More evidence of the war on Christian students on America’s university campuses.
Students in one history class at Northern Arizona University have been told they can not read the Bible in the classroom before the start of the class.
Mark Holden, a 22-year-old history major, told Todd Starnes of Fox News that he was ordered to leave a lecture hall after his professor objected to him reading the Bible before the start of the class.
Listen to the conversation here:
Holden alleges that Professor Heather Martel ordered him to put away the Good Book around six minutes before a scheduled history class.
According to her biography, Professor Martel is a noted scholar who is working on an essay titled, “The Gender Amazon: Indigenous Female Masculinity in Early Modern European Representations of Contact.” She also teaches classes on Global Queer History and Feminist Theory.
When Holden declined to stop reading his Bible, the professor summoned Derek Heng, the chairman of the department. Holden recorded the conversation.
After asking Holden “why do you have your bible out anyway” Heng suggested the professor didn’t want other students to see it…she objected to Holden reading the bible in the front of the classroom.
The professor sent Holden an email warning him about his “disruptive behavior” and told him he needed to sit at a desk near the wall.
Arizona Congressional candidate Kevin Cavanaugh told Fox News, on college campuses, “If you are a Christian, you are being targeted,”
