Steve Warren<\/a> – December 9, 2020<\/p>\n

A prominent LGBT rights group is trying to persuade former Vice President Joe Biden and his presumptive administration to adopt guidelines that could lead to the closing of private Christian colleges and universities.<\/p>\n

Activists at the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) have written a document titled Blueprint for Positive Change<\/a>,<\/em>\u00a0which gives 85 pro-LGBT policy and legislative recommendations for a potential Biden administration to enact.<\/p>\n

One of the proposals in the HRC’s document calls for the US Department of Education to eliminate all exceptions for faith-based colleges and universities if they “discriminate or do not meet science-based curricula standards.”<\/p>\n

Last month, Dr. Al Mohler Jr., president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, warned about the HRC’s document in a commentary<\/a>, which he called “a direct threat to Christian education.”<\/p>\n

The word “discrimination,” he advised, is the key to what could come next.<\/p>\n

“The Blueprint is not ambiguous\u2014it makes detailed policy positions and recommendations, department by department, for the Biden Administration to deploy once the president-elect assumes office. From the Department of Agriculture to the Department of Health and Human Services, the Human Rights Campaign demands the enactment of policies to prohibit what is identified as discrimination,” Mohler wrote.<\/p>\n

Mohler also notes the HRC is camouflaging sexual orientation and gender identity politics as “science.”<\/p>\n

“The Human Rights Campaign is not known for any particular agenda on the creation-evolution front, nor is the group preoccupied with particle physics. The Human Rights Campaign is targeting issues of sexual orientation and gender identity, cloaking them in the language of ‘science.’ This is an undisguised effort to require Christian schools and colleges to abandon biblical authority or lose accreditation,” he explained.<\/p>\n
