Kaminer on Fundy's
by Panda inin this article wendy kaminer discussed that we live in a noisy and diverse culture where most ppl believe in freedom of conscience and a secular government.
that we have moral consequences for our choices and that morality is not based on religion, rather society ie., murder is wrong.

Who pays the tuition?
by Panda inhey, does anyone know who pays the tuition for law school at wts?
do they have a fund for college and law school?
i heard once that they did infact send one bethel bro to school but i have no evidence to back this up.. i wonder about this because with 17 lawyers they can't all have come into the borg after their education, or maybe i'm wrong and they were duped into dubdom.
