Matt Bass encouraged to attend Emory theology program
Matt Bass, kicked out of Baylor University for being gay, has been invited to attend the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. Baylor, located in Waco (with a long "a," but we understand your confusion), Texas, told Bass he "interferes with Baylor's pursuit of its objective ... " and fails to comply "with historic Baptist commitments." After David Key, director of Candler's Baptist studies program, heard about Bass' situation, he sent Bass an e-mail suggesting he apply to Emory. Bass applied and was accepted but says he won't know if he can attend until he receives more information about financial aid.
