Yeah well guys, you didn't have to deal with these people coming to your campus on Friday nights and trying to convert you. I went to Clemson University and EVERY SINGLE Friday night, Bob Jones students would make the 45 minute drive over to Clemson to try and convert people. It was fun at first to screw with them but it got very old very quickly.

Glad to see condoms are allowed. Even religious freaks should be able to screw each other during finals week.

Nope. I'm a conservative Christian and I think that Bob Jones is pretty screwed up. They disallow inter-racial relationships, etc. Or at least, they did up til recently - it may not be official anymore. They've got issues.



Hey the new breed of republicans have to come from some where. Heck even Bush and others have spoke there.

Heh...my cousin goes there. He's pretty screwed up, though. He thought that Moody Bible Institute in Chicago was too liberal because they are allowed to wear blue jeans to class. :Q

if there was a way to do it at no cost, I'd like to spend a summer there taking gen-ed credits and get it transferred back to my home school.... I think it would build character.... finding the fortitude to resist.....

You should get a group together and go to BJU and pass out Agnostic brochures, beer and nudie mags(Preferably Big Booty Black Mamas).

Student Expectations:
Dishonesty, lewdness, sensual behavior, adultery, homosexuality, sexual perversion of any kind, pornography, illegal use of drugs, and drunkenness all are clearly condemned by God's Word and prohibited here. Further, we believe that biblical principles preclude gambling, dancing, and the beverage use of alcohol.
Well, there goes EVERYTHING FUN ABOUT COLLEGE LIFE.

On the plus side, they reversed their policy on interracial dating. Too bad it only happened in 2000.

The South Carolina university was thrust into the political spotlight last month when Bush gave a speech to the 6,000- member student body. Bush has since said he regretted not speaking out more forcefully.

"I'm heartened to hear that Bob Jones University has reversed its ban on interracial dating. It was wrong to begin with," Bush said in a written statement. "Tonight, the school has done the right thing."

In the weeks following Bush's visit, GOP rival John McCain called the policy "idiotic," lashed Bush for not criticizing the university sooner and launched a phone drive in Michigan targeting Catholic voters that drew attention to Bush's visit to Bob Jones, whose founders also have called Catholicism a "cult."

During Friday's interview with Larry King, Jones, a Bush supporter, said the criticism of the Texas governor is "totally unfair," saying the school has a "long tradition" of presidential candidates speaking there, including Ronald Reagan.

He said the intense news media scrutiny has tarnished the school's reputation.

"We're being defined as a racist school. That's all the media is talking about," he said, adding that "we don't hate Catholics, we love Catholics."

Jones said the university first implemented the dating ban more than five decades ago, "because we were trying ... to enforce something, a principle, that is much greater than this. We stand against the one world government, against the coming world of the antichrist."

"The principle upon which it was based is very important, but the rule is not. So we did away with it," he said.

"We realize that an interracial marriage is not going to bring in the world of antichrist by any means."

It wouldn't be a bad idea, except the entire campus is fenced in with security at the main gate.

hmmm like a compound...

Almost seems like a cult since they place so many restrictions. But I guess people still go there since the University is still around.

WTF! I cannot believe that people are insane enough to send their kids to this place. You know that no kid is going to want to go to BJU :)laugh: ) on their own free will. This "university" sounds more like a camp.

If I went there I would last about 2 hours max.

Abercrombie & Fitch and its subsidiary Hollister have shown an unusual degree of antagonism to the name of Christ and an unusual display of wickedness in their promotions. In protest, we will not allow articles displaying their logos to be worn, carried, or displayed (even if covered or masked in some way).

HAHAHAHAHA. That's so money it hurts
