R. C. Sproul tells the story of when he was a college professor. At the start of the semester, the class of about 150 students had three papers due, let's say, at noon on October 1st, November 1st, and December 1st. The penalty for a late paper was a zero grade.

"Oh, Professor Sproul, don't sweat it! Don't worry about it! We'l ...
