All of that's very positive. I'm glad the pastors are doing their job. But that's not the job of higher education. The role of education is to stretch the boundaries of what community means. It is to introduce another dimension or dimensions or alternatives.
Life becomes richer.
But as soon as you have more alternatives it also becomes less comfortable. You create those questions, but then you begin to model how people live with those and also deal with the fact that some pat answers are no longer so straightforward. That's the role of education. The role of the Adventist university should be a shifting gaze, if you will. You shift your eyes from looking inward to looking outward.
