Texas's Baylor Univ. Offers Class on Evils of Gay Life
Baylor, a private Baptist university in Waco, Tex., was offering until late last week a class called "Homosexuality as Gateway Drug." Now, the course is entitled "Family Studies."

When sites like Reddit and Buzzfeed became aware of "Homosexuality as Gateway Drug" last week, Baylor renamed the class to "Family Studies" within 24 hours.

3. No, but they do forbid premarital sex because it might lead to dancing.
:rofl:

4. Sounds like a fun class.
I have often found that those "opposed" to homosexuality usually have a very fertile imagination. Might be worth taking the class, if not for laughs, then for some great kinky ideas! :evilgrin:

6. Maybe they should focus more on their own familes
Divorce, adultery and teen pregnancy are through the roof in the so-called "Bible Belt".

11. Well, I almost made a totally incorrect post.
When I read the article I couldn't believe what I was reading, because my hubby used to work in research for HIV and Aids research at the Baylor college of medicine in Houston, and this just didn't sound at all like the place he worked at...

Then I asked him about it, and he said that it is COMPLETELY unrelated to the Wacko university.. totally seperate entities.

I've never been to Wacko Texas, but it sounds par for the course in that backwoods, messed up place.
