But, when you give money (or pledge money) to a school that states that it is promoting christian values or whatever, you have some expectations that this will not change. (There are enormous issues of standing, etc. that would keep you from suing to get money back -- this is an area of law that I know very well -- but I'm not talking about the technical legal issues but rather the ethical ones.)

It seems to me that part of the controversy, if that's what it is, stems from deep philosophical questions in the Episcopalian Church regarding what the "Christian values" are with regard to homosexual relationships.
