Stomp On Jesus
 
http://news.yahoo.com/florida-atlant...054613656.html

So, the story about the Florida Atlantic University student who says he ended up suspended because he refused to stomp on a piece of paper bearing the word “JESUS” has really taken off nationally.

As The Daily Caller reported on Thursday morning, junior Ryan Rotela, a devout Mormon, says he was booted from class after he told an FAU school official that the Jesus-stomping assignment made him uncomfortable.

Glad they apologized for the professor, but she needs to apologize herself.

On Friday, reports Todd Starnes of Fox News, FAU issued an apology for Poole’s assignment. The public, taxpayer-funded school said it won’t be using the assignment again.

“We sincerely apologize for any offense this has caused,” the apology said. “Florida Atlantic University respects all religions and welcomes people of all faiths, backgrounds and beliefs.”

The prof. is a man. He is also a ranking member of the areas local Democratic leadership. I do not believe that this issue should be allwed to just fade away. I am convinced that we must apply more pressure until the man himself makes an apology, or is relieved of his responsibilities. I will be calling the college and calling the democratic leadership of his county and state. I recommend that e all do so, and encourage others to follow our example. What good is our liberty if it is never put to use?

Better yet, stomp on a PICTURE of Mohamed having sex with a donkey.

This story just really really burns me and this prof needs to be knocked down about 12 pegs.
