A professor at a Catholic university docked a student’s grade for repeatedly referring to God with masculine language — in contradiction to the Catholic church’s documents and the Bible.
The College Fix reported that Cecilia Gonzalez-Andrieu, a professor of theological studies at Loyola Marymount University, harshly graded a student’s paper for using “male-gendered language for God repeatedly.”
The student, whose identity was kept anonymous, said the grade was wrong and emailed Gonzalez-Andrieu, saying, “Your comment that I referred to God as a male, I should not have gotten any points off for that.”
“MULTIPLE times throughout the Bible God is referred to as a ‘he,’” the student wrote to the professor in an email obtained by the College Fix. “I feel targeted by your comment, as I was raised in the church with the belief that God is a male.” --->READ MORE HERE
A student at a private Christian college in California says she lost points on her final paper for referring to God as male.
The student, who has asked to remain anonymous, says she had to defend her choice to refer to God as a male so she could earn the points back.
According to The College Fix, in an email to the student, Loyola Marymount University theological studies professor Cecilia González-Andrieu said she docked points from the paper because the student used “male-gendered language for God.”
The student emailed her professor on Dec. 19 to ask about the docked points.
“Your comment that I referred to God as a male, I should not have gotten any points off for that,” the student asserted. “MULTIPLE times throughout the Bible God is referred to as a ‘he.’ I feel targeted by your comment, as I was raised in the church with the belief that God is a male.” --->READ MORE HERE
