Do you know any Religious folks who refuse to enroll in a University?

Yes.  I was once told by a friend of the family that they teach "witchcraft" in Universities and they would NEVER pay for their child to attend such a school.

No, in fact most are Christian or Agnostics.  Many, like my last boyfriend, are very devout and never miss church.

well, not all the time. I had a cousin on my mothers side that worked for a state college in Virgina. She had some connections and was pushing the admissions office to let me in. my sat's were low so they said i had to take them again. I had already took them twice and a few practice ones. I never took them again and ended up going to a better college somewhere else. But the her college never rejected or admitted me. they just wanted me to redo the sat's. so she helped me but it was not a sure yes.

Check with the college you wish to attend. Sometimes they have early admission sometimes they don't.

I used to hide or open the door and immediately say that I was not interested.  Then I was fortunate enough to work with a girl that was a Jehovah.  She was so honest and truly lived my her religion.  She was not at all a hypocrite as some Mormons, Christians and Catholics I have know.  You know treat people badly, tell lies and get drunk, judge others and it is all okay just because you go to church on Sunday.  I never converted but I was truly fascinated by the religion.  How many other religions do you know that have faith so strong they spend hours and hours going door to door to tell everyone about it, despite being treated rudely by so many?  If you are reading this, it is for you Paula my friend!

I graduated from BC in 2002.  Most people are from Massachusetts or the Northeast, but there are more Californians than you might think.  I wasn't really Catholic, and I learned to ignore the Catholic/spiritual aspect on campus...religiousness isn't mandatory...but if you are Catholic, then you'll certainly fit right in...lots of potential social activities organized around religion at BC.  Relatively speaking, there aren't very many minorities (I'm Asian, too) -- and not very many Asian cliques, I don't think.  Maybe there are Asian cliques within the science departments (to be cliche), but certainly not in the humanities.

They have to at least pretend so that they can eventually get tenure.  No university wants someone that doesn't know at least most of the subject.  I like the ones that admit they dont' know something.

I had a child out of wedlock.  I can tell you that some Catholic priests would not baptize my daughter for precisely that reason.  That's one of the reasons I went to one of the Protestant churches.  I asked for and received forgiveness, and it was never considered something my daughter needed forgiveness for.  She has since been baptized.  Neither of us are going to hell for it, at least not according to our church :)

Check with college students (put this question in the "Educational" heading)\n\nI work for a major University and we have a professor that teaches a Critical Thinking course. They harrass and fail Christians with the statement "You need to drop this class now.  There is no way you can pass a class in Critical Thinking if you are a closed minded Religious Zealot!"

I'm not going to vote for anyone who wants to put religion into government. That's about it for me...\n\nI am a Thervada Buddhist

I agree many people fear rejection by their parents and family and community and play along so as not to cause "trouble".  As someone who has questioned the beliefs I can say they are certainly correct.  Athiests are HATED by Christians.  Many even will go as far as to not let their kids come to your house or even worse, they try to convince your kids that their parents are going to hell!  \n\nNice, huh?\n\nI dare anyone, for one week, tell people you are an athiest and watch how fast the christians start to persecute you, not online in opinion forums, but in your town, in your schools, and in your nieghborhood.  It is truly shocking how intolerant they are of people who simply don't believe in their stories and mythology.  Their hatred is palpable.

Yes, I work at a large university hospital, an the policy is to respect the religion of others. Even if you do not have a religious objection to something, you still can refuse on moral issues. This should be brought up with the head nurse, or superior, and other arrangements should be made. If you are being pressured by your superiors, you need to go to your Human Resources dept.

Wow, it is difficult to believe my eyes, but quite a few people actually took you, YOU, seriously.  \n\nHey, didn't you see the Posted Sign at the church:  We have the right to Refuse Service to anyone.

Yes I do. The majority of these people do not understand the office of the Pope and I sadly think they do not want to understand. They think nothing about God appointing Moses and Joshua and so on down the line but anything Catholic they automatically reject to their peril.
