This is what has been happening in my nursing class.
At the end of each class, he says something to the effect of "God bless you."
There are nine of us in the class. Some of them respond in kind, some of us (myself included) say nothing as we leave for the day.
Today, he brought up god between lecturing on nursing. He asked us to raise our hands if we believed in God, I did not raise my hand, and some students did raise their hand. He discussed, though I could tell he was also trying to be humorous about it, how when he was younger he considered himself ugly. He said that he prayed to god to help him find love when he was older. He then brought up the fact that he is currently on his fourth marriage, having been divorced three times previously, and he said how this is the last marriage. He said, jokingly, that he should not have been praying for love and he is done praying for love if his fourth marriage fails because god gives him exactly what he wants.
My personal thoughts: first, as an instructor, he should not be personally bringing up god. It is unprofessional. Secondly, how "christian" can he truly be if he has been divorced three times? (This is the same instructor who I mentioned in my Random Thoughts thread as pinging on my gaydar.)
