This is Horrible - but I have to wonder..........if this kind of stuff is
going on at the college,  then we can rest assured more garbage is going on
there - so WHY would a 'christian' be going to that garbage dump to try to
get an 'education'   in the first place ??

$191.00 dues where some of it goes to this ignorant paper ?    How about
EVERY  Christian cutting off all TUITION - PERIOD  !!!

                  Oregon student newspaper runs pictures
                  of Jesus as a homosexual.  It is time
                  to speak out!
 
                  Dear Robin,
 
                  The Da Vinci Delusion - Order your copy
                  today - $25 The Associated Students of
                  the University of Oregon (ASUO) has
                  refused to apologize for an obscene
                  anti-Christian assault in the campus
                  newspaper Insurgent.
 
                  The March edition of the Insurgent ran
                  one of the strongest attacks on
                  Christianity I have seen.  The paper
                  ran graphics depicting Jesus as a
                  homosexual.   One was a depiction of a
                  naked Jesus on the cross with an
                  erection; the other, titled
                  Resurrection, showed a naked Jesus
                  kissing another naked man, both
                  sporting erections.
 
                  (To see the graphics, click here.  We
                  warn you that they are extremely
                  offensive.  We have pixilated out the
                  private parts.)
 
                  When asked for an apology by Students
                  of Faith, ASUO refused to give one
                  saying that "there are no grounds for
                  demanding an apology from Insurgent."
                  The ASUO went on to defend the
                  publication saying that the newspaper
                  contributes "to the cultural and
                  physical development of the university
                  community."
 
                  The Insurgent would never show a naked
                  graphic of the Rev. Martin Luther King
                  kissing another man, both sporting
                  erections.  But offending Christians
                  was of no concern to the Insurgent or
                  to University President Dave Frohmayer.
 
                  The ASUO Women's Center tolerates no
                  defamation against gays and lesbians.
                  Three years ago, ASUO demanded that the
                  university radio station, KUGN, drop
                  Michael Savage (a conservative talk
                  show host).  The university promptly
                  discontinued the program.  But
                  depicting Jesus as a homosexual is
                  perfectly OK.
 
                  Here is what Insurgent Student Editor
                  Jessica Brown had to say about the
                  graphics.  "I have to say it is really
                  fun to offend people.  It is fun to
                  break the rules.  If it pi--es people
                  offâ?¦good that's the point!!!  It has
                  here in this office.  So read, get
                  pi--ed and talk about it."
 
                  Incidentally, the University forces all
                  students, including Christians, to pay
                  student dues of $191.00 per term, part
                  of which goes to support the Insurgent.
 
 
 
 
                   Take Action
 
 
 
                   Send an email letter to the Governor,
                   University President and other Oregon
                   officials protesting this
                   anti-Christian bigotry.
 
                   Very important!  Please forward this
                   to your friends and family.  It is
                   important for them to become aware of
                   the growing anti-Christian bias in our
                   country.  It is time for Christians to
                   speak out saying that bigotry against
                   Christiansâ?"or any faithâ?"is
                   unacceptable.

                   your church and Sunday school.
