HOW THE MIGHTY ARE FALLEN IN ORDER TO BECOME "POLITICALLY CORRECT." STUNNED IS THE FEELING OF ALL OF THE BJU ALUMNI THAT I HAVE PERSONALLY SPOKEN WITH SINCE THE MOMENTOUS INTERVIEW BY LARRY KING OF DR. BOB JONES III. MOST INDICATED THEIR DISMAY AT JONES RESPONSE WHEN ASKED BY KING IF HE HAD ANY BIBLE VERSE FOR THE PROSCRIPTION ON INTERRACIAL DATING. DR. JONES REPLIED...."NONE." I WONDER WHAT HIS FATHER AND GRANDFATHER WOULD HAVE SAID? I SUSPICION THAT BOTH WOULD HAVE GIVEN CHAPTER, SONG AND VERSE AS TO HOW THIS RULE WAS ARRIVED AT OVER SIXTY YEARS AGO. HOW ABOUT NEHEMIAH 13:22-31? DID NOT NEHEMIAH DEAL HARSHLY WITH MIXED RACE MARRIAGES? WHY SURE HE DID! C.I. SCOFIELD RECOGNIZED THIS IN 1909. IS THIS NOT JUST ONE OF SEVERAL VERSES IN THE WORD OF GOD WHERE INTERRACIAL MARRIAGE IS UNAPPROVED? SURE IT IS! THE GOD OF THE BIBLE IS A GOD OF "BOUNDS." WERE THIS NOT SO OUR ENTIRE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT WOULD BE A COMPLETE AND COLOSSAL MASS OF DISORGANIZATION WITHOUT SPECIE OR TYPE. IN EX 19:12 GOD SPOKE OF SETTING THE "BOUNDS." I BELIEVE THAT GOD HAS CLEARLY SET "BOUNDS" FOR HUMANS JUST AS HE HAS FOR OTHER SPECIES. WHY IS IT SO INCREDIBLE THAT HUMANS HAVE BOUNDS JUST AS LIONS AND TIGERS, BLUE BIRDS AND ROBINS? THIS COMMENT IS PROVIDED FOR THOUGHT, NOT ARGUMENTATION.
