Gay Students at Christian College Announce Their Existence; College President Denies Their Existence and Sues Them

NOT students at Patrick Henry College

Gay students from the Christian school, Patrick Henry College, recently began a blog describing their experience of being gay and Christian. The college's president, Michael Farris, denied that the students exist. There are no gay students at Patrick Henry College, Farris insisted, and there never have been. He threatened to sue the bloggers for using the name "Patrick Henry" in association with homosexuality.

As I say in "Save Send Delete," I am one of millions of Christians who understands the Bible and Christ's example as teaching me to love all, including homosexuals, and as teaching me that God loves all, including homosexuals. I support that position in this essay, Homosexuality and the Bible.
