Full post examining Raymond Pert's college classroom philosophy here
Do I promote Christianity? Marxism? Feminism? Capitalism? The Resurrection? The idea that all things are connected? Godlessness? Science? Evolution? No. It's not my job to promote world views. It's my job to help students investigate them, and, more important, investigate themselves and their world views. Many times this means helping students see that they have world views. Many don't know that they have a world view. Many don't realize that reality looks different to someone who sees life coming from death in the world over and against someone who sees reality only in terms of the senses -- Raymond Pert/Kellogg Bloggin.
