I am Christ as he was. He is not important; his way is important," Bobby answered. "Tell us about the way," another Evangel in the crowd asked. "Love is the way; hate is not the way. "Kindness is the way. Humility is the way. Beauty is the way. "Pride is not the way. Arrogance is not the way. Boasting is not the way. "Giving is the way. Taking is not the way. "Follow the way and it will lead you to God. Jesus is the way. "The way is in each of you. You are your own master and savior. ↗

The academic bias against subjectivity not only forces our students to write poorly ("It is believed...," instead of, "I believe..."), it deforms their thinking about themselves and their world. In a single stroke, we delude our students into believing that bad prose turns opinions into facts and we alienate them from their own inner lives. ↗

Before I started (college), that's the advice my dad gave me. He said to pick classes based on the teacher whenever you can, not the subject...his point was that good teachers are priceless. They inspire you, they entertain you, and you end up learning a ton even when you don't know it. ↗
