the basis of universities...

Did you know that most private schools and most of the top schools in the US... (im refering to universities and such) were based on christian teaching? did you know that for nearly 100 years all these school heads were well learned in the christian faith and were trained pastors and ministers? did you know for that same span that a quarter of those trained at these major universities were trained in the faith to be evangelists, pastors, ministers, missionaries? just to name a few of these universities brown (the first baptist based university), princeton, harvard, yale... all these universities held an original charter that says that their role to play was for the spread and teaching of the word of God and the Lord jesus christ?

just a little something to think upon....

well the pplz who founded these colleges were the british colonists of america, rite? and these different christian groups like catholics and puritans and such fled britain to find religious freedom...so it makes sense that many of the oldest colleges were founded by christian leaders.
