Fail an atheist because they won't sit and listen to a lecture from a christian? Can anyone say lawsuit?
Jennifer,
When that atheist registered for this class -- he knew it was a World Religion class. And, as such, would discuss all world religions as well as Christianity. So, no, he would have no justification for skipping classes when it did not fit his beliefs, his religion. World Religion means ALL religions as well as Christianity. If he did not want to hear about Christianity, he should not have registered for the class.
And, as I did for my daughter, that man had the opportunity to bring in his atheist priest to speak to the class and give him extra credit. Why did he not do this if he believed so strongly in atheism?
Bowman, you asked if the atheist in this Religion Forum are typical of all atheists. Some are, some are not. Many of our atheist Friends are here to share their beliefs. Others are here just to find a convenient place to argue. I will leave it to you to figure out who is who.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
