Seriously, is this stuff for real? Go to www.nobojo.com and let me know. Can anybody who attended this university chime in and let me know? If it is true, I can't think of a more sick and twisted version of Christianity than this. Terrible.

Al Franken's best seller "LIES: And the Lying Liars Who Tell Them
- A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right" has a chapter about this place. Interesting place.

I went to elementary school at a christian institution whose teachers *all* graduated from Bob Jones University. That was enough to put me off religion for nearly two decades. These are the most narrow-minded and bigoted of Christians, as extreme as you can get without actually advocating violence. My own experience was of a teaching staff in love with rules, not learning, and with more than a few of them harboring a real sadistic streak.

No matter how radical the school is, comparing it to islamic extremists is crazy, they're extremism says to win the world through love as christianity says and I have read the Koran and I will tell you what the diffrence is and it is a small word but it changes alot of things, in the bible it says God will send the people to hell who do not accept his free gift of Salvation, the point 'God will', now we go to islam and the Koran is says that 'WE will send the infidels to the flaming pit' and that 'we' in context there means Allah and the followers of the Koran there is so many major diffrences to say they are similar shows a complete lack of education

hi, in case you prefer to rather see some screwed up regulations, look at God's Bible college and school! No short sleeves on the two male or female. No rings different than a marriage ring. women can not cut back their hair, even on holiday. And, women ought to placed on sufficient coverings on their legs to "keep away from giving the impact that the legs are bare."!

Bob Jones University teaches evangelical Christianity at it's most radial. These type of people scare me. You talk about radical Islam. Well, this is your counterpart in Christianity.

bob jones university is a private university and whether you agree with them or not they have the right to teach what they want to which is ,in my opinion , the right thing to teach.
