He's somewhat of a know-it-all who doesn't explain things very well at all. The work load is light, but incredibly difficult. If your answers aren't DEAD ON, your up to lose a lot of points. I thought philosophy was supposed to be objective, not what one guy thinks ancient philosophers were actually talking about.

If you like philosophy do not take this class. He spent the first couple weeks talking about his thermos that he brought to class, everything related to it in his mind. It is almost impossible to understand his unrelated ramblings and is a waste of money. The book was made for his class, it is thin and cheap and almost useless to his lesson plan

He was a very bad teacher and i would like my money back. The first few weeks were spent relating all his theories to his water bottle which he carried to class each day. The homework and tests were based on his uncomprehensible ramblings and not the book. This was a very frustrating class.

Fantastic class. He is open for debate on anything he teaches, and whatever wins out is what we're tested on. If you do the work, you will score well. If you think his opinion is wrong and don't say anything in lecture, you can't complain about an "opinion-based" test. That, or you're upset because you tried to debate and got steamrolled.

I do NOT recommend this teacher if you're just stepping into philosophy. He knows his stuff, but expects you to be on his level. If you aren't and you ask questions he can be very condescending. Also, he only offers only 5 grades total in the whole semester so, if you get a bad grade on a test, expect your overall grade to plummet.

I think he is a good teacher but the subject is to boring. One thing to note is he is scary to question/approach

Professor christ is your average instructor nothing out of the ordinary. He comes off somewhat cold via online communication as my class was online over summer. The class wasn't very difficult but he wasnt very understanding of some personal issues I was having. He is a pretty easy grader and tries to break down a complex subject into easier terms.

Do not take this professor if you are not a philosophy major. I took this class as an elective out of a passive interest in ethics and it was a horrible mistake. Hes a very harsh grader and when you dont agree completely with his viewpoint he will take points off, even if you worked really hard on your response. Feedback can be condescending also

Horrible do not take. He does not have clear grading criteria. Literally grades your midterm and final (both of which are hand written in class open essay to a few questions) with no rubric. He just grades based off what he thinks. If its anything opposing his ideas he will fail you. Hes not approachable. He grades based off attendance too. Bore

Class is lecture based but he makes it entertaining. Not a lot of HW just some reading before class usually less than 5 pages. Other homework is discussion posts and tests. I found it interesting but if you don't like abstract thinking your not gonna have a fun time.

Professor Christ is one of my favorite professors at Moraine. His lectures are great and help you a lot in understanding the material. The readings can be confusing at times, but he clears up that confusion at the next lecture. He also stays after class if you have questions or. If you reread and look at the lectures, you will pass the class.

I would highly recommend this class. The lectures are engaging and the course work is not overloading- it helps you learn to think critically and articulate your ideas. I would totally recommend this class! Grading is fair- the effort you put into the class will be reflected in your grade. You will get a lot out of this class.

My most entertaining class throughout my associate degree was this one with Professor Christ. Lectures are thorough, fun, and supplemented with good real life examples. Homework and tests are all online now and open book. He is also very approachable during and after class. Overall the best professor I have had so far. I highly recommend trying it

Pay attention in Prof. Christ's classes! Take good notes! Some of the readings can be hard, but his lectures make them very understandable. The class is worth taking, and really makes you think about what you consider to be good--and why.

Pretty smooth professor. This is my second time taking a course with him, and he uses the same setup for every class. I recommend taking your humanities online, because they are practically useless in the long run. Quizzes are short response, tests are copied off quizlet. Never once talked to this professor, though I'm sure he's a good guy.

christ is very chill yet his lectures & reading assignments can be a lot. class days consist of sitting in your desk, listening to him lecture the entire time. exams are 2 hours long and quizzes are 1 hour long. he will give a long feedback on what you got wrong. as a first year, i adapted pretty fast but some of the material it was hard to grasp.

Can be a little intimidating but honestly think it's just bc he feels awkward, good at explaining, graded only tests/quizzes, thoroughly explains readings, USE QUOTES on every graded item, all lecture, intellectual questions appreciated, TAKE NOTES, all in all a good guy

If you wanna pass his class, you gotta dedicate so much time to it. It's very difficult and he over explains stuff to the point where he confuses you. All of your grades are raw and subject to what he thinks, there are no extra credit opportunities

SUCH an interesting class, but you do have to work for your A. Lots of citing the textbook (which tbh was a great read) and hes a bit of a tough grader, but he is THOROUGH in why he grades you what he did. One assignment a week most weeks, and its either a DB or a quiz (which is a paragraph or 2). great class!

This class was super interesting if you need an elective I recommend this one. He is a tough grader, but he gives helpful feedback. There is not many assignments there's 2 exams and quizzes in between. If you skip class it'll be hard to catch up but he always posts overviews of the topic so look in the modules section thoroughly.

The most intelligent and best critical thinkers I know, were students of Christ. I have a friend, who became a physics major philosophy minor BECAUSE of Prof. Christ. His lectures, are phenomenal. If you want to LEARN, TAKE CHRIST! his lectures are amazing. he lays out everything in prefect DETAIL. If ur confused, u WERENT paying attention. Simple

I took Professor Christ over the summer, and the class was good. You will have to read a decent amount of text to complete discussion post and weekly quizzes on canvas that involve citing quotes from the textbook. All exams were on canvas so it was quite easy to get an A. Quite harsh when grading, gives great feedback. Overall, not a bad class.

I had Prof. Christ for world religions in 2024 and it was fully online. Every week the assignments were essentially to read about a religion and post to a discussion board with ~three paragraphs and respond to people (due Wednesdays) and then the main assignment was just to submit almost a paper long response to a similar question due that weekend

A good prof, but he's got some flaws. You absolutely cannot miss a class, or you'll fall far behind. You read from the textbook a lot and all tests/quizzes require citations from the textbook. He tends to overexplain things which often confused me. He's also a tough grader but provides lengthy feedback that genuinely helped! Take good notes!!!

He accused me of using AI on at least five assignments just because I got a page number wrong. I turned everything in on time and used all his resources like the PDFs, textbook, booklet, Google Slides, and videos. All the page numbers and quotes I used come straight from the materials he gave us. This class is stressful DON'T TAKE IT!
