一名联邦法官裁定,明尼苏达州禁止宗教学院要求参加高中大学信贷方案需有信仰声明的禁令不符合宪法,支持宗教自由。 A federal judge has ruled that Minnesota's ban on religious colleges requiring faith statements for participation in a high school college credit program is unconstitutional, supporting religious freedom. 这项决定使两所保守的基督教学院受益,这些学院要求学生发表信仰声明,有可能排除非基督教学生和男女同性恋、双性恋和变性学生。 This decision benefits two conservative Christian colleges, which mandate statements of faith from students, potentially excluding non-Christian and LGBTQ+ students. 法官还宣布禁止学校以性别、性取向或宗教信仰为基础入学的不歧视规则无效。 The judge also invalidated a nondiscrimination rule that prohibited schools from basing admission on gender, sexual orientation, or religious beliefs.
