An old joke:

In a Catholic school:

“Johnny, tell us, how does electricity make a bulb work?”

“Through God's help!”

“Good, A for you.”

It's now a reality in the US.

Bonus points! You even showed your work!

I'm sorry, i just can't help myself X = 5 or 1

Allah said 42.

I think I’m converting to pannumerism.

1 * 0 = 0 = 1 *2
(1*0) / 0 = 0 = (2*0) / 0
1 = 2

(/jk, this is why we don’t divide by zero)

x = (X^2 + 5)/6

And what what’s her name said wasn’t even really in the Bible. (Or at least she provided no actual citation to that effect.)

Worse, y’know what is in the Bible?

“Women, shut up.”. 1Tim2, 1Cor14, etc.

(Paul was a dick. And it’s even worse if you go to the Bronze Age bits…)

The ones who are educated down here are from up north. There is no value in education down here.

This case is worse than that. The student didn't even cite the actual bible. No verses quoted, nothing. They mostly quoted right-wing talking points.

So just pastafarianism?

Looks like there's nothing going on behind those eyes

Any diploma she gets is going to be fucking useless with her name forever tied to this story.

It sounds like it may be triggered by the woman who wrote an assignment responding to a psychology paper discussing pressures and bullying of people about gender norms. Her "thoughtful" reaction was essentially "they aren't bullied or pressured, and it totally makes sense that they are being bullied and pressured and they need to accept they don't belong to themselves but belong to God and need to be womanly or manly because God said so"

Didn't even cite the Bible, but the critique was not about citations but about not using evidence to support the claim. Also the inconsistent nature of simultaneously saying there's no bullying or pressure and saying the bullying and pressure are justified in the name of God. Further from a psychology perspective, displays a complete unwillingness to even consider the psychological situation of another human being if it doesn't fully align with the world view.

It probably could have gotten credit if she cited some study extolling the benefits of traditional gender norms and/or the mental stresses of non traditional explorations, I'm sure some conservative nutjiobs have managed to publish such a study, or falling that she could probably dig into 19th century "science" and find something to support her view. It would have been odious. But at least would have demonstrated a willingness to go searching for something to support her stance instead of just shutting down and copping out with a vague "God disagrees"

Like everything else today it’s just a grift.

Stick some pretty 20 something white girl in front of a camera advocating for god in the face of those godless immigrant communists who control higher education. Instant Faux News interviews, do the podcast and YouTuber rounds, bonus points if she is already an influencer… it’s just easy money.

I bet a few believe it, most just back her up because she’s white, Christian and playing in their team.

There are no morals or ideals on the right, just grifts.
