Knowing Trent’s other positions on many issues, I suspect his original comment occurred before he had read the article itself. Otherwise it doesn’t really fit with what I’ve read by him elsewhere.

Nice try. No dice.

Blair already did it for me.

Let’s see you put your money where your mouth is. If you have any credibility, then you should argue the opposite position yourself on this issue.

Trent,

I would love to see your comments arguing instead why this teacher is wrong and should be fired for abusing her postion, forpushing her personal political idealogy, for abusing her power as a teacher and intimidating the student who place their academic grades in her hands.

Put up or shut up.

Thank you.

“I don’t see the problem here”

“. . . ordered her students to wear ribbons in support of gay rights and said those who supported the traditional definition of marriage are just “uneducated bigots” who “attack homosexuals with hate,”

“If I were the teacher I’d require the students who support the position to argue the opposite and vise versa.”

“The students were also barred from defending or explaining any other views regarding homosexual conduct, . . ”

“When students objected to how she was pushing her personal views on the class, she explained that it is her job ‘to educate the ignorant and uneducated elements of society,’ that oppose this movement’s demands and to correct their ‘hateful and close-minded’ views”

If you can’t argue someone else’s position, or even understand it, then you can’t argue and deserve a failing grade.
