DENVER (AP) - A Christian university said Wednesday that it is appealing a
federal court decision denying state aid to its students.
Lakewood-based Colorado Christian University said the May 18 ruling by U.S.
District Judge Marcia Krieger against the school in its lawsuit against the
Colorado Commission on Higher Education is "blatant religious
discrimination" and violates the U.S. Constitution.
"We believe that the state is violating the First and Fourteenth Amendments
by penalizing students who choose to attend a faith-centered liberal arts
university," said Bill Armstrong, the school's president and a former U.S.
representative and senator from Colorado.

take their meaning from social as well as textual contexts, which is why "a

That philosophy 'snipit' helped to get me, and my crew, through a good
many combat missions and far too many scary, inflight, emergencies.
It has also played a significant role in helping me to expose the
plethora of radical Christian propaganda and lies that we find at
almost every media turn.
