A student at Florida Atlantic University has charged that his professor in intercultural communications class told the whole class to write the name JESUS in bold letters on a piece of paper, then drop the papers and stomp all over them.
The alleged incident happened three weeks ago on the Davie, Florida campus of FAU, according to WPEC-TV. (Scroll down for the video.)
Junior Ryan Rotela, a devout Mormon, is the student making the charge.
   Ads by Google   “Anytime you stomp on something it shows that you believe that something has no value,” he told the South Florida CBS affiliate. “So if you were to stomp on the word Jesus, it says that the word has no value.”
 
Some students stomped; others, including Rotela, didn’t. He said he told the instructor, Deandre Poole, that the assignment offended his religious convictions.
Two days later, the junior alleges, he went to an FAU school official to express his unease with the assignment.
 
The result? Rotela has been suspended from the class.
An FAU official defended the decision, telling WPEC that the Jesus-stomping was part of a classroom exercise from a textbook: “Intercultural Communication: A Contextual Approach, 5th Edition.”

Naw, that'd be  a hate crime! Might even make the moooselimbs irrate and they might burn some bibles in Afganistan. Can't be doin that! Nope!

"the jesus stomping was part of a classroom exercise from a textbook"


that's such a crazy outlandish moronic
thing to have students do, i'm about at
a loss on how to respond.
why would anyone have students
do such a thing? is the author of the
textbook a satanist? are they just an
atheist trying to prove a twisted point?
i can't comprehend what that kind of action
would prove or symbolize or show to anyone
with or without any faith or belief.
like the folks that poop on a plate and
call it modern art.

Book titles can be decieveing. Where is the description of his book? He may be making out that Obama is some kind of god in the book. And if it is a negative treatment of Obama it still doesnt mean he is not a liberal. I am sure more than a few liberals have managed to take the blinders off and see past the facade of Obama, and that he is just as worthless as any of our other self serving politicians.

LAKOTA. True Sir. He had to be a liberal because nobody with God in their lives would do such a thing. POWDERMAN.
