First things first, you get way too defensive. So bring it down a couple of notches. Now about BJU, I've got no problem with someone who wants to go there if they don't feel like God has called them into the ministry. I don't believe that they are local church. I do not think that they are King James only. No standards.

Last year another church in the area had BJU come in for their youth conference and the preaching was as dead and dry as a doornail. [/I]

I think you are WAY too accusatory. That's the Devils job my friend. Neither of the items you mentioned are Fundamentals of the faith. BJU has for years stood as a solid institution for christian education. The fact that you are saying their not "fundamental" shows how little you really know about the matter.

BJU is ok with inter-racial marriage!!!!!

(I really am being facetious)

With me, it is never personal- NEVER.

Actually, the government did force them to change to that rule

Not true. Bob Jones has never forbidden any kind of interracial marriage. They used to forbid interracial dating, but unless I am mistaken (and I will readily admit it if proven otherwise) Bob III repealed that rule on his own, with no government mandate.

And speaking to an earlier post from Allabouthim, where does the Bible tell us that a college must be under control of a church, and where do you get your information that BJU has no standards? Also, when I was there, any scripture memorization for classes was to be from the King James Version. Even if that were not the case, there are other perfectly fine versions of the Bible beyond the KJV.

Furthermore, because a person does not like a certain style of preaching we don't automatically assume the preaching is dead.
