Sometimes even I'm forced to side with the godly. I'd just as soon have tax payer funded scholarships for theologians as PE teachers.
Davey sued Washington state when it rescinded a grant to help pay his tuition at private Northwest College because he decided to study theology. Since then, lower courts have reached conflicting decisions on the case, and this year the state asked the Supreme Court to hear it ...
Howard Wilson, vice president of student life at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, Calif., has said banning taxpayer money for scholarships for ministry students is discriminatory. "It says a person who's going to become a doctor has more to contribute than a person who's going to become a pastor."
My doctors sure have.
