because of Morgan Armstrong’s conduct, she will not be allowed on campus or any school events, including her upcoming graduation.

      Its functionally legal to discriminate against gay people in America now. I see this as testing the waters more than anything.

      Notice they didn’t put their name on it anywhere. Fucking cowards.

      EDIT: yikes, I just read the third punishment… So vindictive, and for what? Conservatives are such thin skinned crybabies.

      Also, I don’t know how closely college admissions look at things like this, but if I had any input in the decision to accept this student to my college, I would 100% see this as a positive.

    hey guys its me, jesus, the messiah reborn as a joe shmoe that nobody listens to.

    the gays are cool, modern christians do not follow my teachings. they are worshippers of an anti christ. and use my name in vain to carry out his will.

    alright, back to playing helldivers 2, at least i might help save “super earth” while i wait for the apocolypse to destroy this one. good luck and be kind while you can!

          No I think the current scientific theory is that lots of crazy guys did exist in that area and era named Jesus, but he was brown and not magical at all and all the stories and stuff are totally made up and it’s basically the same bullshit that the mormons follow, because it’s the same template in every single cult.

      I would expect them to act like Christians, or at the very least, not do things that will get them sued.

      There’s nowhere in a school charter that says, oh, I’m sorry you like boys. I know you’ve completed all of your compulsory education, but because of your activities outside of the school that have nothing to do with the school itself, you have to start over from kindergarten.

        Actually, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if they had something like that in there lol… Christian schools are insane (can’t wait for my taxes to start subsidizing them!)

        Either way, this person graduated whether they get the piece of paper that says it or not. They could spin this into a positive if they do it right… Many schools would not see this as a bad thing, and it could also make for a killer college essay

          I went to a Christian school and it was staffed by parents who wanted to save money on the costs of sending their kids to Christian school.

          The sheer volume of could not give a fuck was immeasurable as long as it didn’t affect them personally.

              Why do cults hate queers? I would think you could just write us in as like… Subservient to the family as extra resources or something.

              It’s probably the afterlife thing. You need people to make babies so that people are afraid and cope properly by relying on your cult. Can’t reinforce your cult with people who aren’t going to recruit the strongest members: brainwashed from birth.

              That, and the existence of gays asks a lot of questions about existence that VERY MUCH destroy the logic of what the cults need to survive.
