I personally don't know the difference, but the article I posted before says there is a difference in terms of academia...so technically saying he wasn't a professor isn't a lie, but one could say he was, and you really wouldn't be wrong either...what difference does it really make if he was a professor...it just makes me think that much less of him.

I'm going to go with the Universities direct statement on his status instead of a news outlet. The reason i even bothered stating that is because another user was stating fallacies about him that could be proven wrong.
What do you have against professors? You do realize that the computer your sitting on, the medicine you take, the surgeries you have and your life of comfort is all because of people that were involved in academia and the sciences. This stupid view that uneducated people know more about a subject than a scientist in the same field is the reason why our country is falling so far behind in education and science.
I hate people that try to play off their opinions as facts even though they don't know the first thing about the subject, a good example being evolution or economics.

It isn't necessarily their research I dislike to any degree whatsoever. After 1 1/2 years in college, I think what upsets me is that they (as everybody else in the world seems to) want to push their political agenda. So it isn't so much professors themselves as wishing there would be a way they could teach without pushing politics.

I get that it can be annoying but professors are people like you or me. No person is completely unbiased and no matter how hard they try their own opinions will always leak through.
What your supposed to do is absorb the raw information they give you and use it in your own way. If you disagree with a professor then do a study or experiment and prove him wrong. That is how science advances.
