Pat DollardExcerpted from Campus Reform: A Christian club at Chico State University (CSU) may lose its status as a campus group because its requirement that its leaders be Christians violates a state anti-discrimination policy.
The California State University system said asking leaders to sign a statement of faith violates a 2011 executive order which forbids discrimination based on “race, religion, national origin, ethnicity, color, age, gender, marital status, citizenship, sexual orientation, or disability.”
But Greg Jao, the national field director for the Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, said the group should be an exception since its leaders’ duties are religious.

It seems that nowadays there are so many things like this that sounded so reasonable when the laws and rules were being formulated, but now become obvious weapons that were set into place to be activated later. Like the UN’s goals indicating the US uses much more of the Earth’s resources than other areas of the globe, so a redistribution of wealth would be in order. That also sounded fairly reasonable, but now we are discovering what they really had in mind with that — redistribution of everything we have to the bankers. Agenda 21 belongs in the trash can and Maurice Strong in the morgue.
