In my class called "Racial, Ethnic, and Social Diversity in Higher Education" or "Why white, straight people suck" or "Indoctrination to Leftist theology 101," we did a similar exercise regarding homosexuality. The professor asked questions and I realized very quickly what was going on. I refused to participate and stood in the middle. Another classmate (also a Christian) joined me in the mini-protest. We were the only two left in the starting positions. Everyone else had moved to the left at varying levels.
