Pray for W and Our Troops

"He was very, very angry about it," says Bannister, "[and] said that invoking God in class was unacceptable; that it was anti-intellectual, that it was belligerent, and [that] it was completely unacceptable in his classroom. And he actually docked us 10 points from our grade because I invoked God in my opinion of what could be done."

Liberals are so closed minded...

"They start teaching as they enter a doctoral program. Loosely called 'professor.'"

Like everything else, libs have reduced the standards needed to acheieve the rank of "Professor" such that the rank is now almost meaningless. BTW, Anyone interviewed by my department who had the audacity to call himself a professor and did not have a Ph.D. would be laughed out of the building. Perhaps because I do not work in academia.

In Italian!! You'd think you'd be just a bit free of the propaganda in Italian.

When the Fascistias fell in 45 the Communistas rose.

Springfield SSN 761 Commissioned - 09 Jan 1993
Boise SSN 764 Commissioned - 07 Nov 1992

Austin is ...., and served four years active duty (1990 - 1994) aboard the fast attack submarine U.S.S. Boise (SSN-761).

I recall a story about a National Guardsman in a Journalism class. The professor was an Atheist who stood in front of the class and tasked God to prove his existance by striking him down. He stood, eyes closed, arms in the air defying God. So the NG guy got up a drilled him in the nose knocking him down. He looked down at the professor and said; "God told me to do that".

Professor Austin Jackson, a Sunni Muslim,

...is a doctoral student in the African American and African Studies Program as well as a full-time professor at Michigan State University, is an open proponent of communism.

Talk about a paradox in his world view!

Last semester, my Sociology professor accused me of being a "cultural elitist" when I told him that American culture is the best culture in the world.

In the 21st Century, what exactly is "American Culture"?

He is co-author of several published articles on the use of Hip Hop and African American Rhetoric to enhance student literacy and stimulate transformative social action.

My parents cured me of transformative social action by the time I was five. All toddlers have a knack for transformative social action that must be corrected.

Sounds like he was a Ph.D. student there who has been given an adjunct or graduate teaching position there as a means of financial support. Apparently, he's not a regular member of the faculty (yet) and is pretty low on the administrative totem pole.

Check out the typo. Shouldn't that be Moron Literacy?/sarcasm

Unless you're speaking Bugs Bunny lingo - than "Maroon" would be quite appropriate.

...the professor was a Muslim, not an atheist.

I believe that "true" muslims, reading and following their plagarized and bastardized koran, are worshipping Mohammed.

They're first cousins to atheists.

First of all, another jewel in the crown for this young Christian student. Anytime one gets persecuted for following Christ, know that Christ is there and he's taking notes. I don't think I'd like to be that Prof when he's standing in fron of the Great "I AM" one day having to answer for all of this.

That is brilliant.

In the context of American civil liberties (to write, speak and publish freely) is tenure (a vestige of the Middle Ages where no one was free to do any of that stuff) not obsolete?

They need to eliminate the tenure system. If they got rid of all the professors like this guy, the cost of a college degree would be cut in half, and the quality would go up.

Yes they do, but I suspect this guy's just a teaching assistant.

Also, if this was a rhetoric paper, invoking God might not be the best persuasive strategy, depending on the audience the student was asked to write for/persuade. If someone told you reparations were right because Mohammed said so, you might not be persuaded.

A Communist Muslim enraged at the mention of God. Hmmmm. Would he do that in a Mulsim country?

He is a "doctoral student". He is not a professor of any variety. He is not tenured.
