What a difference in how people handle issues---------------I am reminded of a religion instructor in college who held diametrically opposite views on historical interpretations of the Bible to the students. The instructor had a 'scientific' explanation for everything in the Bible that was considered a miracle. The students were astounded with her instruction. There was hot debate in the classroom with no disruptions. Some students went to the administration-------the administration then moved her over to teaching a language course rather than Bible--------the next year. When students intimidate the teacher and students there is no question that the students should be removed from class by the administration and an appropriate process be used to decide the proper course of action. Why not hear the instructor read from the Koran? Why not have a class debate in proper fashion---------what happened to good manners? This is so fascinating----------------if a person cannot read from the Koran then how can you understand the Koran ?
