Bump. The most I've seen lately it seems in the world are the 'God is everywhere' professors. Our preacher today even preached on it. You can mention God, you can mention angels, Heaven, and anything whatsoever to do with God. People bring up the name of Buddha, Mohammed, and any other false way and you're A-OK. But mention the name of Jesus Christ, the only way to God, and be prepared for a flogging

Thanks for the post.

I have never once run into a prof who did any of these things.

Nicely done, good stories :)
My favorite part:
at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. :)

With a name like Shadrach, the author just needs to find Meshach and Abednigo (spelling speculative) to experience the fires first hand. Or something.

It's always a tough thing to get dragged in as a third party to such quarrels. We weren't there when these incidents happened, so we can't judge. The first professor sounds awful. It's right to object to his bullying, but some might say that the author and his pastor indulged in similar bullying with the second professor. Bullying is not an exclusive property of either atheists or the religious. And how to distinguish between bullying and putting serious questions to people?

As for the third professor, it can be hard to tell when someone who disagrees with you is scoffing. It may not be the case that the professor considered what the author thought and rejected it. The professor may just have been impatiently focusing on what he wanted to do, and not pausing to seriously think about what was on the author's mind. That's the sort of thing that happens everyday, and all of us have been on both ends of such misunderstandings.
