| Bible students are warned...you may find the crucifixion too upsetting! |
| 2017-01-08 |
| Theology students at University of Glasgow are given 'trigger warnings' Uni says it helps to protect the mental health of vulnerable students Tory, Liz Smith, said it was 'politically correct' and 'patently ridiculous' First question that popped into my mind: How does one get to be a bible student without knowing about the crucifixion? |

| #4 Probably not as upsetting as Jesus reportedly found it. |

| #3 Yup - there's a lot of bad ways to die (Tweaking copper thieves on live wires, anyone?). If your life and death actually means something, especially for protection and salvation of innocent family members or others, so much the better. Current Islamist martyrdom for self-satisfaction of Houris or 72 |

| #2 The resulting eternal "Salvation" is more than comforting to the Christian believer. |

| #1 I don't think its the crucification itself - but the whole entire idea of sacrificing oneself for someone else is so foreign to them. |
