Get a load of what the brainless students think of him. They give him an A+ rating.

I don’t think this “professor” is pitting “evil” Christianity over against atheism, more like pitting “evil” Christianity over against the eastern religions of southeast Asia.

The reason he is so against Christianity, is it is “objective.” Well, what does he think he is doing with his southeast Asia religions? He’s very objective about them, he holds them to be the truth, as opposed to Christianity.

Christianity - Evil.

Religion of Peace - Good

The school is in Winston Salem....brought there by RJR to be the DUKE of the Reynolds family Tobacco heirs - is a great school but is poorly lead from the top down . Too too bad...and way too expensive...has been taken over by the libs...a lot of the students have different views but they have to grin and bear it...no discussion allowed there!

"A Wake Forest University religion professor thinks it is not just illogical to believe in God, but also immoral.

Yeah... this morning I read an article that say a large percentage of millennials think the earth is flat.... That brings our, so called, collage professors into a whole new light....

I don’t believe he would today...you should hear some of his hate speech...boy does he HATE TRUMP! And they can’t even keep the toilets cleared and showers from overflowing nor did they have enough room for all of the rising sophomores to be able to pick one for the fall semester, but he can tell all the students in a public forum during orientation how stupid the new president is . That Hatch?

At WFU they are charging $&!,900 a year to play games...a bit high for games...unless it is poker.All of the profs with and without tenure are way over paid. At WFU don’t think some of them even even teach every year.

#6: "Isn’t Wake Forest a Baptist University?"

It's weird but Wake Forest is no longer in Wake Forest. They moved to Winston-Salem (100 miles away) years ago. Now the old Wake Forest campus is the home of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary which is a pretty conservative school. My former pastor taught there.

For the record, the town of Wake Forest is way nicer than Winston-Salem!

If there is no objective truth, I suppose there is nothing wrong in me taking a human life, say that of a religion professor, since it is only “objectively” wrong to do so, and the professor does not believe in such.

The Baptists severed ties decades ago with this lunatic fringe “school”.

He teaches yoga, too: https://www.sunriseyoga.net/upanishads-class-with-guest-instructor-jarrod-whitaker-phd/

Studied in socialist New Zealand. Maybe raised there? Curious about his upbringing, always relevant. No father? Strong Christian father? The mangina is strong in him.

Not all -
“or Buddhism 109 - I don’t understand how he got such good ratings, which, might I add, are a major reason I took this class. Granted, his tests and papers are easy and he’s an simple grader, but his lectures are unbearable. First, he reads all of it off a piece of paper. Also, he is NON NEGOTIABLE. Even if he admits he’s wrong, he refuses to change the grade. Moreover, he’s extremely opinionated, likes to cuss simply because it’s “cool” (often citing his former party boy days to get students to like him), and gets on a different soap-box rant every class. I can handle them sometimes, but he constantly insults America and usually goes over the line. For instance, he had the audacity and sheer ignorance to say that 9/11 was a government conspiracy and that America basically deserved it (basing all of this ludicrous argument off of Zizke). Furthermore, he often degrades Christian beliefs (I’m not even Christian and I got offended). If you try to argue these thoughts, he’ll shut you down in some illogical manner. Unless you hold the same views, don’t put yourself through this class. I think I have an ulcer from the constant frustration I experienced thanks to him. I know a lot of people in my class hold my idea of Whitaker, so just be warned.”

Not that I would ever do so, because I DO believe in objective truth.

Wake Forest should consider busting him out if they hope to attract the better new students in the fall. Keeping clowns like this guy around is a way to downgrade the standing of a school.

Without objective truth - nothing is true except what you bully people to believe. Which is exactly what this twit wants.

Boy is this “professor” in for a surprise when he finds out what Christ has to say about Christianity.

And He gets the last Word. Because He IS the Word.
