There's a growing battle between conservative campus Christian groups at public colleges and gay students who try to join.
At state institutions funded by taxpayer money, should such
groups be able to exclude gays in defiance of their school's own
non-discrimination policies? I'd argue that the right to freely
associate is constrained when you dip into the government's till.
But then should gay groups be forced to admit anti-gay religious
conservatives who apply for membership (keeping in mind that the
same policies the ban sexual orientation discrimination also forbid
discrimination on the basis of religion)?
