Thursday Night is Movie Night

Reminder--we're meeting in 104 Dunkle on Thursday to watch

Class Discussion and a Couple Reminders.....

Reminders--class is held in the library on the 7th.  Essay #2 is also due at that time.
I do want to say that, while I value and want your opinions shared in class, please think about others as you speak.  The classroom is not full of people who are exactly like you--while you do have a lot in common with each other, you don't know the other students' backgrounds.  Not everyone is Christian, not everyone was born in the U.S., not everyone shares your political views.  It IS possible to share your viewpoints tactfully while not compromising what you believe in.  If you have questions as to how to do this, ask me.  I'm not asking you to disregard what you believe in, but you do need to recognize you are a unique individual and are in a room with others who do not always share your background/lifestyle.

Religious Fundamentalism/Safe Sex Education

Any more thoughts on the readings covered on Thursday night?  Since we discussed them, and arguably, the WBC is one of the U.S.'s most "fundamentalist" religious sects, do they have a right to their religious freedom as well, even though they infringe upon the rights of others?  Whose rights are "more important?"
Also, as promised, a few links concerning the Westboro Baptist Church:

Also, any more thoughts on safe sex education/the Bryant reading?
