Atheistic Christians: It Appears an Investigation of the Southwest Baptist University Trustees and Governance is Inevitable

The initial informal feedback from the Southwest Baptist University Trustee meeting has not been positive.

Was this the usual immature bickering, defensiveness, and bullying of several of the Southwest Baptist University Trustees? Or, was this the comprehensive "spirit" of the entire Board?

Time will tell.

However, given this belligerent response, it seems a full and formal investigation of the Southwest Baptist University Trustee Board (as well as the individual Trustees, governance, legal staff, administration, faculty and staff) may be inevitable.

This was not wholly unexpected. From our experience, it appears few of the Southwest Baptist University Trustees, governance, or staff of Southwest Baptist University are actual Christians -- particularly as applies to their lifestyles, relationships with others, and understanding of civil law.

They are, in effect, *Atheistic Christians.

*Atheistic: rejecting any belief in God

Reconciliation may not be possible, though other options are certainly viable.

Regardless, The Trinity Contract will be posted this Valentine's Day, February 14, so that anyone -- whether involved in the original unethical and criminal conduct or not -- may participate.

There is still one more day of the Trustee meeting, but -- at this time -- it seems that reconciliation may well have failed.

Marie's formal letter will be presented tomorrow (Tuesday) morning.
