The Alliance Defense Fund also took on the issue of religious liberty through its third annual 'Pulpit Freedom Sunday' . . . 'The question at stake is: Who should decide what is preached from the pulpit?

'If "all comers" can join, then the majority can override the speech of any student group. Thus the true marketplace of ideas exists by the permission (or, more likely, apathy) of the majority. The potential for minority or disfavored groups at schools with an all-comers policy to self-censor to avoid controversy — and potential hostile takeovers — is high.'" | ADF News Release ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/06/29/christian-legal-society-loses-in-supreme-court-case/feed/ 0
