Think Outside the Box Seems to me these reactions are a little like what one would see if a noted conservative Republican were named chair of the School of Political Science at the U of M.

You know, concern that the views of Dems will be taught from a Republican point of view.

But I doubt that after 22 years the faculty at St. Olaf's has this concern about the professor. Plenty of history there to address the concerns.

who pickets funerals?? it isnt so much as one religion being better than an other..it is whether a religion is based on truth (the Bible)…or is a cult…..whether one will get you saved…or not….

Na na na na na na, my religion is better than your religion! I'm always amazed at how religions, which are based purely on faith in the supernatural, get into these little pissing matches over whose religion is better. That's like debating which Grimm's Fairy Tale is more believable.

oh please like Lutherans are real Christians anyway. They don't even handle snakes or picket funerals.

Call it zealosy Clearly, Mr. Wright and others are religious zealots who would rather see all white, Christian America.

Professor Anantanand Rambachan is an authority in his field and his promotion at St. Olaf should be celebrated.
