A devout Christian thrown off a Sheffield University social work course after being accused of posting “derogatory” comments about homosexuals and bisexuals on a Facebook page has lost a High Court fight.
Felix Ngole, of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, was a second-year masters student at Sheffield when he shared a post in September 2015 saying “I stand with Kim Davis”, a reference to the Kentucky county clerk who was jailed for refusing to issue marriage licences to same-sex couples.
He also commented on the link quoting a bible verse from Leviticus calling homosexuality an “abomination”.
Ngole said he was lawfully expressing a traditional Christian view and complained that university bosses unfairly stopped him completing a postgraduate degree.
Deputy High Court judge Rowena Collins-Rice analysed rival claims at a trial in London earlier this month and ruled against Mr Ngole on Friday.
Mr Ngole said his rights to freedom of speech and thought, enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights, had been breached.
But lawyers representing the university argued that he showed “no insight” and said the decision to remove him from the course was fair and proportionate.
They said Mr Ngole had been studying for a professional qualification and said university bosses had to consider his “fitness to practise”.
Mr Ngole said he had argued that Mrs Davis's position was based on the “Biblical view of same-sex marriage as a sin”.
He said he was making a “genuine contribution” to an important public debate and said he was “entitled to express his religious views”.
University bosses said he had posted comments on a publicly accessible Facebook page that were “derogatory of gay men and bisexuals”.

His mistake was saying that he's Christian. If he were a Muslim this would be fine.
Caleb Evans
He should have just went and called himself a Muslim instead.
Nolan King
Fags won't stop till we're all dust.

Does this university have a history of expelling Muslims?

All he has to do is to find one person who is either atheist or non-Christian making similar marks and claim loss of future earnings from Sheffield Uni on the basis of unlawful discrimination on grounds of religious belief.

>It takes Christianity to turn an """"""""oppressed"""""""" group into the oppressor.
A North Hills man who stabbed his wife and shot his gay son has been sentenced to life in prison without chance of parole.
Seventy-one-year-old Shehadeh Khalil Issa was sentenced Thursday for last year’s attacks at his North Hills home.
Jurors convicted him last month of premeditated murder.
Amier Issa’s body was found outside the home. Officers investigating the body found outside the home later discovered Rabihah Issa’s body in a bathroom.
Prosecutors say Issa had a longtime gambling problem and needed cash. Authorities say he attacked his family because he wanted to sell the house despite his wife’s objections and because he had an extreme disgust of his son’s sexuality.
The defense argued that the son killed Issa’s wife and Issa shot him in self-defense.

*both* matter. Christian culture is what made the West great, but promoting mixing between people groups is degenerate. Every nation deserves to rule itself, and all ought to submit to Christ; in Christ there is no difference between us before God in terms of our eternal standing, but that doesn't destroy our very real physical and spiritual differences here on Earth any more than it destroys the difference between men and women.

Unbelievably stupid, he's basically been denied the education he paid for because he believes in the Bible. The prophecies are true- Christians are going to be persecuted in the last days.
And yes I know he's a negro but he seems cool.
Nolan Walker
Can you elaborate as to what you mean by posting that? I'm aware of the cultural change occurring in America, but that doesn't in any way invalidate my central claim that "all ought to submit to Christ". Christ is King over all nations, ultimately.

White evangelical Christians, the ones the most against gays, are in a steep decline in the United States. You can believe what you want, but you don't have an inherent right to impose your beliefs on others, especially if it causes them harm, solely due to your superstitions.

Religious belief should be classified as a psychological disorder as it is based on fantasy not fact. If somebody was ranting about what the non-visible green pixies on the streets were up to, they would be in a sanitarium, but call it "religion", and the government would give them tax breaks.

Genetic Evidence of Homosexuality:
H-Y Antigen and Homosexuality in Men
Blanchard, Klassen
1997
In men, sexual orientation correlates with the number of older brothers, each additional older brother increasing the odds of homosexuality by approximately 33%. It is hypothesized that this fraternal birth order effect reflects the progressive immunization of some mothers to Y-linked minor histocompatibility antigens (H-Y antigen) by each succeeding male fetus, and the concomitantly increasing effects of H-Y antibodies on the sexual differentiation of the brain in each succeeding male fetus. This hypothesis is consistent with a variety of evidence, including the apparent irrelevance of older sisters to the sexual orientation of later-born males, the probable involvement of H-Y antigen in the development of sex-typical traits, and the detrimental effects of immunization of female mice to H-Y antigen on the reproductive performance of subsequent male offspring.
-
The biology of sexual orientation has been studied in detail in several animal model systems. In the common fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the complete pathway of sexual differentiation of the brain and the behaviors it controls is well established in both males and females, providing a concise model of biologically controlled courtship.[26] In mammals, a group of geneticists at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology altered the sexual preferences of female mice by removing a single gene linked to reproductive behavior. Without the gene, the mice exhibited masculine sexual behavior and attraction toward urine of other female mice. Those mice who retained the gene fucose mutarotase (FucM) were attracted to male mice.
Human sexual preference is a sexually dimorphic trait with a substantial genetic component. Linkage of male sexual orientation to markers on the X chromosome has been reported in some families. Here, we measured X chromosome inactivation ratios in 97 mothers of homosexual men and 103 age-matched control women without gay sons. The number of women with extreme skewing of X-inactivation was significantly higher in mothers of gay men (13/97=13%) compared to controls (4/103=4%) and increased in mothers with two or more gay sons (10/44=23%). Our findings support a role for the X chromosome in regulating sexual orientation in a subgroup of gay men.
Extreme skewing of X chromosome inactivation in mothers of homosexual men
In the case of blood type and the Rh factor, however, interesting patterns emerged. Heterosexual males and females exhibited statistically identical frequencies of the A blood type, while gay men exhibited a relatively low inci- dence and lesbians had a relatively high incidence (p < .05). In the case of the Rh factor, unusually high proportions of homosexuals of both sexes were Rh- when compared to heterosexuals (p < .06). The findings suggest that a connec- tion may exist between sexual orientation and genes both on chromosome 9 (where blood type is determined) and on chromosome 1 (where the Rh factor is regulated).

Identical twins are not 100% identical due to differences in womb environment:
Mechanisms for differences in monozygous twins Paul Gringras, Wai Chen, 2001
doi:10.1016/S0378-3782(01)00171-2
Another issue is the recent finding that even monozygotic twins can be different and there is a mechanism which might account for monozygotic twins being discordant for homosexuality. Gringas and Chen (2001) describe a number of mechanisms which can lead to differences between monozygotic twins, the most relevant here being chorionicity and amniocity.[13] Dichorionic twins potentially have different hormonal environments because they receive maternal blood from separate placenta, and this could result in different levels of brain masculinisation. Monoamniotic twins share a hormonal environment, but can suffer from the 'twin to twin transfusion syndrome' in which one twin is "relatively stuffed with blood and the other exsanguinated"
-
Twin resemblance was moderate for the 3,826 studied monozygotic and dizygotic same-sex twin pairs. Biometric modeling revealed that, in men, genetic effects explained .34–.39 of the variance, the shared environment .00, and the individual-specific environment .61–.66 of the variance. Corresponding estimates among women were .18–.19 for genetic factors, .16–.17 for shared environmental, and 64–.66 for unique environmental factors

I don't think speech should be criminalized, let me be clear, but if your actions cause harm to another person because of their immutable sexuality, you don't have a right to harm people because your religious fantasies say so.

Sexual immorality is wicked. The government ought at very least to recognize natural law and punish things that go against it, including homosexuality and other sexual perversions.
Hunter Anderson
If people that agree with you harm other people, you are not responsible for their actions. If people are convinced by your words in public and believe that gay people should not have rights that is called democracy.
We can argue all day about whether democracy is even a good thing, but you cannot possibly sit there and defend the university. Unless I missed some important fact. Did he cause physical harm to someone directly?
Camden Sullivan
Lmao, how butthurt can you get? Nvm you're gay, so obviously quite a bit.
Also, if homosexuality is genetic then why can it not be passed down to ones offspring?

Law should abide by morality not logic. So if you had a choice between raping a kid and a dead woman, you'd pick causing long term mental damage to the child because having sex with something with no feelings, consciousness is illogical?
Anthony Smith
This is your fantasy that gay sex is automatically "wicked". You live in a secular country and we don't legislate by what theocrats consider "wicked".
I support full free speech. I think this was a poor decision because he didn't actually harm anyone with his behavior. That said I support public accommodation laws inclusive of sexuality.
It can be passed down. See graph and chaladze link above.
Eli Hernandez
Or Christianity is in decline, so people are more honest about their sexuality.
* In 2016, just over 1 million (2.0%) of the UK population aged 16 and over identified themselves as lesbian, gay or bisexual (LGB). * The population aged 16 to 24 were the age group most likely to identify as LGB in 2016 (4.1%).
>It can be passed down How can it be passed down if to make a child you require a man and a woman?
Do gays just concentrate their gayness on a puddle of semen to form a child?
Gabriel Barnes
Surrogacy and heterosexually created children can still have a higher hereditary rate of homosexuality when at least one parent is gay.
Why do you want gay people stuffed into unhappy straight marriages producing kids more likely to be gay?
C'mon I never claimed two men alone can make a baby, but to ignore reproductive assistance technology and the fact that historically and currently many gays have been pressured, by the same churches we are discussing here,, to marry the opposite sex and have kids, is retarded.

faggots and their lies one faggot on here posting fake studies supporting congenital faggotry. faggotry has never been linked to DNA and identical twin studies show it is a lifestyle choice. The bible says they will not go to heaven (unless the repent) so they will all burn like ... faggots.

I'm gay and an educator. I would not be happy about this. He deserves an education and his peers deserve to be exposed to him. They all need the experience. NOT because it will change their minds but because it will teach everyone to tolerate eachother with the views they have.
