Nota bene: Updates will be posted as the media jumps on
this. I am blogging this as it is unfolding.
On the class
blog, I will try to keep my personal religious beliefs out of this. It is hard
to find an appropriately controversial subject to analyze without it having any
sort of personal impact.
So what we have here
is a holy way. Literally. The Vanderbilt administration has placed rules on the
student population that a faith-based organization cannot pick their leaders
based on faith. While different denominations of Christians, Muslims, Jews,
Buddhists, and other don’t normally agree, they’ve seemed to come to a strong
unity on this issue.
But what will the
media say? As this unfolds, we will discuss the handling especially by
mainstream media sources that cater to the left and to the right. God help us
when Glen Beck gets ahold of this, and when Nancy Grace states her case.
