I had a calling to write and just started writing. I had some issues arising at my job and this book was therapeutic for me to write. My purpose for writing this book was my way to prove to college students and parents that Religion is extremely important in Child Development and Education. It is right up there with Safety and Nutrition. Did you know that Religion/faith/Bible/God is talked about in various child development text books? I'm only bringing out topics that is already in our curriculum. I have found such an intolerance to anything Religious based amongst college students and often even the staff. Adjunct college professors don't have academic freedom. Academic Freedom is a professional right that protects teachers, students and academic institutions from interference when pursing knowledge. It allows scholars, researchers, and educators to engage in teaching and scholarship without fear of censorship or retribution. This includes the freedom to raise difficult subjects in a classroom discussion and publish a controversial research paper. I could see how academic freedom can be taken to far with religion and politics. That being said those that can't express their academic freedom will find legal means to do so-Hence the book I'm writing. In this book I discuss all the ways religion is brought up in the text book, how it relates to children, bible scriptures that go along with the topic, the history of Christianity in Colleges, and validity of the Bible.
