Curtis: Even this notion that a board of trustee, i is obligated to the perpetuation of the corporation is a distortion of actually true corporate theory. He says yale law school has been engaged in what you might call some really toxic treatment of students. And if you're a conservative on line, you're probably pretty aware of what yale's done,. he writes. " liberty in the academic world is far less powerful then yale isn't the academic world"

In the inaugural episode of the Good Faith Podcast, David French and his theological wingman Curtis Chang discuss some of the recent issues at Liberty University and how Christians should think about the concept of institutional sin. Curtis makes the theological case for how human institutions fit into the biblical narrative and that as such, they are both made in the image of God and also capable of sin and brokenness. They also discuss why it is important for Christians to place a high priority on being honest and open about institutional sin in our own ranks, amongst our own institutions.
