  • Something is very fishy here. I’ll go out on a limb and say this guy Reed tried to create a workplace “accident” to kill the other Reed. The reason might be Reed the arrested found out that Reed the deceased was having an affair with Reed’s wife the one with “no comment”. A small “accident designed to kill one person turned into a huge fire and huge explosion…… Like I said it’s a limb…..

  • (ISHKA4ME) Your observation and link was actually a good lead. Good catch and back history of possible OWS loons who have a MO and history of bomb making….. Good catch!

  • Where is the apology from the Professor? The school was part of the problem and should apologize but until the Prof does it we have accomplished nothing.

    I was considering your school as a possibility for one of my daughters but if this is the way a student is treated and their personal beliefs and morals are trampled on my your faculty I can assure you it is now off the list. Your school is starting to show its true colors by past and current actions and I think you will find when you hire faculty with liberal leaning ideals it will become a recipe for failure.

    Your statement regarding this incident was laughable. Not a single line was demonstrated in the incident. Nothing short of a public apology and the dismissal of this Professor will be acceptable from the general public once this story goes viral. America has been weakened but it still has a soul of freedom even on the left side and we will rise when challenged. You will see this to be true.

    Do the right thing and take a stand against religious intolerance no matter the religion. I would be just as upset if the name of Allah or Mohammad or Buddha or whatever was written on the paper. Where has common sense and decency gone?

    Sincerely confused,

  • 1) Where was the “OPEN DISCUSSION” in this situation. Open discussion relies on the ability to openly state a opinion or belief and for it to be truly open they can’t fear retribution for their opinion. If they fear retribution (suspended from class) how can it be an open discussion? It sounded to me like it was more on the lines of do this and like it or you will be punished.
    2) Topics discussed may be sensitive but to cross the line and ask a person to physically do or say something that is religiously offensive to their core beliefs crosses the line. Not only that it is illegal. I think you will find a lawsuit soon showing you error in your faculties ways. Currently in America you have religious freedom and personal rights which includes the right to not do certain things by force. It would then be illegal to force a citizen to do something against their religious beliefs or face retribution or punishment.
    3) The environment for such dialogue and debate- Where was the dialogue and debate? How can this subject be debated and a dialogue ensue if he is not in the class?
    4) This was not a discussion. This was a physical action going far beyond verbal discussion. With this being said sometimes even verbal “discussions” against someone’s religious beliefs can cross the line. An example would be to force a student to pray to a God they do not believe in or to a particular Prophet or Idol they don’t ascribe to.

  • Here is my email to the Dean of the college. Note it will be over several post due to character count limitations. I would suggest everyone email him.

    Dr. Bhattacharya,

    After reading several articles on the class suspension of Ryan Ratella and then reading your schools response I could not remain silent. This young man was asked to do something that any Christian who can call themselves Christian should have refused to do and should have also reported the incident to a higher authority. He did exactly what he should have done in this situation. To ask a Christian to step on their professed Saviors name is equal to asking a Christian student to pray in the name of Satan or to denounce their personal religious belief. Thinking further it would be equally offensive to ask an atheist to pray to a God they don’t believe in. How can any educated logical person not understand this basic principle?

    Your Schools response: ”Faculty and students at academic institutions pursue knowledge and engage in open discourse. While at times the topics discussed may be sensitive, a university environment is a venue for such dialogue and debate.”
    Let me ask you a few very simple questions about this response

  • This is a crock! The WWP website says nothing about “religious in nature”.

    It does state “please bear in mind WWP fundraisers cannot be sexual or political in nature and cannot be partnered with alcohol brands.”

    Now- it’s time to find out what the problem here is. I know I will be calling the closest office tomorrow in Nashville to voice my anger.

  • combine socialism and sex and you have=sexualism….. LOL You can’t make this stuff up!

  • But wait pot’s not addictive!

  • Might want to add Petraeus to the list now…LOL
