Important Quotes from Religious School Leadership
John Elmore, coordinator of public relations for Cornerstone University of Grand Rapids, Michigan — which was founded in 1941 and has 1,300 undergraduates and a total enrollment of 2,329 — has said “homosexuality does not fit in with the value system of our campus.”
”We believe in the Biblical stand on sex, and the Biblical stand on morality,” Elmore said. He said that students are not asked about their sexual preference when applying, but that “if we recognize that kind of behavior, he is not automatically pitched off campus.” Someone on the faculty will talk to that student first and tell him to change his ways, Elmore said.
Cornerstone University is not known for acceptance. Cornerstone’s president, Rex M. Rogers, once referred to feminism as “un-Biblical.” Elmore deferred questions about the referral to Rogers, who could not be reached for comment.
