Abstract

The author discusses his reasons and instances for giving his theology students his own interpretation of literary and sacred texts. The argument that college teachers should not discuss their personal views in the classroom is to prevent students from being influenced and therefore not think critically but the author believes that students want someone with whom they can discuss multiple points of view.
