Consider No Evil - Brandon G. Withrow

Even casual acquaintances of the Bible know that the Truth shall set you free, but in the pursuit of that Truth in higher education–particularly in Christian or Jewish seminaries–there are often many casualties suffered along the way. What happens when faculty and students at religious academies butt heads with senior staff or dare to question dogmas or sacred cows that the institution cherishes? Consider No Evil examines seminaries affiliated with two faith traditions–Christian and Jewish–and explores the challenges, as well as prospective solutions, confronting those religious academies when they grapple with staying true to their traditions, as they interpret them, while providing an arena that incubates honest and serious scholarship.
