Adventist Attempts to Infiltrate Jesuit School

[SivartM]

This is just rich:

Quote:

Dr. Thayne McCulloh is the new president at Gonzaga University, and he has a message for faculty and students at the Jesuit institution: “Watch out for Brian Mallow-Shanks.” Mallow- Shanks, from the New Hope Seventh-day Adventist Church in Chesterton Connecticut, was caught this week in an elaborate scheme to “infiltrate” Gonzaga.

A spokesperson for the university said that Mallow-Shanks had been planning for three years to seek a professorship in Gonzaga’s Culinary Arts program. There, according to a police report, Mallow-Shanks hoped to slowly begin to “convert students to vegetarianism and the principles laid forth in the ‘Spirit of Prophecy.’”

The would-be professor was arrested Friday for falsifying documents in his attempt to gain employment.

Had Mallow-Shanks been successful, it would have been the first time a Seventh-day Adventist successfully infiltrated a Jesuit university (if one does not count the late Samuele Bacchiocchi’s attendance at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome).

Mallow-Shanks has a master’s degree in dietetics from Loma Linda University and at one time had his own cooking show on the Hope Channel called “Broiling With Brian.”

Ain't that the truth

There have been others who have attended Jesuit Universities and made no attempt to hide their Adventist ties. I wish I could remember the name of the Pastor I met when I worked in Chile. I think that he was from Argentina. An interesting story he told was that one day as they were discussing something in a class, someone referred to him as "Father' and he said to the room full of priests, "I'm the only one who can legitimately be addressed as "Father'... A voice from the back of the room came softly, "That's what YOU think!".... nuff sed
