The march of the politically correct – reshaping our language

Yet they sometimes appear not to live up to their own standards. One of its student clubs is called "City Front Ministries" which has its own website headed by a quotation from the King James Bible (Matthew 4:19", "And he said unto them, follow me and I will make you fishers of men". Only of men? Are women and everybody else who doesn't identify as a man excluded?

The university uses the King James Bible for its many Bible-based courses – "all truth ... has its source in God" – blithely ignoring the dreadful sexist, "non-inclusive" language that this Bible – translated between 1604 and 1611 – flagrantly and defiantly uses.

Presumably, according to this "Christ-centred university", this quote and millions of others in the King James Bible are simply inexcusable rubbish, "So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them." (Genesis 1:27)

I've got a quote for the brains trust at Bethel University and I'm sure they will recognise it – Luke 23:24 – "Father forgive them for they know not what they do."
