i wanted to make just a thread for this statement of mind control as it was very blatant .

" it states, " if you are a christian husband, remember that your wife is also your christian sister.

Benefit of Theocratic School for women?

i'm taking a portfolio development class as this is my final term before graduation.

i've had a few opportunities in the last 3 years to speak in front of groups of students and found it not too difficult since i was able to present my digital graphic work via the computer projection system and it was dark in the room and i didn't have to make too much audience contact.

but yesterday was the first time i had to speak in front of about 30 people with just me and a little physical portfolio, and i felt like a dope.

My mom won't be the other (which is the other female speaker-- householder and *what*?). She will only be householder. Despite the fact that she is smarter than most of the sisters that she gives talks with (AND than the semi-literate brothers that stumble through talks from the platform). She is just so self concious. It is unfortunate.

Seriously. 19-year olds that can barely pronounce any word that is multi-syllabic get to "teach" before the congregation but these brilliant women are forced to be in this subservient position. Well- I guess that they are there voluntarily.. but still.

Is it just me or have you noticed that the "sisters" in the congregation are always much more intelligent than the "brothers"?

I am totally with you.

It is so demeaning to women to get "up on stage" and practice talking to another sister... and call that a "talk".

Good for you for finally getting up on stage to talk!! I have been so fortunate to be able to give talks on my research- it is absolutely different than the canned crap that the "brothers" spew out that is termed "research" on bible subjects. Please.

It will get better- I have given absolute crap talks to audiences and have also given talks that have been very well received by audiences of my peers.

To call the TMS a "public speaking course" is ridiculous. Especially for women!

Well what was she expecting??? When I was 15 I knew that UV rays cause skin cancer and wrinkles and skin damage. Why in the WORLD would anyone go in TWICE a DAY for concentrated shots of UV?

New Degree Field: Master's Degree in Creationism.

by BurnTheShips in

bill would allow texas school to grant master's degree in science for creationismwednesday, march 18, 2009 .

by nora zimmett.

a texas legislator is waging a war of biblical proportions against the science and education communities in the lone star state as he fights for a bill that would allow a private school that teaches creationism to grant a master of science degree in the subject.

It's really hard to prove plagiarizing... there are some kids who had SUED the school over grades and other slights... I am but a mere TA and it is SO frustrating to see the professors I work with just seems to give up and give second chances to kids who are out and out failure material...

Rich kids arre the worst. What we get here at the U of A are spoiled brats who cannot get in to the UC (or even CSU) system because of bad grades. These kids have their wealthy parents ship them out here because it is easier to get in and they think it is a big party school (it is).

Fortunately (or not) I don't have finding (in the form of teaching assistantships) for next year so I won't be dealing with that frustration...

You know what- based on the degree actually meaning ANYTHING, the kids that have gone through the science-for-non-science-majors classes that I have TAed for are just a HAIR away from creation science degrees themselves. They cheat, lie, plagiarize, lie some more and want at LEAST a "B" for their efforts. They might as well have a creation science degree as a BA from any of the major universities (well, at least the U of A) it seems like. The sorority and fraternity kids are the worst of the lot.

The professors really try to present meaningful material in an accessable manner- these kids aren't students, they are little jerks who think they need a degree for some reason or other or are there to party and snag a hot, potentially rich man or wife.

They are rich, willfully ignorant brats who demand a degree handed to them on a platter. These are the morons who are running their dad's companies and going into managerial positions, subsequently making OUR lives hell when we inevitably have to deal with them in some way in our day-to-day.

You wouldn't think it but I do like teaching- but sheesh, in some classes you may as well be reading out of a Swahili dictionary, for all the information the kids take from their time in class.

What to do...?...
