This is sort of OT, but thought it was kinda funny and did go with the theme of the thread...

Christian fraternity sues University of Florida

http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/lo...d94e13&rss=794

A Christian fraternity alleging discrimination is taking the University of Florida to court.

Beta Upsilon Chi's lawsuit says the university refuses to recognize it as a registered student group.

According to the lawsuit filed in federal court in Gainesville, school officials told the group it can't be registered because only Christian men are eligible for membership.

The organization that governs the university's Greek system prohibits religious discrimination.

So it's not really a gothic group being discriminated against, its a Christian group. Funny thing is though, they are suing the school for discrimination. So the bottom line is they are a group that discriminates, and because they do, they are not allow to function on campus, so they are suing for discrimination.

Thats right, a group that wants the right to discriminate is suing the school for discriminating against them for not allowing them to discriminate.

Only in America.
