Not that big of a deal, but I'm pretty offended at the moment. I've been a part of Junior Civitans, a community-service based club at my High School for a while now and am one of the most active members. Recently there has been this huge controversy (not so much to me, but to them it is) over my atheism. Some of the higher-ups are wanting me out because I peacefully choose to not participate in religious activities.
Now, I think what made this an even bigger deal lately is that my superior decided that it would be funny to appoint me the Head Chaplain. I luled with them for a while, then realized that some problems may occur. We've pretty much decided I can keep the title for scholarship purposes, but I don't have to lead religious activities because we have a diverse set of philosophies within our school.
One of my buddies decided to contact a guy over the matter, and they feel as though I shouldn't be part of the club because "the club is based on Christian morals and philosophies and has no room for other systems of belief."
As a note, this is NOT a religious discussion, it is a discussion of whether it is right to kick someone out of a group they put time into over their philosophical beliefs. Do not derail this thread.
