I agree with Mirecki. KU hasn't done enough to support him at all.

I agree with Mirecki that I, too, just want this to be over!

Is it just me, or is anyone else REALLY tired of seeing this guy make the front page on an all too regular basis? And what's up with the black eyes? They're the most symmetrical I've ever seen!

“At this point, I just want this to be over.” ok, just move to boulder or southerh calif. this guy is a legend in his own mind. another educated liberal twit, that thinks KU owes him a living due to his tenure. He is so in love with himself we should clone him and let them get married.

yeah, don't look like any black eye ever had, but it isn't a surprise to me when the university asked for a resignation. If you believe in a high power, it will prevail reguardless of this political bullshiste!

Those bruises look like they could come from the bottom of his glasses being smashed against his face.

hmmmm good point, enochville! But like the old cartoons say, "You'd never hit a guy with glasses!"

Not as tired as I am of ignorant, superstitious, fundamentalist BS making the headlines.

Unbelievable, this could have all been avoided had we left intelligent design where it belonged. In a book of fairy tales.

"hide behind the lawyer,boy does that say guilty"

I'll keep this in mind as half the Republican party lines up for court.

Just an interesting point. One of the methods they use in Emergency Departments to determine child abuse is by "staging" the bruising. Bruises of different ages appear different colors due to the process of breaking down the components of blood. The "bruises" on his face are definitely not from the same time as the one on his arm...the arm one is older. The face bruises are still a deep purple color, which indicates they are about 2-5 days old. The arm bruise is green and yellowing toward the edges. That is indicative of a bruse that is 7-10 days old. The alleged beating happened on the 5th and the picture was taken on the 9th. My math must not add up.

now were talking,,thats why the cops had him for five hours and he now has a lawyer,the math is two plus two isnt nine,he needs to shut up and go hide at this point and wait for the cops to come get him

Oh, you right wingers are going to have a field day on this board this morning.

It will be interesting to compare the comments here with those under the Altevogt article.

These ass***** believe their "right to free speech" includes lying and unsulting people. Someone needs to "take HIM to the mat...".

America has bigot shortage. They are so scarce, liberals have to create their own hate crimes.

Well, if it is a hoax, they'll unravel it [like they did Tawana Browley's one]. Till that time it would be more proper to refer to "allegations".

“The University penalized me and denied me my Constitutionally protected right to speak and express my mind,”

Seems like he's been perfectly free to speak his mind. He doesn't understand that there are consequences and responsibilities that go along with that.

This guy is typical gard left liberal.

Probably this "beating" was not how he says it was if it occurred at all.

He is still a hero to a significant subset of hardcore anti-Christians here at FR who pretend to be interested in evolution.

Google images of black eyes and compare. His look nothing like black eyes from an assault. Why isn't his face scarred, swollen, and bruised?

:^D The picture is funny, pointing his bruised arm at the camera. Aw, Wook at my widdow boo-boo! Jim Carey did a better job. (What was the name of that movie? Seems to me it rhymed with, "pants on fire...")

I'll take issue with the poster who's amazed at the symmetry of the black eyes... I've seen that kind of symmetry, before. On people with NOSE JOBS!

If a couple of nutballs beat the heck out of him, there should've been some trace evidence left behind. Like red wool fibers. Anyone heard if the cops found any?

Professor, despite what you might think, tenure does NOT give you the right to deny & denigrate the beliefs of others.

I predict that your little "hate crime" will be revealed as a hoax & that you are about to disappear into the dustbin.

I was going to post the same thing, except I have seen similar bruises on people who have had their nose broken. Funny, his nose looks fine to me.

The words "alleged beating by "Christians" a hoax?" do not appear in the title of the original article.

So when did this guy take off his glasses during the "fight"?

And look at those eyes. I have a hard time to believe both eyes would be like that in a one minute fight, especially if his nose didn't end up being broken. There was premeditated intelligent design in his injuries.

I have to say I'm sorta disappointed with the link the paper provided to Mirecki's email. It includes none of the more outrageous stuff; it's more trying to exculpiate him then show why people are so outraged.

Also, Note there's some good-cop/bad-cop going on with Mirecki and Hemenway. Hemenway was originally all "Tee-hee-hee, that Mirecki, he's a pisser!" Now he's closer to, "I'm outraged, outraged, I tell ya! Round up the ususal suspects!"

Don't let Hemenway get a pass on this! He's every bit the bit the screwball Mirecki is, and only changed his tune once people started wondering who on Earth would pick a raving, raging, anti-Christian bigot to lead a Religious Studies department.

In a sense, Hemenway is worse than Mirecki. Mirecki is just a stupid ball of hate handed power. (Would YOU turn down a departmental chair?) True evil is the one who would give a man like Mirecki power.
