Lee connection - gay pop-duo

Postby **Pastor Gary** » February 16th, 2008, 10:49 pm

In one of those odd GOOGLE accidents, I stumbled across a pop duo that was supposedly "Christian" in genre, and one of the guys is a Lee grad. When I went to their website, I was surprised/confused to find they are a gay couple -- their gay love-song music video is apparently played in certain trendy clothing stores (okay, Abercrombie & Fitch).

Are these guys well known? Popular? I am way out of touch... :shock:

Jason & DeMarco?

(Kind of R-Rated because of the overt homosexual affection.)

PG, Lee has become a very liberal school. In fact so much so, some of the COG Pastor's I know, will not recommend it for the youth of their Church.

Lee doesn't endorse homosexuality and it absurd of anyone to imply such. I have read an interview with the one that went to Lee. He says that he knew it was condemned at Lee, but came to an "new place" with who he was and his relationship with Christ.

You can find plenty of kids running from God at Lee but you also find plenty who are earnestly seeking Him. Like Jeff said, Lee's policies are pretty strict when it comes to student behavior.

Who said they did endorse homosexuailty ? I simply stated they have become a very liberal school. Some of the COG Pastors have concerns about the direction the School has gone. That is all.

Then what was you point about Lee then? It wouldn't make any sense unless you were addressing one of them being homosexual and from Lee and then saying Lee is is more liberal than it used to be. :roll:

MrDanger do you think being liberal means endorsing homosexuality ?

Some how Im missing the point here.

I am the one who mentioned Lee, only as an interesting aside: the guy from Creed, this guy, the American Idol contestants... just interesting; nothing more.

I understand that you brought up Lee, PG. Jack is the one that took it to the "Lee is too liberal" side. That was what I was addressing. He seemed to be drawing some parallel that a former student of Lee being gay has something to do with some pastors being concerned with Lee being too liberal.

I think a mole hill is becoming a mountain...

I did not have the impression that Cpt Jack was implying that Lee endorses alternative lifestyles. I thought and still do think that he was just expressing his opinion of the school in the wrong thread...

MrDanger you are the one who threw the lighter fluid on the fire by putting words in his mouth...

This thread was about a gay singing duo and there happened to be a Lee connection.

Lighten up.

Actually I thought that is what he was implying as well. Frankly I've not been to Lee, and I can't say personally, but working at a liberal "Christian" college that is in the same circle as Lee, I know they are night and day different from Berea, and have had collegues in the past who have commented about that difference, seeing a true Christian nature in Lee that is sadly lost at our school.

I have no desire to bash Lee. Its a good school, even if it has a liberal leaning. If I had serious reservations about the school my Wife and Daughter would not have gotten B.A.s form there. I have spent many thousands of dollars at that school.
