This isn't about faith. It's about hate.

A private school is not a religion, it's a private company, it shouldn't be able to be legally homophobic any more than any other private company can, the government should intervene as it would with any other.

religious segregation is unacceptable. whilst religion is exempt from human equality legislation then society will always be full of sexists, racists and bigots.

@GodCreatesGays2 It is a religious school, meaning that it is a private institution. What laws did the school break? It is private institution that has a right to refuse server to anyone to anyone as they see fit. How is the choices of being a lesbian a human right?

@Seythia Then, they should have known that the school does not allow lesbians at the school. There is no hate on the part of the school. Because, they are follow their beliefs. Just like you are follow your beliefs. In thinking that the school are Bigots.

@fullmetalswcc wrongly asserts, "Yes, individual organization does have a right to follow their beliefs."

If they are public institutions supported by tax dollars, they do NOT have the right to break the law, and such outrageous, irrational prejudice is a violation of human rights laws.

[Seythia]

@fullmetalswcc Yes, maybe they're Christians. And they just wanted to go to a Christian school. Bigotry shouldn't be encouraged. At all.

[fullmetalswcc]

@GodCreatesGays2 , Yes, individual organization does have a right to follow their beliefs. Unless you do not believe in individual, and individual organization rights. Whether you think there beliefs are immoral or not is irrelevant. Because, would you want the Government tell you what your beliefs are? Plus, they had a choice whether they went to that school or not. 

[GodCreatesGays2]

@fullmetalswcc, an organization does NOT have the right to make immoral decisions based on bigotry. If the girls had been kicked out of any institution for being Christian, for being black, for being left-handed, there would be hell to pay. This is the same thing. Prejudice has no place anywhere.

[fullmetalswcc]

So, If an organization get taxes. Then, they should not be allow to make a decision base on moral beliefs(religion). Even though that organization is forced to pay taxes. Talk about forcing your beliefs on to others.

@TheGoalSetter WOW your interpretation of them is horrendous. When it says just as in womankind it means that woman shouldn't be with other women.
