To those of you who have not heard, the famous Evangelical college associated with Rev. Billy Graham, Wheaton College, is in the midst of a crime scandal. Five of the school's football players have been accused of the hazing of a Freshman. The school claims that it investigated the reported hazing incident, but the question remains, what did they do to the five players? Were they dismissed from school? - no.... Were they dismissed from the football team? - no.... Now it is true that from a legal standpoint, we are all innocent until proven guilty in a court of law and make no mistake, it certainly looks like the Du Page County, IL State's Attorney is going to proceed with charges. However, if it turns out that the hazing incident did occur, then one has to ask just how could presumably Christian young men have done such to a fellow student? Perhaps even more important, if the men are found guilty, then we must ask ourselves how could a college that claims to be so committed to the cause of Christ have apparently done little, if anything, about this matter?
This news report reminds me of something that a late disabled friend once said to me. He claimed to have been raped by fellow guy in a Bible study group for singles that the three of us were in together. My friend said to me after telling me about his horrific story, "If someone tells you that they are a Christian, beware, for you could be in danger."
