The Professor was trying to explain to the class about "God's plan" and the concept of freewill. (Which is a joke) He, of course, set up his argument so that any rational person cannot refute or disagree. . . why? because that's what they're good at and because they develop their OWN definition of freewill so that, wether you like it or not, you are a part of god's plan. The only freewill that you have comes from your inner wishes and desires but ultimately your still a pawn for God. So he then discusses Judas, the betrayer of Jesus and quotes the famous Jesus quote of "it would have been better for him had he not been born." He explains that Judas is still responsible and guilty for what he had done even though it was a part of god's plan because he still wanted to sell Jesus out. And that Peter could've easily betrayed him but Jesus had told Peter that he was praying for him.
I responded with:
For Christian doctrine to be still prominent today, Judas' betrayal is absolutely necessary, so why do Christians demonize him so much? Shouldn't he be made a hero, perhaps a saint? I mean hell, you could even say, "Well, it's Jesus' fault, he should've prayed for Judas as well." Which raises the question, "Why does Jesus have to 'pray' for something to begin with? If it's a part of God's plan then he should be happy with Judas!" Didn't a little angel come to him as a kid and warn him what was going to happen to him? Sorry, but according to your own bible story, your Jesus has no excuse to be angry.
All I got was a disgusted look in return.
I've lately been getting overlooked and ignored in class.

Someone (I think from here) posted a link to evilbible.
If you look at
God is impossible, there's a bit about "freewill". Oh, and further down looks at gods emotions and how he shouldn't be able to get angry as he knows what's going to happen. And it's part of his plan. And man is his creation so the perfect god fucked up.
It's all very interesting.

Ignore evilbible like the plague.

Better, ask him if Noah's grandsons married their sisters.

It was one of four classes that I have to take for a "foreign cultures credit". (American colleges make you take a bunch of shit classes that have nothing to do with your major). I figured I'd take this class as an easy A, the entertainment value, and the possibility of making the professor slip up.
