The second oldest college in America, William & Mary, has been told they should not expect an 'expected' $12 Million dollar donation.

The decision by the president of the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, whose chancellor is former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, to remove a donated brass cross from the historic Wren Chapel may be costing the school a cool $12 million, according to a new report.

It was last fall when WND revealed that university administrator Melissa Engimann circulated an e-mail noting that the cross in Wren Chapel was going to be placed in permanent storage to make the chapel "less of a faith-specific space."

The school president, Gene Nichol, said he'd gotten a complaint about the cross, and although he has admitted he handled the situation incorrectly, he still hasn't restored the cross, despite the nearly 17,000 signatures on a petition assembled seeking that.

Now a report in the Hampton Roads, Va., Daily Press suggested that's going to be a costly position to maintain.

A letter the newspaper obtained reported that former Board of Visitors member James W. McGlothlin wrote to another former board member Feb. 16 that Nichol's decision was "unbelievable."

"This has been so disturbing to me that I have decided to withhold any future contributions to the College," he wrote in the letter, which documented that a "very large contribution was in the making" before President Tim Sullivan retired from William and Mary.

McGlothlin, of Bristol, Va., is a longtime donor to the school, but it couldn't be confirmed immediately whether he is the donor who rescinded a $12 million pledge to the school because of the controversy.


It serves them right. After all, why continue to call it a 'chapel' if the intent in removing the cross was to make the space "Less space-specific"? Why is it the great Christian universities of early America have abandoned their original calling? How is it that Liberalism, promoted as enlightenment, has been allowed to darken the hearts and minds of millions of students... Students who most likely don't even know that their fine Ivy League University used to TEACH Christianity?

Don't bother, I know the answers...

Because it still LOOKS like a chapel.
Because America has largely abandoned God.
Because America fell asleep in class.

And what will the Liberal supporters of William & Mary probably resort to? Epithets...

Let's see, there's Wops, Spics, Krauts, Limeys, Frogs, Sand Apes, Niggers, Chinks, Kikes... to name but a few. Now we can likely add "Holier than Thous", or "Bible-thumping Jesus-jumpers". I'm sure the "HuffPo's" can come up with better.

Bigotry is a sickness of the soul. It does NOT have to be learned; it is as natural as breathing. Those who engage in it do not deserve $12M donations.



Chill, Dan... none of this is directed at you.
