Baylor, Worse Than Berkeley? Inside Their War on Christianity
I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEISTShow Notes
What happens when a university that claims to stand for Christianity makes it nearly impossible to host an event defending the truth of the Christian faith? And could it possibly involve extortion? That's exactly what happened to us earlier this week (for the first time in 20 years of college visits!), and Frank is bringing the receipts!
What started as a frustrating encounter with Baylor's administration has exposed some troubling questions about what's really being taught at this "Christian" university. From administrative roadblocks to unbiblical professors and courses, Frank reveals why there's much more at stake than just a cancelled event. In many ways, Baylor is waging a war on Christianity. You'll learn:
What six obstacles did Baylor's administration put in the way of Frank's visit? What similar problems did Ratio Christi President Corey Miller encounter with Baylor? How is Baylor violating its own policies on human sexuality? What unbiblical courses and degree programs are being offered at Baylor and who is teaching them? Why is cultural Marxism so destructive to communities? Why did Baylor recently return a grant of $700,000? Why did progressive "Christian" Professor Greg Garrett wrongly criticize J.K. Rowling on X? Why is it sometimes more dangerous to send your kids to a compromised Christian school than a secular university?
While this topic is difficult to address, it's too important to ignore, and Frank is just getting started! Don't miss the next episode as he addresses objections related to academic freedom, reveals how Baylor is violating their own core values on inclusion and diversity, explains what the Bible actually teaches on these issues, and MUCH more.

Have you ever heard a pastor say, "I just want to preach the Gospel," or "Christians shouldn't get involved in politics"? It sounds spiritual, but is staying out of politics really the biblical thing to do?
