e Tweet Email Print Muslim Professor Forced To Resign For Controversial Comments

A controversial Muslim professor in Florida has resigned from her position.

In March, Areej Zufari, a humanities professor at Rollins College was confronted by one of her students after she said the crucifixion of Jesus Christ was a “hoax” and that Christ’s disciples did not believe he was God.

Sophomore Marshall Polston, 20, said that, as a Christian, the remarks were “unsettling.”

“It was very off-putting and flat out odd. I’ve traveled the Middle East, lectured at the Salahaddin University, and immersed myself in Muslim culture for many years,” Polston told the Central Florida Post. “Honestly, it reminded me of some of the more radical groups I researched when abroad.”

Good, very good. Glad the muslim was forced to resign. Don't need this kind of radical crap in our colleges and universities.

Oh the hypocrisy abounds. Christians rail on and bang on about Christian persecution, and how teachers are not allowed to speak their religious perspectives...

... and then when the religious speech isn't your preferred brand of crazy, you completely loose your minds.

This is a shining example of why there is an establishment clause and why only a secular government can protect religious freedom.

Islam is simply a cancer within a civilized society.

I would argue that religion is a cancer within a civilized society.
