And why are you attaching "hatred" to disdain?
Because its still a dislike of them. I know many Christians and they are good people. We should be respectful to them.

Look up "Disdain" and then look up "contempt".
Report back later.
They have the right to practice their religion.
Yet another enlightened up on the cross persecuted, conservative, Christian blaming liberals and now Universities for their own problems/faults. Typical of the diseased brain consumed with echo chamber resonance. Cry baby pussies... Which is pretty much another word for conservatives these days.
I should change my choice of words BUT my whole point is why dont you support and defend them? They have the right to practice their religion.
I dont represent Christians.
Haha...No. Im not religious for one, but I have been through the college "education" system, much of which is simply indoctrination classes where you are a captive audience to a nutty Professor if you take any class that is not basic medical/math/reading/history etc.
I was there long enough to realize that many Professors [but not all] are failed hippies who still hate Christians since their mommy or daddy may have forced them to attend Church one time in their miserable lives. Yet many would never utter a bad word about Buddhism or Islam since those are other "cultures" and its how "they" do things in their countries [its ok to beat your wives in Islam etc, its just their culture etc]. Christians though...everything is bad. Everything.
I went through the college education system and I didn't experience any of that. I did get to experience Christians who constantly tried to convert me, go to Bible studies, go to church, etc. even after I told them I wasn't interested.

so because the idiot professor is a christian that its ok? is that what you are saying?

The amount of indoctrination that goes on is just stunning.
the OP should really read
Christian outraged that a Christian would want another Christian to stop on paper with Jesus on it.
I never said I was Christian and just because the professor is Christian doesn't excuse what he did. I dont care if he was Christian it was still wrong.
My Mistake I thought it was obvious with all the outrage threads you were Christian.
I don't think it was wrong, I am also fine with the guy refusing to do it.
This is alright if you feel the same way if he did it to the other religions. If your alright with it to other religions then were in agreement.
Yeah I woudl feel no difference regardless of the religion involved.
Professor had a right to move through his lesson plan, student had a right based on religious objection to not partake.
Like I said the only dispute here is what school administration did after the fact and why they did it.
Reports conflict on this
Finally were in agreement!
But why didn't the professor/textbook do it for other religions?
My hunch is the book was written and published by western company to service western eduction. of which jesus is a much bigger cultural symbol than another religious deity.
I do think if Mohammed was the biggest cultural influence in the US for example the book used to teach would have used him.
This is a case of the popularity of Jesus being the factor.
Do you really believe that? Most likely it was some anti-Christian at the company who had it published or some other idiotic PC groups pressured for that to be included. And the reason they didn't do it to Islam is because they are too scared.
I disagree, I think if your writing a lesson plan with the goal of causing someone to question cultural symbolism you do it with the content most likely to get the desired result.
Based on all the nutty outrage I think they selected perfectly.
