Maintaining a Godly Perspective in the Classroom

How can one maintain a Godly perspective in the classroom? Watch Ravi Zacharias answer this question and explore other ideas (Why isn't there freedom to have a counter perspective? How can we preserver that which is sacred?) in this week's video recorded at Penn State University.

Your comment is typical of today's atheist/sceptic. You just call Christians "stupid" or "Raving idiots" without any rational argument to support it. You push for "tolerance" but you yourself are intolerant. When a Christian says that something is morally wrong, you call it "hate speech", and when you say something hateful, you call it "free speech".

What a tragedy our colleges and universities have become! Havard University began on Christian principles. Even the original cornerstone still has God's name inscribed on it! But you try and talk about God or Christianity there today and you'll be kicked out!

And what kind of English/writing classes are they giving these days? How to write porno novels? How's that intellectual?

@StarRonKid uh oh religitard alert

[StarRonKid]

@kickmeout1 to say the term imaginary friends... is to say that God is made up. would you mind telling us the origin of where God came from? humans have always had this idea of GOd. if you are to come upon such ideas with skepticism of this level then i doubt you would find any reason legitimate. If God does exist in respect to your pre-drawn conclusions, God who created the universe, then the meaning of life is not subjective among us. but Objective and we are to follow. one way or another.

To all Christians: Pray much before beginning your school day. Mr. Zacarias really helped me with that point.

It is still history. Evolutionary history, in fact. Isn't that so?

Atheists today are the most ignorant people our planet has ever witnessed. You're so mentally unstable that you actually attribute history to a god when you claim one doesn't exist. If your brain regains functionality for just a moment you might want to consider the fact that, even by your own logic, history is still the product of natural causes making it a legitimate disposition.

Put simply. You're retarded, in other words.

[kickmeout1]

it is horrifying to me that this video is getting positive feedback. religion should be kept at home, why do school kids need to learn about the useless imaginary friends that theists waste their time on? honestly, name one legitimate reason.

@navBUDDa I want to quote this but I want you to get credit do you mind if i have your name!!!! I am a strong christian and am always looking for good quotes but I dont want to take the credit for myself. So if you wanna message me that would be awesome. Or i can just use your username for the citation. This is a brilliant quote!!

Soon, very soon, Christians who have a testimony and faith in Jesus Christ and hold tight to His teaching will be persicuted world wide. Even now, in most other countrys they are. America freedom has been taken advantage of and most have turned their back on God and deny He is who He is.

Being in a secular college myself, I've made it a point of putting a Christian perspective in every paper I've written. I've always enjoy writing and always wanted to be an author so I've always written well, so even with all of that, I still get compliments on my papers from my professors. I think it's because I don't ram my religion down their throats, but I'm not afraid to talk about it. I've found that it strengthens my faith and is like my own mission field to my professors. :)

Morality isn't exclusive to Christians by all means. The point Ravi and all others like him try to make is that morality needs objectivity. Atheism offers a relativistic morality and thereby everything is moral. Yet you and I both will agree that somethings are innately good and and others are innately bad. A moral law giver, God, makes that distinction.

@SimplySincerity

Please refrain from using strawman fallacies and appeals to tradition. Also, I hope you understand that morality is not exclusive to Christians. To assume otherwise is to misrepresent those with contrary perspectives. Atheism is unrelated to separation of church and state, as well as morality.

It is only being skeptical of the extraordinary claims theism makes. (The same way I presume you are skeptical of the Zeus or Ra, we are both atheists in this respect)
