I STAND WITH THIS ATHEIST For years I have followed the teaching of Dr. Peter Boghossian. Since the 1980’s, like Boghossian, I have invited people into my classrooms (including atheists) who believe something different than I do. Why? Because like Boghossian, I am trying to teach my students HOW TO THINK. Yesterday, Boghossian resigned his professorship at Portland State University. Here is his letter to the provost. I encourage all people – no matter your beliefs – to consider what will happen to higher education if we substitute the pursuit of ideas with the latest ideology.
Yes.
