As this thread has gone to a third page, I am issueing a third page warning. Either Brother Murphy or I will close this thread after we return from morning services tomorrow (it is now 845p local).

And there is nothing amusing about the false accusations that you raise without any hard evidence to back up what you are saying.

there has been a supreme court case regarding the racist policies of bju - here is an extract:

The IRS's 1970 interpretation of 501(c)(3) was correct. It would
be wholly incompatible with the concepts underlying tax exemption to
grant tax-exempt status to racially discriminatory private educational
entities. Whatever may be the rationale for such private schools'
policies, racial discrimination in education is contrary to public
policy. Racially discriminatory educational institutions cannot be
viewed as conferring a public benefit within the above "charitable"
concept or within the congressional intent underlying 501(c)(3).

Since May 29, 1975, the University has
permitted unmarried Negroes to enroll; but a disciplinary rule prohibits
interracial dating and marriage. That rule reads: There is to be no
interracial dating.

1. Students who are partners in an interracial marriage will be
expelled. [461 U.S. 581]

2. Students who are members of or affiliated with any group or
organization which holds as one of its goals or advocates interracial
marriage will be expelled.

3. Students who date outside of their own race will be expelled.

4. Students who espouse, promote, or encourage others to violate the
University's dating rules and regulations will be expelled. App. in No.
81-3, p. A197. The University continues to deny admission to applicants
engaged in an interracial marriage or known to advocate interracial
marriage or dating. Id. at A277.

that is the reason they are not tax exempt and the reason that their unaccredited "degrees" are worthless.

As to the interracial dating rules, the old ones referred to above have been rescinded as of mid 2001. As for a BJU degree being "worthless", I find that difficult to fully accept. There may be individual institutions that for reasons of their own do not accept a BJ degree. However as I read the alumni news of what various graduates are doing and where they are continuing their studies, I reject the blanket application of the word "worthless".
