Why School is at Odds With Christian Belief

I'm sure that at one point or another we have all wanted to tell our teachers that homework was against our religion. Once I even joked about creating a religion in which this was the case, unfortunately I don't think that anyone would follow a religion where I was to be the supreme ruler. Anyways, I HAVE UNDISPUTED EVIDENCE THAT HOMEWORK GOES AGAINST BASIC CHRISTIAN BELIEFS**

Matthew 6:34 says "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own".

According to this passage I shouldn't worry about the next day. Let me ask, how many of us have worried about an upcoming test, or a paper that we've procrastinated on, or a teacher assigning 50 pages of reading in some obscure book like Thomas Kuhn's "Structure of Scientific Revolutions" due by tomorrow? In accordance with this, homework is a source for a lot of stress and worry, therefore it goes against my religion. If something like homework causes me to start sweating from pores that I didn't even know I had.

Another example of why school is against Christian belief is because of the separation of Church and state that is imposed upon the public school system. Mark 16:15 says "Go into all the world and preach the good word to all creation". Teachers are not allowed to preach the gospel to their students, which makes the public school system unbiblical. Because of this, I don't think that I should have been required to attend all those years. And besides, I think that we can all agree that middle school was a living Hell, and since Hell is separation from God, I think that we can all draw the conclusion that Middle School is the anti-christ.

Some could say that the private school system avoids this, and it does, but it still gives homework. So there fancy private christian schools.


**I'm sure that someone somewhere who is much smarter than me could easily turn my argument into swiss cheese, but those people should just shut up. I mean come on, do they really want homework?



Well, If anyone wants to use this argument on their teacher, then you will have to pay me a royalty fee of 10 dollars, or take me out for pizza. (I'd prefer the pizza).

Adios!

Fake Forum

Forum: a place, meeting, or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged. To those of you who read this, or just happened upon it, you might be wondering why i started off with a definition of a word, especially given my distate for the human language, i mean seriously forum. it sounds like a UPS worker can't make up his mind.

Worker: Hi I have a package FOR. . .UM. . .UH. . . nevermind.

See?!?!

Anyways, I gave the definition because my college has a place known as "The Forum" it's simply a nice area that is semi-closed off from the rest of campus and sits right in front of the bible building. Oddly enough, it is not a place where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged. Unless of course you count the exchange of communicable diseases by way of saliva. I mean seriously, this is like couple's central 340 days out of the year. It reminds me more of a High School Hallway than a forum. Thankfully I am the only person sitting here right now and if anything happens to change that I will promptly leave and go vomit into my hat. Actually probably not....I kinda like my hat. Anyways. For all of it's faults, the forum is a great place to sit and think, do homework, or just escape the world for a while. . .Especially since the internet reception is spotty at best. It's like a leprechaun is holding the router just out of range of my computer and then suddenly decides to run by really fast giving me about 5.6 seconds of internet. Thankfully that is enough time for me to post this.

well, it's getting dark now, but i'm kinda enjoying it. The sound of the water trickling down the fountains, combined with the narnia-esque lamposts makes me feel like i'm in my own world, which currently, consists of procrastinating and doing everything I can to avoid homework. Well, That's the end of my stream of conciousness writing. Hmmmm.....wait.....nope that's it. or is it? who knows.

Time for a quote

""

Profound isn't it? I thought so...the empty space represents whatever the heck you want it too cause I don't feel like searching for a quote.

Until we meet again!

Language and Learning

Once again I'm sitting in class, it's like totally super fantastic and exciting and stuff. Okay so that was sarcasm, but at least I understand what is going on a little better. . .Understand. . .Under--Stand. How the heck does understand mean "to know"? it sounds like I'm standing under a bridge or something. once again let me express my distate for the english language, and the word again. again--"to repeat" a gain "to obtain more".....anyone else see a problem here? no? okay well maybe i'm just imagining that I speak a flawed language. Besides, everything sounds better when spoken in a foreign language. For example, let's say something in French. . . L'ectriture est pour les ecrivains. For those of you mortals who don't speak french, I just said that writing is for writers, but it sounded cooler. And let's just all agree that everything sounds better in Latin. Hodie diu. (This day is long) not only did it sound cool, but it was shorter, so I didn't end up with finger cramps from typing too much. 

On a different note. Today I had to sit and listen to a fellow student give a presentation on some type of fancy Chemistry stuff. All I remember is something about copper combining with CO3.- to make symplex 3. . .In other words I had NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON!!! Although I'm sure it was very interesting to 3 people. 1.) the speaker 2.) my professor and 3.) people who knew what was going on. . . I was not in any of these categories. While the student was speaking I was off in la la land thinking about which route back to my dorm would get me back fastest so that I could avoid the 75 mph gusts of wind. and no I'm not exaggerating.  And when I wasn't thinking about that I was trying to not fall asleep. So overall it was a very productive class. 

Hmmm, well It has come to my attention that this blog has no real substance, it is pure rambling. so....for your academic enjoyment, I give you. . . . . *drum roll* *applause* cheering*    A quote of the day. (cliche? yes. but who cares)

crede quod habes, et habes. (Believe that you have it, and you do)

Not only was that insightful and biblically accurate (Mark 11:24), but it was also in Latin

Sayonarra!
