Mildly concerned about the trajectory of the education profession


I’ll be teaching cell biology next fall. Should I be worried?

Little girl: Sings "Jesus loves me"
Teacher: "Uh, no Sally. That's…uh, that's wrong. The powerhouse of the cell is actually the mitochondria."
Little girl looks stunned.
Cut to teacher being burned at the stake.

    Good thing Christianity is based on love of your fellow man. Or else we would be in a world of hurt.

    Next: Some douchenozzle in a relativity class yells “Jew science!” and hops on the Reichgrifter bandwagon.

    Pretty much my read of the Oklahoma situation.

    …And I get unpleasant flashbacks to some grade school teacher who electro-branded crosses into his students to prove electricity comes from Jesus or something. And forced a Muslim student to eat pork in class. And all the fundies defending him trying to play it down as “They just kicked him out for the bible on his desk!”
