Hope College Refuses to Hear Gay Voices

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Hope College in Holland, Michigan has reportedly disallowed Lance Black, screenwriter for ‘Milk,’ to join a roundtable discussion on sexuality.  Now, Hope College has been associated since its establishment in the nineteenth century with the Reformed Church of America (an offshoot of Calvinism).  If you know your religious history, that’s enough to make yourself a [...]

I’ll preface this post with a little slice of life.  I’m currently house sitting for my parents down in Virginia on a big 8 acre farm.  Let me tell you that it’s extremely relaxing, the town has very friendly people, and it’s great to get away from it all.  On the other hand, my parents [...]

More Students in Flint! Hooray!

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

No…that’s not what Flint will look like if they get these students, it’s just what they’ll miss, and some in Michigan may not like it.  Unfortunately, there are still loads of people who harbor hatred towards Middle-Easterners, and something tells me there may be a lot of those in Flint.  Well…you know those students I [...]
