Black Christian Disinvited from Cornell Debate Because She Believes in Traditional Marriage
[PJ] Jannique Stewart, a pro-life speaker with Life Training Institute was invited to speak at an abortion debate at Cornell University but she was disinvited when the organizers realized she believes in the traditional Christian teachings on sexuality and marriage.

"In January, I was invited to speak on April 23rd, at Cornell University's Political Union (CPU), regarding the fact that abortion is a moral wrong," Stewart wrote in a Facebook post on Saturday. Everything was on track until the organizers examined the bio she sent them.

"I received a shocking phone call in which I was told that I was being DISINVITED. Why? I was being DISINVITED because of my outspoken beliefs regarding biblical sexuality," she wrote. "Specifically, because of two main beliefs: 1. Sexual activity should be reserved for marriage 2. Natural marriage defined by God as the Union of one man and one woman."

In a statement emailed to PJ Media, Stewart explained that her ministry, Love Protects, "addresses a range of issues dealing with biblical sexuality: abstinence until marriage, pro-life, anti-pornography, to issues regarding the traditional and biblical view on marriage and LGBTQ issues."

Stewart insisted: "YES, it was made very clear to me that I was being DISINVITED invited because of my views. That is VIEWPOINT DISCRIMINATION."

The story gets even worse, however. The organizers did not just disinvite her, they called her beliefs bigotry.

#1 Obvious racism and sexism at Cornell. I can't think of any other explanation.

#2 Fragile psyches at Cornell must be protected from injurious free thinking.

#3 Ya know, for a bunch of people who think religion is silly and the Bible is full of lies, they sure do go through hoops about what The Book thinks about them.

It is almost like the XXHOTBBQ community is a bit touchy and confrontational. You know; emotionally unstable.

And these people, who hate these institutions of Church and Christianity and Marriage, want anything to do with them; getting a wedding cake to get married in a church. Its insane.

People invented Klingon out of whole cloth, certainly a term for our devotion together through love for the rest of our lives can be concocted?

#4 As opposed to the lib standard, which is: "Marriage is between whomever and whatever, and if you start counting how many creatures and items are involved, you are a bigot!"

#5 So they held a debate and, to insure the winner they wanted, only invited one side.
