Text Any textual data included in the document Recently, Dr. Phillip Johnson spoke at Ursinus about alternatives to Darwin's theory of natural selection. Dr. Johnson offered an explanation for the reason so many people believe in Darwinian evolution: it is an escape mechanism used by people to get away from the moral order of the universe as commanded by God. Accepting the possibility that humans, in all their complexity, evolved according to the process of impersonal natural selection is effectively saying that God is not a necessary prerequisite for humans to exist. But,in making this claim, Dr. Johnson failed to realize that God is not the only source of morality. Just because a person may not acknowledge a God, and the moral laws that go along with that God, this does not mean that those people are prone to go on adulterous, murderous, not-loving-your-neighbor-as-yourself rampages through society. Most people recognize the destructiveness of such behaviors on their own, without the help of a God, and this prevents most of them from doing such things. To draw Darwin's ideas out a little further, the whole concept of a God may be an adaptive device that was created by humans to help keep society functioning smoothly. "God" is a good adaptation because in order for moral laws to be effective, they need to be lodged with someone or something that is considered authoritative and legitimate beyond question, and that something can only be wholly outside of human nature- hence comes from Gods, created in different forms by human societies the world over, over all the time. The moral laws of any society hold that society together in a shared sense of right and wrong, and the more people are synchronized with those ideas, the less conflict there should be. Less conflict means more stability, and more of a chance of presenting a unified front against outside threats to the society. God and religions are pretty effective tools which societies have adopted to ensure their own continued existence. Of course it all becomes ironic, yet tragic, when religion is used as the basis for great atrocities and crimes against humanity – because unfortunately, most religions have the idea that nobody else can believe something different about what God is or what God stands for. The once-adaptive concepts of religion and God are often used destructively, drawing lines between who can be loved, and who must be changed before they can be accepted. It's a tragedy that concepts with such great potential for human society should be turned against each other, used as tools of intolerance and discrimination, and as a means of perpetuating stereotypes and hatred. Not all religions and concepts of God have this same bleak conclusion, but many of them do. Therefore I take serious issue with any viewpoint that insists morality comes from a God, where wanting to escape from religion is equated with wanting to escape from morality and common decency. Escaping from religion is like taking a breath on your own, for the first time.

Text Any textual data included in the document I thought I would take this opportunity to put an end to the discussion concerning homosexuality. As some of you already noted, this thread is tiresome and we have better things to think about at college like the new mall and what's on television. I am going to take you on a journey that most heterosexuals will never see. You are about to witness the "homosexual lifestyle" (which differs from the "heterosexual lifestyle" due to the fact that we dress better). Welcome to the miserable world of the homosexual. Meetings are once a week. The location changes so that there is not undue burden on one host to provide the wine, cheese, and fresh cut flowers, although matching place settings can also be difficult. During the summer there is a barbecue. After singing show tunes, the oath is administered. Our facilitator, who looks remarkably like Judy Garland, calls the meeting to order. Most of our time is spent discussing the homosexual agenda. Our recruiters present the latest figures. Many of you don't realize that we must all devote one year to missionary work, a policy from we which we are indebted to the Mormons. This is a relatively easy requirement satisfied by either hanging around schoolyards or the Barbra Streisand section of the local record store. Lately we have been experimenting with various "reversion therapies." Our scientists have noted successes in this area. Impressionable teenagers are locked in a room and are forced to watch television. After twenty-four hours of near exclusive heterosexual representations of adultery, violence, misogyny, and irresponsible sexual behavior, teens are susceptible to an alternative. For those recruits who stubbornly adhere to a Judeo-Christian value system, a close reading of the Bible usually yields "morally" based prohibitions on eating pork (Leviticus II :7), wearing clothes of more than one fabric (Leviticus 19: 19), wearing gold or pearls (I Timothy 2:9), not to mention divorce, which carries a penalty of stoning (Deuteronomy 22:22). The hypocrisy of selectively ignoring only those rules considered anachronistic is not lost on the plebes. The meeting usually concludes with an induction ceremony. With your right hand on the International Male catalog, one swears allegiance to Rock Hudson and pledges to have thousands of sex partners. In return you are given the " lifestyle" card, which is good for discounts at most hairdressers and florists. I've been told it can also be used for travel discounts. Tea is then served (herbal for the lesbians) and we discuss antiques. I hope this puts an end to any lingering questions about our lifestyle. I forgot to mention that if anyone is interested in trying it out, there is an end of the year special discount for those who sign up before January I. It includes a free gym membership. Feel free to ask questions.

Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data newspaper article Text Any textual data included in the document When all of the fuss over GALA's meeting started, I sat by and watched. I did not want to get involved, because I felt that the uproar would disappear in a few days. Then Dr. Nagy's first letter appeared in the Grizzly. I was disturbed by the manner in which he expressed his views, but I still said nothing. When I received this week's issue of The Griz· :Iy with Dr. Nagy's second leuer, I was so enraged that I felt I had to reply. The contents of the "esteemed" doctor's letter perturbed me. First, Dr. Nagy made the brass assumption that Gina Oboler was going to apologize. It was, at the very least, insensitive, ifnot downright obnoxious of Dr. Nagy to assume that Dr. Oboler . was going to apologize to him. Second, Dr. Nagy continued to compare homosexuals to adulterers and pedophiles. This comparison is completely unfounded. Homosexuals do NOT infringe on any other person's basic rights, and they only ask that others treat them in the same accord. Adulterers and pedophiles, while possessing the lack of ability to control their sexual appetites, as Dr. Nagy states homosexuals do, also hun others in the process. I can recall numerous times when a young wife has cried because her husband cheated on her, and I also have had experience working with children who are victims of incest and pedophilia. I cannot recall a time when any homosexual has corne to me, or any one I know, and complained that their lover was a homosexual. I do not believe that Dr. Oboler was encouraging adultery and pedophilia, but rather encouraging the fact that ALL people should be free to love whomever they choose, as long as that love does not infringe on the personal rights of the other individual. He also states that he encourages people to overcome their handicaps, insinuating that homosexuality is one of those handicaps. Homosexuality should not be considered a handicap. People like Dr. Nagy tum it into one. Dr. Nagy writes about a young relative who died of AIDS, and he writes that the young man had been a cheerful person until the misery of his behavior began to torment him. What was really tormenting him was the disease that was ravaging his body. Later in his letter, Dr. Nagy states that "this disease has claimed the lives of many people who do not engage in the activities that are most likely to transmit it." I would like to pose a question to Dr. Nagy. Ifthese "innocent" people do not engage in the activities that will transmit AIDS, then how, pray tell, did they get it? It is true that there have been cases where people have received tainted blood through transfusions, such as Ryan White. With today 's advanced medical technology, there are tests administered to blood before it is used for transfusions to prevent transmissions. In effect. the only conceivable ways that a person can acquire AIDS is through sharing needlesand sexual contact; not only homosexual sex, but any sex. This fact is further illustrated by the point that the fastest growing group to contact AJDS is young women. How would Dr. Nagy's theory explain this? Dr. Nagy also states that his view is the most prominent one. It is almost as ifhe is attempting to justify his opinion about homosexuals by saying that it is the majority opinion. The majority is not always correct. Slavery is an excel· lent example of this point. Yet, Dr. Nagy would lead us to believe that any view that is in the majority is automati· cally the correct one. Dr. Nagy writes in his conclusion that two students who wrote in response to his first letter came "dangerously close to intolerance and bigotry" when they said that they would not want to be in his class. I feel compelled to agree with those two students that they would not want to be in a class with a professor who disapproves of homosexual behavior. Such a professor is not an open minded person, and I do not believe this environment is conducive to learning. Dr. Nagy needs to understand the fact that there are people in this world that do not adhere to his moral standards, and no matter what his opinions about those people are. they 'till deserve his respect as fellow human beings. Our Constitution states that ALL men are created cqual. This idea is included in our Constitution, and the Bible s!\ltes that we should not judge each other. because the onl~ true judge is God.
