Letter: Baylor alum expresses concern about her alma mater

As a Baylor alum, I have become concerned about the focus on racism and increasing acceptance of LGBTQ thought.

Racism has become a tool of the far left to divide America. Homosexuality is wrong and the sign of a declining culture, as posited by Edward Gibbon in History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. Gibbon was certainly not a Christian, but he was a recognized historian.

I am deeply disturbed by Baylor’s association with both issues. I never have thought Baylor was racist, and it cannot be associated with sexual decadence. If Baylor does, it will lose credibility with people we are trying to lead to Christ.
