After Kauffman filed the grievance, Brooker faced a lengthy session of questioning by an ethics committee, during which she was asked questions like: "Do you think gays and lesbians are sinners?" and "Do you think I'm a sinner?"

Reminds you of the Soviets doesn't it...

"The very first class I had with him, he introduced himself as Dr. Kauffman and [said] that he was a liberal professor - but to feel free to share any other opinions you might have," she recalled.

"The check's in the mail. You can trust me, I'm not like the others. I have a bridge to sell you," he continued.

Brooker said she opposes homosexual adoption because of her beliefs as a Methodist.

Obviously, not the kind of Methodist who runs the show in that denomination.

I'm glad I studied engineering, and then computer science, where the professors' personal opinions on a wide variety of subject were not something they generally shared with us or imposed on us. Many were probably conservative, some probably liberal, but it was not something that ever came up in class.

"because of her beliefs as a Methodist"

Good for her! As a member of the Methodist church myself, it is rare to see a member of our church actually take a public stand against homosexuality like this.

Yes, good thing for her she is able to ascribe to Wesley's doctrines and is not a member of the Eastern conferences.

The university said in a statement it had agreed to clear Brooker's record, pay her $9,000, and cover the costs of a two-year Masters degree course, plus living expenses, at any state university in Missouri.

Kool.

"It said Kauffman had voluntarily stepped down from his administrative duties as director of the Master of Social Work program. He would also not be teaching for the remainder of the semester."

Good. Let's hope other lib profs take this as official notice that we are going to fight back.

I had no idea what to political beliefs of my main grad school professor were until I ran into him many years later at the Boortz/Hannity get out the Republican vote road show in late 2004.

"Do you think gays and lesbians are sinners?" and "Do you think I'm a sinner?"

Yes, and heterosexuals are sinners. I'm a sinner too. You're a sinner. Evangelical preachers are sinners. Buddhist Monks are sinners. Ronald Reagan was a sinner, and Bill Clinton is a sinner. That's what Christianity teaches. Everybody sins, and Jesus paid the price for your sins. If you believe in Jesus, then you're as pure as the wind-driven snow in the eyes of the Lord.

And this a-hole professor would be the first to call Bush a "Nazi." Libs like him just don't see the irony of their own hypocrisy.

we wish Emily nothing but the best," John Black, general counsel at Missouri State University, said Friday. "Nobody here has anything but the best hopes for Emily ..."

Interesting he feels free to refer to her by her first name. Bet he doesn't call professors by their first name.

I wonder if they asked, "Are you now or have you ever been a Christian?"
