He saw a man appointed to the board of trustees that will bring disrepute upon the school, a man who used his position as pastor to abuse a victim of rape and protect the rapist.

Everyone admits that BJU is strict. <br /><br />So Chris comes voluntarily to a school he knows he will disagree with and signs an agreement that he will abide by the rules and expectations of the institution while attending. <br /><br />Then, not only does he break the rules and expectations, but he is also known for being extremely openly critical of BJU... the school he chose to attend. I'm no psychologist, but that ain't make no sense. <br /><br />Heck, people aren't even giving BJU credit for allowing the protest! A few years ago a group of homosexuals came to protest and then a group came to protest the homosexual protestors and BJU helped set up lines and everything for them all to keep it organized. But I guess that'd be within BJU controlling everything. <br /><br />So once Chris gets in with these angry alumni (who also voluntarily came to BJU) he gets used as a posterchild for being a jackass at a strict school that he consistently badmouths. And blogs like this go and make him a hero for defending some vague crusade. <br /><br />I just don't understand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-65552015955535112782012-04-29T18:21:04.098-04:002012-04-29T18:21:04.098-04:00http://thehidalgograincompany.wordpress.com/2012/0...http://thehidalgograincompany.wordpress.com/2012/04/28/evolution-of-a-rebel/<br /><br />The story is actually about a flip-flopper who got influenced by bitter alumni. <br /><br />And way to go.

You have it wrong.<br /><br />This all started when this young man realized Chuck Phelps was being appointed to the board of trustees at BJU.<br /><br />Chuck Phelps was the pastor at a church where a minor was raped, and Phelps was involved in shipping the girl out of state and not being completely honest with the congregation about the man who was the rapist. <br /><br />It takes heroes like Chris Peterman who are insiders (a student) to stand up for what is right. <br /><br />No one goes to BJU expecting a Chuck Phelps to be appointed to the Board.<br /><br />I love the Christian explanations here: you know how abusive this place is, so when you are abused why are you complaining? It is just another version of the abusive argument that the abused deserved what they got.<br /><br />Sick.FBC Jax Watchdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740366031265491559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-73685724170924786682012-04-29T15:17:10.943-04:002012-04-29T15:17:10.943-04:00Yeah, this kid's issue is a non-issue.

And I am WELL acquainted with the school, and the area having lived in the area for 20 years and also having relatives who worked there for multiple years. If you don't want a dictatorship, then you don't go there. One time I went to see a relative of mine and walked thru the grounds and there were these posters up that had pictures of modest dress, and non-modest dress, modest haircuts, and non-modest haircuts. Anybody who goes there HAS to know what it's all about. Of course you can't watch Glee there. That's why I would never go. And of course there are authoritarian types there. Thats why I would never go. I do, however, draw the line at supporting rape. Geez. But the kid HAD to know what he was getting in to there, anybody would.
