Hey y'all!
This is the first post in the chapel chicks blog, and I'm excited to start our conversations off with a bang! I'm not the type to sugar coat things, and I tend to be very opinionated, so don't be offended if I sound harsh at times.
As a student at a Christian University, I want education that is presented in a godly way. I LOVE that professors open every class with prayer, and that they have the freedom to do so. I think it is wonderful that students are required to take Bible and Theology classes along with their major courses. In my opinion, every class should incorporate Christianity in some way. After all, we came to a christian University to learn from a christian point of view, not from people who do not old the same values we do. When it comes to the subject of science, I'm a little perturbed at how some schools are choosing to handle the subject. The theory of evolution is taught in christian schools. Should this be happening? I do not think it is honoring to God to be teaching a lie about his creation. If you believe that the world was created, not in six days as the Bible says, but that it happened over the course of billions of years, you are denying what the Bible says. If you choose to deny that part of the Bible, why not deny all of it? Why would I go to a school that doesn't teach how every subject (including science) fits into the Bible and Christianity? Isn't that what I'm paying for?
How do you feel about it? I'd love to hear your comments!

I totally agree! We can't walk around as DIVA Christian's if don't believe the whole Bible. I bet the professor teaching it didn't even have on good shoes!
ReplyDeleteInteresting thoughts CK, but, if you think about it how do you ever expect to have an intellegent conversation with those who believe in eveolution and other beliefs if you have never spent time to learn about them and understand them yourself! I think it is best to know about as much as possible! That way you can decide for yourself waht is right and what is wrong!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Kelly. I don't even want to hear another version of Creation! I just tune it out and pray for my teacher who is saying such awful things.
