Kansas professor apologizes for e-mail

An AP story reports that, in a written apology, Paul Mirecki, chairman of the university's Religious Studies Department, said he would teach the planned class "as a serious academic subject and in an manner that respects all points of view."

In an email to associates and friends, his real thoughts and emotions on the subject came out.

Rep. Brenda Landwehr, vice chairwoman of the Kansas House Appropriations Committee, called the e-mail "venomous," adding, "He's not sorry he wrote it. He's sorry it became public."

So true.
