Let us discuss Christianity in a nutshell: Those who are Christian believe they are born sinners because of Adam and Eve’s original sin.

Why do we allow the spread of hate?


Walking across campus in early March my ears were accosted with the words of hate. A group of people had once again descended upon the campus to “spread the word of God” to us unholy students. Having not heard one of these speakers in a long time and finding their shouts of nonsense highly entertaining, [...]
