says Sprinkle barred because of trust
The
regional minister of the Disciples of Christ responded
to a Brite official’s accusation that he was barred
from interviewing ministerial candidates because he is
gay.

A
letter from the Disciples of Christ regional minister
says the Brite Divinity School representative who alleges
he was discriminated against because he’s gay was
asked not to participate in interviews because of a lack
of trust and respect.
Stephen Sprinkle, Brite’s director of field education,
said he was barred from interviewing ordination candidates
from Jan. 12-14. Regional minister Robert Rueter said
in a letter that Sprinkle was asked not to participate
in interviews because of a petition Sprinkle filed in
the 48th Judicial District Court in October. |

We
need a Joker to our Batman
Feb. 19 , 2004
In
the world of black and white photography, it is considered
best to avoid the perfect whites and darkest blacks. It
is the grays that give depth, the grays that tell the
story and shade the object. In life, however, these grays
are what take away our depth and blend us together into
a finger-painted collage of something quite ordinary. |
