TO THE EDITOR:
As a graduate of UNC, I was angered by the opinion piece entitled “Liberty? What Liberty?”
Why is UNC playing Liberty a “cause for further concern” as stated in this article? Would this be a concern if Liberty were a non-Christian university? The author calls Liberty’s student code “harmful dogma.”
What is “harmful” about women dressing modestly? What is “harmful” about choosing not to watch R-rated movies? What is “harmful” about no premarital sex? And why is the study of creationism so threatening to the academic world?
Evolution is a theory, not a fact. Show me the proof for evolution. How can any intelligent person study the human body and conclude we just randomly evolved?
Before The Daily Tar Heel publishes such a blatantly anti-Christian opinion, you should check your target audience. There are many Christian students among the UNC population.
I thought UNC encouraged its students to embrace diversity and acceptance. Why is Christianity the one thing that gets left out of that? Why is Christianity, like creationism, so threatening to the academic world? A follow-up (letter) goes on to say “we invited Liberty here so we could unleash the wrath of our football team on them.” Next time, I hope we don’t wait so long to unleash our wrath.
