Lipscomb Academy Silences Students Honoring Assassinated Icon Charlie Kirk – Twitchy

Lipscomb Academy is an allegedly Christian school in Nashville, Tennessee. After Charlie Kirk was murdered, some of the young men wanted to honor his memory by wearing shirts and ties. One would think a Christian school would encourage this. One would be wrong. 

So proud of the brave young men at Lipscomb Academy in Nashville who tried to honor Charlie Kirk’s life only to be silenced, reprimanded, and failed by the very school that should be shaping leaders of courage and conviction.

What on earth is going on at Lipscomb Academy in Nashville?! I have been inundated with texts and calls from parents and students connected to this supposedly Christian high school in Nashville (which is run by Lipscomb University).

On the day after Charlie’s assassination, a… https://t.co/wRdboGWJxU pic.twitter.com/YtPXvKqaI6

It’s very hard to understand why Charlie Kirk would be ‘off limits’ in a Christian school. 

Seems every school has been infiltrated by demonic spirits. Person in charge of hiring and firing is scared to rock the boat? What ever happened to what is right and what is wrong? https://t.co/Klnc9zWazT

It’s terrifying. 

Again. The looney leftist are trashing anything that stands as morals, compassion or comradery.
Anything good, they tear down and make our children feel as though they are terrible people for having feelings. They commend them for doing wrong and tear them apart for doing good. https://t.co/WFtacF3yyz

These young men were trying to honor a man who made a huge impact on their walks as Christians and Americans. It’s ridiculous for a school to dissuade them like this.

Welp …

The school created a new position, which deals “directly with faculty,” for the person who originally made the decision https://t.co/b9Nu2gQcxX

Wonder if they sent anything out like they did with Floyd.https://t.co/XiHi1HwIeC

Of course they didn’t. 

The sad reality is that a large percentage of “religious “ schools are religious in name only and for the purpose of fundraising. Many of these faith based schools have strayed from doctrine. In particular the NAIS schools are grossly woke.

They have followed the lead of many churches in America.

Also note that Lipscomb is the sister University to Pepperdine in Malibu. They’re both operated by the Church of Christ. Pepperdine was brought back from the brink recently but sounds like Lipscomb was taken over by woke radicals while no one was paying attention.

I graduated from Lipscomb rival, Belmont University. It’s so sad to see how far these schools have fallen from their Christian values. Kudos to these students for trying to pay tribute to Charlie. Their administrators should take notes.

The Administrators should apologize to these hurting kids and learn some how to read the room.
