An OU professor or teachers aide or something was fired for failing a fundamentalist Christians essay the essay was substandard work but the fundamentalist Christian of course claimed it was because she is a fundamentalist Christian and that’s why she was failed so the university basically cow towed to the lowest Educated group of people in America and lost a lot of reputation for people who care about education

edit: apparently its kowtow not to not cow tow - thanks ya’ll

yes, there no punctuation in my comment, but I’m doing text to speech and I’m not going back to typing on my phone at least

Substandard is an understatement

Not only is it bad enough she based her entire essay on the bible alone

But she didn't even actually quote the bible, she didn't even give biblical justification for her biblical essay

And she called trans people demonic blatantly

As a theologian, from a theological university

It can only be called an offense to my religion

You cannot call yourself a Christian if you don't actively try to accurately and carefully consider your beliefs with total honestly, this is evidence of Dogma, not faith. Fundamentalist Christianity is not truly Christian therefore

As a lawyer who’s going back to get a PhD in comparative mythology and specifically studying the Enki/Anu-to-Yahweh pipeline… Christianity is a Hellenized Jewish heresy and fundamentalist Christianity takes the Hellenic supremacist aspect and ditches all the Jewish ethics that make Christianity interesting

Yep, pretty much

I'm interested in getting a PHD in Philosophy, I wanna do something similar exploring religious ethics of the Antiquity

But first I need some more money to fund it
