Chalking at Erskine

ARP Talk had a fine issue last year on the "Chalking" incident at Erskine. You remember - where students went out in droves to cry out for help and salvation from a school that suppressed their faith? Yea, that issue.

Well, that was not the whole story.

In truth, only a few students went to write about such things. Each student wrote a lot, but people who feel oppressed tend to write a lot. Actually, as a witness to the entire event, most of the comments were not asking for liberation from the tyranny of Erskine's administration and liberal professors. Many asked for freedom to live off campus. Or about making Erskine a wet campus. Or supporting evolution. Or about such-and-such class or professor being boring. & Etc.

Depending on your view, the comments were much better than described by Chuck Wilson, or much worse. Here are just a few of the pictures left out of ARP talk. Ironically, some of the pictures Rev. Wilson used in ARP Talk were actually photographed by an atheist at Erskine who took far more pictures than Wilson alluded to. Again, here are just a few:


I especially like that first picture. "Since when do we vote to break our own rules? What are we doing?" Haha! I have no idea what that student was referring to, but her words describe Synod's actions to a T! Thank goodness Synod is acting out of love for Erskine and in self-deprecation, or else Erskine would truly be in trouble!
