what is bob jones university?!

<p>so i guess if they have Financial Accounting courses they don't use the book we used last semester--it included the Abercrombie & Fitch Year-End report as a sample</p>

<p>Wow, Pensacola is absolutely ridiculous. The funniest thing is that it isn't even accreditied. I want to go to one of those colleges and plant pr0n and do all kinds of aweful things.</p>

Hey, don't hate on BYU. A female friend from high school is taking belly dancing lessons there. :eek:</p>

<p>My cousin and his family live in the same town as BJU. Funny how they never mentioned it (I found it out by chance when looking up the U in a dictionary).</p>

<p><a href="http://www.bju.edu/prospective/expect/dress.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.bju.edu/prospective/expect/dress.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I wouldn't go to BJU if they pay me $200,000 to go there</p>

<p>Hey, go to Princeton Review and find BJU. It says that students looking at BJU should also look at: Harvard, Stanford, Duke...</p>

<p>?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?</p>

<p>2 most popular majors...accounting and elementary school education...
I'm not so sure Christlikeness means getting your CPA. Would anyone here specifically want your children to be taught by a BJU graduate?</p>

<p>Because the only people looking at it are people at this site.</p>

<p>Same thing with that all black religios school Paul Quinn.</p>

<p>hmmm...
live and let live!
lol</p>

<p>

Don't be so narrow-minded. My IB English teacher went to Bob Jones, and she was a good teacher.</p>

<p>To call someone critisizing BJU narrowminded strikes me as quite ironic, or sardonic, considering the BJU is EXTREMELY narrow minded in most things...just a thought</p>

<p>Defining someone by where he went to school is very narrow minded in my opinon. BJU may be narrow-minded, it doesn't mean that every student it produces has to be narrow minded.</p>

<p>I have no idea how anyone could deal with going to a school like that. It's much more strict that most high schools.</p>

<p>Its really odd that you all, most claiming to be open minded, liberal thinking, live and let live mined, would be so critical of BJU and their rules. You are the same people that want the rest of society to accept all ways life but yet you are acting just like the ones you ridicule. Sort of two faced I believe. </p>

<p>Its also really funny to see how naive most of you all are. You dont even know what you are talking about and you are making things up as you go. </p>

<p>There are several schools around like BJU. Of course you already have Liberty and Pensacola Christian which my sister graduated from with a teaching degree. There is also Tennessee temple in Chattanooga, Hyles Anderson in Gary,IN , Pacific Coast Christian, and Indiana Baptist in Indy which I went to for a semester. Yea I had enough demerits to get kicked out twice. I ended up going to U of Kentucky and graduating with distinction. </p>

<p>I dont agree with all the rules even though most have good reasons based on the bible. These schools produce some of societies most moral, ethical and productive citizens. So dont knock it too much. And yes you will find exceptions to that rule but for the most part its true. They teach responsibility and honor, things you dont see too much anymore in the secular arena. </p>

<p>The secular liberals want to force on the rest of society their values and cant understand why they wont accept them but those of you here are guilty of the same thing as some of the post indicate. </p>

<p>One poster said the president of BJU said if Muslims gained control they would kill people. They are killing people now. The Koran teaches that those that dont believe as they do are to be killed. What he claims has some merit although not all Muslims follow the Koran as strictly as others.</p>

<p>There's liberalism and then there's conservatism. BJU follows the latter.</p>

<p>Ok seriously, I dont want this to turn into a huge religious debate or anything, but someone said this, </p>

<p>"One poster said the president of BJU said if Muslims gained control they would kill people. They are killing people now. The Koran teaches that those that dont believe as they do are to be killed. What he claims has some merit although not all Muslims follow the Koran as strictly as others."</p>

<p>Ok, I'm muslim, you claim we are killing people now, who are these people exactly?
I live in Saudi, I have a lot of christian friends, none of them are dead...hmm...isnt that weird?
Just to clarify something else, the Koran doesnt say kill all those who don't follow Islam.
I hate it when people make these huge generalizations about other cultures/religions they no nothing about it.</p>

<p>I agree with juggieburger. I'm also a muslim and there's a lot of misconceptions about Islam.
The Quran says to fight people who attack Islam not just those who aren't Muslim. There's a big difference. For years now both christians and jews have been living peacefully in Muslim countries without being killed! The ignorance in the West about Islam is sometimes maddening.</p>

<p>chuckdvc....w-o-w. </p>

<p>I don't even know how to respond.</p>

<p>This only shows your ignorance to Islam. But FYI, Christians are killing people now too. (IRA, Bombings at Planned Parenthood, etc. You could even say the War in Iraq if you want to stretch things that far.)</p>

<p>If an institution says it believes want Catholics and Muslims are demonic people, I think that skews any moral judgement they might have.</p>

<p>No. There is liberalism, then there's conservatism, and then there's fundamentalist nutjobs. BJU follows the last of those three.</p>
