There's a reason people who go to Universisties are more sought after than people who go to technical school. A broad education tends to produce a better mind. There ought to be no feild of study off limits to a hungry mind.

I have no idea, despite having listened to O'Reilly hold forth, whether or not this particular class has any merit. But I'm not about to dismiss it out of hand.

I had a class in Human Sexuality about ten years ago. I didn't agree with the professor's values, and I didn't much like the explicit nature of some of the course materials, but I still learned some things I didn't know about the human body and mind.

That said, if the prof I had had endorsed or glorified pedophilia or homosexuality, I would have been furious and rightly so. On such topics, my professor stuck to the facts and did not air his personal opinions.

This article doesn't present any "facts" as I see them. I do not see his students among his accusors. Maybe he did what they said he did and maybe he didn't. Pedophilia, and promoting pedophilia, is the most horrible sexual crime there is, so I am very reluctant to join a witch hunt without proof. Does this man deserve these charges? If so, the article should have presented the facts. If not, someone is bearing false witness and I won't join in on that.
