Only one of us is embarrassing themselves and I’m entirely confident that it’s not me.

My concern for her is that the Young Life and Church stuff, while great isn’t a strong EC. It’s taken up a lot of the time sports used to since she got injured and won’t qualify for varsity with the amount of time she’s taken off tennis. But she loves these two activities but wondering if their time sucks? Schools she’s targeting are Clemson, USC, Auburn, Ole Miss, Georgia, Sewanee, potentially W&L and Wake as reaches.

I'd be surprised if it were an issue at any of these schools, having visited my family in the South frequently over the last 3 decades.

That's not true. That's the kind of thing right wingers with a persecution complex tell themselves and progressives say to justify their hate.

But among normal and sane people there's no hatred towards Christians. For an EC, put things in a service context - helping people. Even Harvard and Columbia want kind people. Being part of a mainstream Christian or Catholic group - or any religious oriented group - that helps others is definitely not a negative. It's not 2020 anymore.

Catholics are anti-choice/ forced birthers, and they just banned gender-affirming care from all their hospitals.

Please explain what "gender affirming care" is for the uneducated. Please spell it out clearly.

This article spells it out clearly (ie - the catholics just banned it).

Gender affirming care in a Catholic hospital is almost as bad as having abortion services. There is no upside to offering those services and there are plenty of other resources outside of Catholic hospital settings for those who want it. The services are basically plastic surgery and hormonal treatments to transform people to a sex other than their own. It goes against the natural order and the name "care" is misleading and inaccurate. The services are barbaric in some cases. I am glad the Catholics are pushing back on this. Good for them.

Um, every college has a problem with white Christians in 2025 (except maybe the Christian universities).

So traditional Orthodox Judaism does not accept homosexuality and neither do the vast majority of Islamic scholars. Does that mean Orthodox Jews and Muslims should also hide their religious activities? And if not, why do admissions counselors allow them to hold such views but not evangelical Christians?

The Catholic Church has always had a tempestuous relationship with science, and this is another example of it.

Younglife is a cult that spreads hate. Allways everyday. Never ever would I hire someone that had that on their resume. I hire lots of young CS and Eng degrees, nope, no way. Who hires from the non science, bad at math crowd.

Science? You consider carving tissue out of ones forearm to create a penis to be science? I consider it to be barbarism. Should be outlawed altogether.

Good...I doubt they would want to work for a bigot like you anyway.

We are not talking about only "homosexuality," . We are talking about pure hate. Young Life is 100% a racist hate group ie cult.

Hate is hate, no matter what the religion.
Young life is what we are talking about, which is just a disgusting organization with dummies.

My concern for her is that the Young Life and Church stuff, while great isn’t a strong EC. It’s taken up a lot of the time sports used to since she got injured and won’t qualify for varsity with the amount of time she’s taken off tennis. But she loves these two activities but wondering if their time sucks? Schools she’s targeting are Clemson, USC, Auburn, Ole Miss, Georgia, Sewanee, potentially W&L and Wake as reaches.

I'd be surprised if it were an issue at any of these schools, having visited my family in the South frequently over the last 3 decades.

Competitive private LOL

That hasn't been true for hundreds of years. Among all the major religions, Catholicism is especially welcoming of science. Not too many Jesuit morons out there.

Now if you want to talk about Islam, some Hinduism, ultra-orthodox Jews, and evangelical Christians, that's different. But Catholicism has a healthy relationship with science. As a religion, they will try to center science in a moral realm, but there's nothing wrong with that. That's not denial. That's just accommodating science and how it relates to the human condition.

I find it hard to accept anything you write - much less allegations of hatred - when you display such intense and vitriolic hatred. You may wish to consider counseling.

I guess higher rates of suicide, homelessness, depression and self-harm are better for kids with gender dysphoria according to the Church.
