Jewells of Thought

We have Jewish students afraid for their safety on their campuses. Not just one campus but nearly a dozen of them. Since October 7th, the world tipped upside down for the Israeli’s. They were the ones violated and lost friends and loved ones yet the world instantly chose to side with the enemy Hamas and Palestinians.

My mind is still trying to wrap around how Americans are eating up the lies about Hamas and Palestinians. I went to a Baptist College; the word liberal in my University was having a Nun as one of my English Professors. A very true story. I had some wonderful Christian Professors at OCU and never heard any staffer out of line though, with our core values.

One of my first general classes was on Baptists Precepts with Dr. Barber, who eventually became President Barber where we found out we had the same birthday. He was one of my favorite professors and a good Christian man. One day two of my classmates I can’t remember their names she was engaged or already married I forget. Yet she and another one of our male classmates got into an argument over living together with you boyfriend or fiance whatever the term was in the situation the two people were not married was the idea.

She was working on becoming a missionary, but this guy was from Argentina, he was really cute. I do remember she got me in on this argument a bit and I did have to side with her. We were in full agreement to wait after we were married to live together not before. Obviously he was opposed to that idea, he didn’t know who he was talking to apparently. Both of us were taught well and held firm to our beliefs that we learned as children. Then once I showed my firm stance with her I was off back to my dorm. I don’t know what happened afterwards.

I do know she was married and a baby in those first couple of years of school I wonder if they still made it to the mission field. College was quite an experience for me as a young woman. My faith was never questioned or openly targeted, I enjoyed going to the chapel when I was able to on Wednesday’s. I still managed to come back to my home church for Sunday mornings with my parents. All of us in my family looked forward to going to college it was something special and meant something. Now everything feels different for college students and I pray it’s not that way for Christian campuses, but it’s hard for me to say being out of that loop.

American colleges and universities were created to teach diversity of thought, but to give knowledge not be a propaganda machine for young impressionable minds. Over the past months since October, Jewish and American Jewish students have been brutalized and blamed for essentially being alive. This not only goes against all of the Ivy Leagues code of conduct, but also of their Constitutional rights and freedoms. How is it protesters are being given more rights than those they are dismissing, humiliating and dehumanizing?

They have just as much right to finish their classes and their degrees as anyone else does. In fact more since these protesters are now officially going above the legal definition of protesting when it harms the side they are protesting whether or not they are right. The protesters are not simply students anymore non-students are slipping onto campuses and bringing foreign objects onto the campus property with intentions of hurting the other side. These lawless students and chaos agents need to be arrested instead of let go as some of them have been after making a big show of arresting them.

These protesters lack the brain cells to perceive facts. It doesn’t help that there are people specifically feeding this nonsense to them to encourage this very conduct though. There has to be a way to break the cycle of propaganda. Law enforcement I guess is the quickest way re-education is something the Left likes to say to the Right, but it’s true here as well. The Bible can quickly solve some of this by reading the Old Testament a history of this entire Middle East conflict’s beginnings.
