Here is another example of intolerance academic crowd as reported by the Center for Arizona Policy. Don’t miss the letter to the editor. Also CAP notes that NBC edits out all references to God in its broadcast of “Veggie Tales.”
“Well
known University of Arizona Wildcat Basketball coach Lute Olson took
flack last week for endorsing a Christian radio station on a billboard.
Olson?s face appears on the billboards that encourage Tucsonans to
listen to 88.5 Family Life Radio. A U of A faculty member took him to
task in Arizona Daily Star letter to the editor.
Katrina Trevor, Ph.D, a faculty member at the university, wrote that
his endorsement of Christian radio is in conflict with his employer,
the university. Because of his highly visible role at the university
his first amendment rights are apparently unavailable to him. Why is it
that those who speak of diversity and tolerance are attempting to
silence a man who is endorsing an organization he believes in? And why
does the diversity and tolerance crowd only speak out against Christian
values? Their message is simple: we are diverse and tolerant unless you
are a vocal Christian. That doesn?t seem to us like a very tolerant
message. We support you Coach, so turn up the music and enjoy 88.5
Family Life Radio!”
