Summary

A Christian former professor who almost got fired for ostensibly creating a "suicidal environment" for LGBT students in the classroom is now running an organization dedicated to helping college students maintain their faith in a hostile environment. "We've moved beyond, in this country and especially at universities, free speech," Corey Miller, president and CEO of Ratio Christi, told The Daily Signal in an interview last week at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention in Orlando. "This is talking about free thought, cognitive liberty, and if you even think the wrong things, if your organization or individual members in the organization think the wrong things apart from the Gestapo viewpoint, the politically correct viewpoint, then you could be targeted."
