Fact 1: The only person prohibited from doing anything is Keaton. She is not allowed to either continue her education while maintaining her belief system nor is she allowed the professional credential necessary to participate and succeed in her field of choice.
Fact 2: The university is requiring remediation of beliefs in order to attain the desired degree. Were the university to grant the credential of her desired degree, the university would lose nothing.
But to the lawyers. This quote is not from some nobody. Joshua Block is "staff attorney with the ACLU LGBT Project" and this makes him a representative of the position of the ACLU on these matters. He says:
Last Friday, a federal court of appeals issued an important decision, setting limits on the right to use religion to discriminate. The case concerned Jennifer Keeton, a student enrolled in a graduate school counseling program who told her faculty that "as a high school counselor confronted by a sophomore student in crisis, questioning his sexual orientation, she would tell the student that it was not okay to be gay." Augusta State University, where Ms. Keeton was enrolled, ultimately expelled her from the program after she indicated she would be unable to counsel without imposing her religious views on her clients.That makes one point plain: The position of the court, the school, and the ACLU, is that the Christian belief system and ethic is not acceptable within this profession. Carte blanche has been given to other universities to add therapy for those holding the Christian belief system.
He also says:
The ACLU filed a brief arguing that a student who declares her intent to violate the university's professional standards through her conduct does not have a constitutional right to a court order requiring the university to let her work with clients.This is more than clear. The ACLU believes that the presence of Christian morality has no place within the four walls of the university. It is a Christianity-free zone. Give up your Christianity and you may enter.
Just as a medical school would be permitted to bar a student who refused to administer blood transfusions for religious reasons from participating in clinical rotations, so ASU may prohibit Keeton from participating in its clinical practicum if she refuses to administer the treatment it has deemed appropriate. Every profession has its own ethical codes and dictates. When someone voluntarily chooses to enter a profession, he or she must comply with its rules and ethical requirements. Lawyers must present legal arguments on behalf of their clients, notwithstanding their personal views. Judges must apply the law, even when they disagree with it. So too counselors must refrain from imposing their moral and religious values on their clients.Ethics? I wonder what is their ethical foundation? But that's another discussion. What is important here is that the ACLU is becoming even clearer in their religious bigotry. Faith need not be accommodated or tolerated. No disagreement is allowed when it comes to the homosexual agenda.
My main point here is to the homosexual community, and it's not what you might think. When it comes to arbitrary class designations, be careful. The benefits of class are as easily arbitrarily removed as they are arbitrarily granted. Take the case of the two black girls last year who attacked the corss-dresser in their restroom. They fought to defend their dignity and almost got charged with a hate crime. It seems that the homosexual class takes precedence over other class designations -- in that case both black and female. The homosexual community is being used for political gain and nothing more. It is being used to manipulate society for the advantage of communist organizations (ACLU) and socialists (today's liberals in general) as they seek to incite revolution. Do not be surprised if you are called on to "occupy" something and disrupt society for no clear purpose or end. That is the ultimate status of a pawn. And you are almost there.
