Christian University Forbids Fundraiser Benefiting LGBT Homeless youth

We talk a lot about “Christian” hypocrisy here at BNR, but this incident might just take the cake: Andrews University in Michigan is forbidding a campus group from hosting a bake sale benefiting LGBT homeless youth because it “conflicts” with their mission.
