It is that time of year again. Back on campus, back to the books, and back to having a certain religious group pretend they care. I went to your services, I heard your outreach speeches, and all I can say is your eyes are empty and your compliments mean nothing. You pry on the lonely and emotional students in need. You lure them in with your words of praise. You manipulate their emotions and threaten damnation in hell for not following your ways. After they prove themselves and are established as one of your “leaders” they are under the worst judgement yet, where everything from clothing to style of music is something unworthy or to be shamed. If you make the smallest error in judgement according to their standards they banish and shun you like a sinful piece of garbage they should have never wasted their time on in the first place. Students of Halifax, don’t let them trick you. They will manipulate you, use you and then never think of you again. —Just another sinner

So…they are a church, then. Could have left it at that, op.
Catholics?
Sounds like islam…
Do they “like them young”?
Can’t be the ROP they always hand out a vial of acid (no, no not THAT acid) a burka and a bacon sarnie.
‘…threaten damnation in hell for not following your ways…’
At that point, I would be waltzing right out damnation’s door with a party whistle and a jaunty little derby.
When will you people realize that organized religion is evil?
*you people* racist^^
Really? Enough students actually go to church to warrant a chapel? You are university educated and you buy into that shit? What a bunch of rubes!!!!
“You are university educated and you buy into that shit?”
Our ” Leaders of the Future ” still haven’t rumbled to the fact that their jackassery will probably be recorded, instantaneously made available for public consumption and incur an inevitable backlash.
Besides, something tells me that all those third-world girls in headbags aren’t here to study the works of Christopher Hitchens.
Ivan, the Brits call them The Black Daleks
And Obama wants to help the folks in this quasi religion

Like the same people we “helped” in Libya

Talk about no win situations. The only real way to punish Assad is to remove him from power – hopefully dragged out of a sewer pipe with a Leatherman up his Khyber. Since nobody whose opinion counts(the American military and general public) wants to see American boots on the ground that involves loaning your air force to the rebels and either supporting a slightly less repugnant secular thug, or rolling the dice and hoping that Islamist thugs don’t wind up on top. Another diplomat being raped and butchered on Al Jazeera’s Funniest Home Videos is not likely to put Hilary back the White House.
And since the pack of limpdick, no-loads squalling about “American Imperialism” are the same cunts asking “Why doesn’t America Do Something” I’d say ignore this whole shitty mess. If it does boil over the borders, Israel can sort them out without raising a sweat.
As Peachey said in “The Man Who Would Be King” –
“They’re savages ‘ere, Danny. One and all. Let’s leave them to slaughtering babies and pissing on their neighbors.”
“If you make the smallest error in judgement according to their standards they banish and shun you like a sinful piece of garbage they should never have wasted their time on in the first place.” Just another sinner
Yes, that sounds like Philosophy 101.
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!
hopefully, it wasn’t this bunch on campus

Nah, Basil, I don’t think it’s Scientology in this case; damnation’s not their stick (though their RPF sounds as close to hell as it can get, from what I’ve read/heard.)
This may be the group you’re looking for: they’ve been around for a while, at least in one form or other. They’re usually around Dalhousie: they’ve not bothered with SMU or the Mount, usually; they’re too small and still too Catholic, I suspect.
