VAST DANGERS IN A SMALL PLACE

The law school would bar all projects and programs that might "discriminate unlawfully on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, disability, age, sex or sexual orientation." If the Christian Legal Society loses, the lesson drawn from the case is likely to be the one that proved to be decisive even though it was never fully argued: that it was indeed legitimate to bar discrimination based on sexual orientation and that it is legitimate for law schools and colleges and universities to make a moral insistence on that rule even if it means virtually pushing off the campus, and stamping as illegitimate, any groups that proclaim openly the orthodox teaching of Christianity and Judaism that has been woven into the life of this country from its beginning.
