That’s why we must continue to support godly men and women who have dedicated their lives to Christian principles and to continuing those ideas in our offspring. Professors’ worldviews influence whatever they teach, from humanities to basic sciences, and what they think about God cannot be hidden from their students. James C. Dobson
About This Quote

While students today are more or less allowed to express their faith, there is still a strong fear of receiving a bad grade for doing so. The fear is always in the back of an atheist’s mind when standing before the professor. It makes him feel like he will be given a low grade and his faith will be ridiculed. This quote shows that it is okay to support godly men and women and the ideas that they bring with them into our schools.

The professor does not have to hide his beliefs from his students and we do not have to hide our faith from them. We can support one another and continue the ideas of godly men and women no matter what they believe.
