There is actually a special college for home schooled evangelicals -

If they were all homeschooled by insane-right fundie parents, I’ll bet a significant number of them have been in a classroom with gays.

I was in the classroom with myself, so yes I was in a classroom with a gay student.

I don’t think the reporter is saying that Patrick Henry College excludes gays or blacks - he/she is asserting that no home-schooled students have ever been in a classroom with gays or blacks. Which may or may not be the case.

The school does sound incredibly white though. According to the linked New Yorker article there are only a dozen non-white students, none of whom are black. Though the school’s founder is quoted in the article as trying to recruit black students.

There’s at least one black guy on their basketball team.

He is no more claiming that they kneel to pictures of Ronald Reagan than he is claiming that the biology professor discusses the frolics of Jesus with dinosaurs or that Waterboarding Your Way to World Dominance 101 is a real class.

The author of the summary (DowncastDem) makes the following claim -

Students are taught to kneel before images of Jesus and Ronald Reagan;

The paragraph you quoted is not a summary of Coen’s article.

The author of the summary claims it it -

(Note: my translation from the Zeit piece)

I do read German. There is no such claim made in the article from Die Zeit. It appears that this DowncastDem person made it up.
