How many religious people would buy 'Skeptic' magazine?
How many Atheists would buy Catholic Review?
I'm sure I would find it interesting. I subscribe to a podcast devoted wholly to Creationism/Intelligent Design. I watch Benny Hinn when I can and listen to AFR radio quite often - especially their news. I thoroughly enjoy challenging my own deeply held viewpoints.
But perhaps that's just me.

We are talking about adults in a learning institution. I see absolutely no problem at all with that. College should be a place where your views - no matter what they are - are challenged and debated. I'd also be in favor of a professor sharing his religious viewpoints in his class for the same reasons.
In my world, there is no such thing as a subject that should not be discussed by adults. I am for free and open inquiry for all adults. How 'bout you?
Now, if we are talking about an instructor in a pubic school sharing his atheism with his underage students, that is an entirely different matter. I would have his head.
