Liberty Univ. Under Fire for ‘Destructive’ Counseling, Winking at Sexual Immorality on Campus

Posted on by

Lynchburg, Virginia Liberty University is coming under fire following a recent essay released by a former student who shared his story of being a practicing homosexual on campus.

As previously reported, The Atlantic published an essay last week penned by former Liberty student Brandon Ambrosino, outlining his personal experience of life on campus after coming out as a homosexual.

When people find out I underwent therapy at Jerry Falwells Christian college, they assume I went through something like gay reparative therapy. But that isnt what happened, he wrote in the piece, entitled Being Gay at Jerry Falwells University. I saw two counselors at Liberty and neither of them ever expressed an interest in curing me. Did they have an agenda? Yes. Their goal, which they were very honest about, was to help me to like myself, and to find peace with the real Brandon.

Christian News Network contacted Ambrosino to obtain further clarification about his story, and while he advised that he was told by staff that homosexuality is a sin, he declined to comment about the approach of counselors in not seeking to cure him or change his lifestyle.

Another Side to the Story

Karen Swallow Prior

One of Ambrosinos former professors told Christian News Network that to her knowledge, Liberty University does not use reparative therapy as an approach.

As I understand it, this is not the form of counseling used by those at LU who counseled Brandon, stated English professor Karen Swallow Prior, who maintains a friendship with Ambrosino. Prior was the first to suggest that the student talk with a counselor on campus, and directed him to Dr. Kenneth Reeves, who Ambrosino outlined sought to help [him] to like [himself], and to find peace with the real Brandon.

When asked about her role and response in the matter, Prior explained that while she [u]ndoubtedly and repeatedly in love told Ambrosino that homosexuality is a sin, she is unsure whether a person who willfully lives a homosexual lifestyle will go to Heaven when they die.

I do not know, she replied. But I do know that I believe the words of Mark 3:28-30.

Fitch Affirms Liberty Mutual's Ratings; Outlook Revised to Stable

Posted on by

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Fitch Ratings has affirmed Liberty Mutual Group Inc.'s (LMG) Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'BBB'. Additionally, Fitch has affirmed LMG's insurance operating subsidiaries' (collectively referred to as Liberty Mutual) Insurer Financial Strength (IFS) ratings at 'A-'. The Rating Outlook is revised to Stable from Positive. (A full list of rating actions follows at the end of this release.)

KEY RATING DRIVERS

LMG's ratings are based on the company's established and sustainable positions in its chosen markets, benefits derived from the company's multiple distribution channels, adequate capitalization and financial performance.

The revision in the Rating Outlook represents a lack of progress in several key credit metrics including combined ratio, capitalization and reserve development since the Positive Outlook was established in December 2011. The potential improvements Fitch anticipated at that time have not materialized. In addition, the company's score on Fitch's capital model Prism is somewhat low for the current rating, at 'Adequate'.

LMG's consolidated GAAP combined ratio for 2012 was 104.7%, an improvement over the previous year's 107.4%, but higher than the prior three year average of 100.4%. The results for the most recent years were negatively impacted by above average catastrophe losses. Hurricane Sandy caused about $1.1 billion in gross losses and $866 million in net losses on a pre-tax basis accounting for 2.7 pp for full year 2012 combined ratio.

Over the past several years, the unfavorable margin in underwriting results between Liberty Mutual and those of its peers have reduced particularly on an accident year basis. However, Liberty Mutual's underwriting results still lag those of higher rated peers.

Fitch believes that LMG's capital position provides an adequate cushion against the operational and financial risks the company faces, but that metrics are weaker than most companies of its size and scale. In 2012, LMG's ratio of GAAP net written premium to adjusted shareholders equity was considerably higher than peers at 2.0x., an increase from 1.9x in 2011. A modest decline in adjusted shareholders equity in 2012 was driven by an increase in the pension liability, and several one-time charges related to debt extinguishment and restructuring charges offset by core operating earnings and realized investment gains.

As noted, Liberty Mutual's Prism score was 'Adequate' based on year-end 2011 financials and Fitch anticipates that full year 2012 results will remain in the 'Adequate' range. In particular, Liberty Mutual's Prism results are adversely impacted by quality of capital and higher operating and reserve leverage and helped by material unrealized capital gains in the bond portfolio. These gains are included in Fitch's base Prism score. Fitch notes that improvement under this measure of capital could be a catalyst for future positive rating pressure. A Prism score of 'Adequate' is viewed as a 'BBB' ratings standard.

LMG's financial leverage ratio at Dec. 31, 2012 was 28.9%, up from 26.6% at the prior year-end. Fitch notes that while earnings based interest coverage improved to 2.2x at year end 2012 up from prior years 1.3x; however, both results remain below Fitch's long term expectation of 5.0x.

NASCAR has the largest recycling program in sports, including a comprehensive effort that accounts for approximately 120,000 Goodyear tires recycled across NASCAR's top three national series each year. Liberty Tire Recycling will join other Official NASCAR Green partners, which comprise a comprehensive recycling program, including Coca-Cola, MillerCoors, Creative Recycling, Goodyear, Safety-Kleen, and Sprint.

"We look forward to enhancing NASCAR Green's best-in-class recycling program by keeping its discarded tires out of landfills and transforming them into smart, sustainable products that improve people's lives."

In conjunction with the NASCAR Green Clean Air Tree Planting Program? Delivered by UPS, an initiative that will neutralize the carbon emissions of all of the racing in NASCAR's three national series, Liberty Tire Recycling will provide GroundSmart Mulch?that will enhance the landscaping of trees that are donated to areas of need throughout the country. The rubber mulch lasts longer than its wood mulch counterpart and prevents soil from washing away. Additionally, Liberty Tire Recycling products, such as rubberized asphalt will be used to repave racetracks and parking lots at NASCAR Home Track racetracks across the country.

"Adding the nation's premier tire recycling company to our group of Official NASCAR Green Partners will further enhance NASCAR's position of leadership in sustainability across all sports," said Jim O'Connell, NASCAR chief sales officer. "Liberty Tire Recycling has positioned itself as a leader in tire recycling innovation and we are pleased to work towards a common goal of reducing the environmental impact of our sport."

Liberty Tire Recycling will join the NASCAR Fuel for Business Council, which brings together an exclusive group of more than 55 Official NASCAR Partners to get more out of their sponsorships, specifically bringing together partners four times a year to buy and sell products and services. This environment offers the unique opportunity for many Fortune 500 companies to bypass the time and layers of corporate coordination that may exist and construct customized deals to help address specific business needs.

Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (Liberty Star or the Company) (OTCQB: LBSR) is pleased to announce geophysical contractor Geotech Ltd.(Geotech) has proposed a money saving program of fixed wing aircraft (vs helicopter) borne ZTEM geophysical surveys over the Hay Mountain target and the Tombstone Super Project in Cochise County, Arizona.

Geotech geophysicists are currently adjusting flight lines and preparing a new bid for the ZTEM survey which the Company hopes to fly as soon as possible, possibly by the end of the month.

Other Hay Mountain news:

Comments CEO/Chief Geologist Jim Briscoe: While we would like to move even faster on our Hay Mountain project it is clear we are progressing toward drilling. ZTEM electromagnetic (EM) studies are essential to a modern, efficient drilling program in the porphyry copper-caldera setting and I believe the surveys will identify strong porphyry copper and associated metals targets. Should we obtain adequate funding, the process can continue quite soon.

About Hay Mountain, Southeast Arizona

The Hay Mountain block of theTombstone Super Project(Cochise County, Arizona) consists of 57 unpatented federal lode mining claims in addition to 15 Arizona State Mineral Exploration Permits (MEPs). MEPs are the first step in completing an Arizona State Land Mining Lease. The Company has completed the required assessment work to hold the MEPs. This land position covers a geologically, geophysically and geochemically indicated, completely covered, porphyry copper-moly-silver-gold, and rare earth elements mineral center. One major target within the Hay Mountain claim block is defined along with four other smaller targets. Liberty Star has recently discovered a large intrusion indicated by an aerially extensive low flight level magnetic survey under and partially exposed in and around the Tombstone caldera (NR 129). Mineralization is clearly associated with this intrusive body.
