Breitbart reports that outspoken Obama supporter and rock musician Bruce Springsteen will be the subject of a theology class at Rutgers University. Yes, “theology.”
Known for teaching courses in early rabbinic literature, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Jewish mysticism and Plato, a professor at Rutgers University is now looking to the lyrics of Bruce Springsteen to enlighten first year students.
Azzan Yadin-Israel, an associate professor of Jewish studies and classics, will offer a Byrne Seminar, exploring the theological underpinnings of Springsteen’s lyrics, and the song writer’s reinterpretation of biblical stories…
How much does Rutgers cost per year to attend? For out-of-state students, the price tag is $39,101 for 2013-14.
$39,101 is a lot to pay for a Bruce Springsteen Bible class, wouldn’t you say?
