...statement clarifying that the leadership criteria include an individual’s adherence to certain beliefs is necessary to preserve the group’s integrity and purpose, and in this case, the latter type ought to be permitted. Can, after all, a Christian group flourish with a non-Christian leading prayer? I doubt it. As the AACF constitution correctly states, “because we are a religious organization, the ability to lead is inextricably tied to religious beliefs...
...helm, where will she steer the monarchy now? The polls reveal some directions in which imperceptible change - or more - is needed. Asked whether the monarchy reflects today's multifaith Britain, only 21% agree; 49% disagree. The palace already works to include more ethnic minorities and representatives of non-Christian faiths in the Queen's events, but can be expected to do more of this.

Your article seemed to suggest that college students are divided into two groups: professed Christians-who abstain from drugs, alcohol, premarital sex and other vices-and all other students, who indulge in continuous debauchery. That is absurd. When I was a college student, I didn't drink, didn't smoke, didn't go to many parties. And I graduated with high honors. But I was a liberal agnostic, not a Christian. For anyone to imply that all non-Christian students are immoral is insulting and misleading...
