A call for deliberation...
Isn't any reaction premature before a connection has really been established between the anti-Biblical statement and the firing?
We don't know anything about Bitterman or the truth of his claims. We have only his side of the story. He might be telling things exactly as they are, or he could be an idiot grasping for reasons that aren't his fault for why he was fired.
If you examine the school's website (http://www.swcc.cc.ia.us/) there's no hint of Christian fundamentalism, or religion of any kind. It has more vocational curriculums than anything else.
I don't think the "second college in Osceola" is actually another college. Southwestern Community College has three campuses, and one is in Osceola.
