Dumbing Down University

[@kassidymiller3223]

Pat is always so articulate

[@1Fireskull]

+Kasandria Millo >>> The traitor leaders in universities are articulate, too. They approve of NO Borders, MASS immigration, White Guilt, Radical Feminism, and the Islamizing of western nations. Added to this, university leaders push for the low birthrates of whites, which makes Europe extra vulnerable in facing the gigantic Islamic colonization of Europe. If Europe falls to Islam, then the whole world would be doomed. The western universities are enabling the Islamizing of Europe. Whites: Strengthen real family values, resume large families, and prepare for war to liberate Europe from the traitors and invaders.

+Kasandria Millo it's always a pleasure to hear a frustrated and sharp white mans voice. Particular when he is speaking his own native language Proper english ftw!

[@MudderFukker-m6g]

Bob People don't get it that there is no such thing as a 'peaceful Muslim'... if they are 'peaceful' then they aren't really 'Muslims'... in order to be a Muslim, to follow the Qu'ran, there is a LOT of bigotry and violence involved. They may be peaceful, but it is ONLY because they are being 'buffet-style' Muslims like the Christians are in the US... picking and choosing the tenets they follow and dogma they believe, and excluding the stuff they don't want to....

[@SaltpeterTaffy]

***** You're only arguing against the doctrine. I'm arguing in defense of people. Hypocritical in being so or not, most American Muslims are peaceful people. It doesn't matter if you see them as "true Muslims" or not. Sometimes the people who argue about this seem like they WANT the Muslims to be the genuine hateful kind instead of the hypocritical peaceful kind. >_>

[@aeronomer8389]

I teach physics and engineering at a US university and I couldn't agree more.

[@aeronomer8389]

***** Funny how our best students for the last couple of years have been female.

[@aeronomer8389]

P Mason It could just be that they're in the minority so they feel they have to prove themselves. We've had plenty of top-notch male students. I think it's also an issue of maturity to some degree as well.

[@best5345]

+Aero Nomer Please Sir, explain here to people that women in engineering (I have a Software engineering degree) are not feminist in general (I haven't seen one yet). They don't have time to complain, they have classes to pass.

[@aeronomer8389]

best5345 Honestly, I wouldn't know what a student's politics are most of the time. Like you said, physics and engineering majors have too much to do to waste time on the typical nonsense many university students get up to.

[@AnaxofRhodes]

+Aero Nomer: Geologist here. Most of my former classmates were too busy working on school stuff to delve deeply into the nonsensical realm. Folks complained about the lack of Humanities courses; in retrospect, I'd argue it's the school's greatest advantage.

Fully agree Pat. As a landlord catering for Uni students I recently had to suggest that one tenant modify her behavior in a small way. She burst into tears. Awkward and totally unexpected. I have been doing this for 23 years and never have I had this reaction.

[@Rose-hg8ls]

+Johnny Shitpeas maybe its the way you said it . where you shouting or coming across a intimidating. If someone told me to modify my behaviour i wouldnt cry about it.

[@s2hjt]

+savannah seaton Oh yes come to think of it I did have one hand round her throat whilst repeatedly slapping her in the face with the other shouting allahu akbar. No Savanna I was very tactful and gentle as I Know how to deal with people and I genuinely liked her as well as appreciating her revenue stream.

[@Rose-hg8ls]

Johnny Shitpeas Ok. anyway your funny i hope it works out for you. its a bit weird she cried maybe some people are just over-sensitive

[@s2hjt]

+Mutleymondo Certainly not depressed. She would sing Finish folk songs whilst cooking as an example.. She was a breath of fresh air. However talk about anything political (the true Finn party for example) and she would go into deep denial and look at me like I was an Alien'.

[@AllHaiLKINGTIsHeRe3]

+Rahel Erki (Velocirapture) Music is a form of art, not a study of assigning blame to other people for problems that don't even exist. It's not even comparable to something like gender studies in terms of uselessness.

[@credenza1]

+Rahel Erki (Velocirapture) Music is a serious field, with rigorous content and verifiable concepts. It comprises a coherent body of knowledge as well as the accomplishment and mastery of technical skills. Don't feel apologetic - unless of course you are writing anthems for offended feelings.

[@Ihavenolifeorvideos]

Thanks for the video, Pat. I'm a sophomore engineering student, and I've been trying to express this for the past two years. It seems the general opinion is something like "all diplomas are created equal".

[@hermanPla]

2 videos of dear old Pat in 1 week! I didn't know it was my birthday! Im 23 years old and I study history at college to become a history teacher. Me and my classmates feel a collective shame for these entitled cry-babbies in Great-Britain and America. I hope it goes away soon because having a generation of entitled cry-babbies is't good for any civilisation. And I should know because I study civilisations that came and went. Again right on the money Pat. Great video! Much respect from the Netherlands.

[@S99Sweeney]

Thank you, AGAIN, Pat - was having this very conversation with my college-age daughter (an engineering student) yesterday. Couldn't have said it better myself.

[@macklee6837]

PAT CONDELL FOR PRIME MINISTER!

[@kitwells]

Well said Pat! Once, for work purposes, I had to travel on a college bus with twenty or so students to access a London University. The conversation around me was moronic, ill-informed, crap from idiots incapable of putting an idea, let alone a comprehensible sentence, together. What a difference to the students of my generation who had to work hard to get there and even harder to maintain their places. I despair.

[@MacEoin]

As a former university lecturer, I found this riveting and much too true. But I wish Pat had mentioned, apart from the sciences and maths, the need for students to study serious history, philosophy and religious studies. These are among the most difficult subjects because they involve a real understanding of how to criticise and debate ideas. Sadly, these subjects too have been taken over by post-modernist, far-left, over-sensitive teachers and a belief that one must never disturb students. We are in serious danger.

[@brendanthedreamer]

I myself am a History Major, though luckily the professors I've had don't politicize it so much. I'm gonna become a teacher with my degree.

[@bornofgod]

Pat, I really enjoy listening to your realistic slant on things of this current whacky world. As a Christian though, I am a little sad about your thoughts about "religion," however, I would rather be a little saddened by your thoughts, than have my head chopped off by some inbred lunatic who thinks that anyone who does not comply with his beliefs, is an infidel who must die. With regards to the above video "Dumbing Down University," I am glad in a way, that I did not even finish primary education, when I see what some of the so-called educated people have turned (twisted) out to become. Keep up the good work.

[@Jenkkimie]

This is one of my favorite videos! I don't think I have ever laughed for misery before but yeah, that is spot on description of my generation. The generation children - as I have liken to call it.

[@julia393n]

I recently graduated from a university here in Australia, and it is exactly the same. I felt indoctrinated with far left wing viewpoints on everything. The younger students probably fell for it hook line and sinker, but I was an older student so I just wrote the crap they wanted to hear in my assignments and always kept how I really felt to myself. These lecturers get paid over 100,000 a year for not even working a full year and think of themselves as gods.

[@AgenoriaModelTrains]

Same here in the UK, I went to university and was marked down for offering alternative opinions which were mildly critical of gender, race, history, nationality etc. I wasn't even trying to be harsh but yet the intellectual sensitivities of lecturers were triggered. Universities are businesses and students are customers, except the customer is never right. Universities are basically saying shut up and give us your £9k a year!

[@Nualaboala]

My boyfriend was a lecturer in Engineering. He left last year to work in the private sector. He said he will never go back and knowing what I know of the place from my time there I completely agree with his assessment. Universities are not becoming a joke, they already are a joke. STEM fields have been under assault since the mid 2000s and yes the math really is being dumbed down for a lot of students.

[@Nualaboala]

***** Honestly I think from what he has told me and what you describe that you both felt the same way. Promoting others not based on merit but because of their sex or background. I remember him coming home furious one day when he was told during a departmental meeting that he was expected to mark the girls in the course easier during assessments because the university wanted to keep the numbers up. He couldn't do the same for the boys though. They had to work at a higher standard essentially. That's not to say that women are stupid, just that these female students were being given a handicap they wouldn't get in the real working world. Consequently now most companies are reluctant to hire from the graduate pool since the standards are so unreliable which hurts men and women. Even worse (and I have seen this myself) he told me false claims of discrimination by students will ruin the profession and personal lives of male lecturers now and more often than not it is a disgruntled student lying. I work in the healthcare sector and moved into the private sector recently. I have seen female student nurses coming out of universities with such entitlement attitudes that they will make false harassment claims against a man if they feel under pressure. Professionalism is something most students lack now and bring this attitude from university that they are "special" and anyone who doesn't accommodate their sense of specialness than they are "misogynists", "racists", "discriminating", or whatever buzzword they want to use. In reality no professional has time to be handholding these special snowflakes. Anyways, my boyfriend is much happier in the private sector and while he is earning less (for now) but his peace of mind and integrity is more important.

[@Nualaboala]

***** It is sad that the sector is losing guys as good as you but at this point there is no way to fight against the tide of BS.

[@hannahconfino5824]

My brother's obsessed with Safe Space and feeling like a victim. Awkward situation at home.

[@fcgash]

+Hannah Confino Not really, prove to him there is no such thing as a safe space. I assume he feels his bedroom is a safe space? If so, next time he is in there feeling all victimised, go and beat him up. Pull his duvet over him (top tip) so your parents cant hear, and then proceed to beat the shit out of him. Elbow him, its more efficient than punching, and will hurt you less. Peoples homes are meant to be safe spaces, that has never stopped someone from being murdered or raped in their own home though has it.

[@Rose-hg8ls]

+Hannah Confino what are safe spaces exactly i quite curious

[@fcgash]

savannah seaton Somewhere where insults and violence are not allowed, created by people who's feelings get easily hurt eg. feminists. I thought we had always had these kinds of places anyway, you know, places like schools (which get shot up) and churches (which get shot up). Come to think of it, can anyone think of a place in the western world where i am actually allowed to beat the general public up?

[@Rose-hg8ls]

fcgash thanks for the definition. If we keep wrapping kids in cotton wool we are going to become an nation of pussies. Why wont people understand with free speech they are no limitations once a society starts to dictate how people can exercise free speech you will no longer have free speech. safe spaces is bullshit because nowhere is fucking safe . i am 18 years old people say things thst offend me do i demand special protection for my feeling hell no i tell them to go fuck selfselfves i stick my middle fingers to society. to think these people around my age group are going to our next mps in the future. we need to man as a society and i am only an 18. have a lovely day

[@fcgash]

savannah seaton I'm glad to hear there are still some young people like you about. And yea, that's pretty much my feeling's on society too mate. I'm offended by their bullshit, no-one cares and nor do i. That's just life.

[@jonathanliptrot9622]

Pat, Sir, you are a legend. Thank you for taking the time to articulate what healthy minds are thinking. Please stand as an independent MP you would have a landslide victory and be a talisman for others to follow.

[@Billy97ify]

Brutal truth.

[@OPHIOHANNAH]

As usual, Pat Condell has expressed my opinion better than I could have done so myself. When I first heard of the concept of "safe spaces" at universities it took about a nano-second to realize that it was a case of people wishing to discriminate against others on the grounds of promoting 'tolerance' and 'non-discrimination.'

[@anong1470]

I am not even sure I should go to university anymore.

[@michaelhutchison1972]

+Clementine No. It completely depends on the subject matter. Anything ending in "studies" should typically be avoided.

[@skaruts]

+Kozur If you have a sturdy backbone, thick skin and are able to stand up for what's right and just, then you should. They need people like that there.

[@anong1470]

+skaruts I am in senior year of high school right now. Within my (granted, small) group of peers I am the only one with 'right wing' views who is not offended by arguments backed up by facts that might hurt the precious feelings of some. The amount of leftist touchie-feelie retardation I already experience every time there are debates makes me question what I am in for at university. I am not planning on backing down, but seeing the type of hysterical bullshit coming out of American universities, with rational people being shouted down and vilified I simply question whether it would be worth the hassle. Although I suppose that choosing a study with actual job prospects might help me steer clear of the most retarded and vocal of the SJW lunatics.

[@skaruts]

Kozur Yea, well, as long as you choose something with value or, more importantly, something you actually enjoy, you'll be fine in the end (assuming they teach you what you're supposed to learn in whatever classes you have to take). As for the others... let's see how this turns out.

[@Rose-hg8ls]

+Kozur i know its difficult to deicide whether you want to go to uni i used to be in your position and sometimes parents can unhelpful let me help you . My advice to you is think firstly about what is your future carer aspiration is and do you need a degree to purse it then going to uni would be an obvious choice if not then look at alternatives such as an apprenticeships talk to careers advisor about this option. Going to uni is not bad thing neither is not going is a bad thing. I am 18 i going to uni people my age just need to be careful what degrees pursue avoid certain degrees like politics,gender studies or criminology as it is hard to find a filed in these . make a list of pros and cons of going to university these are your own personal reasons . AS time goes on you will know whether going to uni is right for you or not trust me soon you will know it may seen answer may not come but it will come. if you are still not sure then dont go. its better not to go to uni than go and regret it, many people start uni late a teacher at my school went to uni at 30 go when it feels right for you. My aspiration is to be a solicitor which is why i want to do law, i know a law degree is long but it is want i want an i will fight for it . i am going to get a job while at uni and not depend too much on my student loans . Take care and good luck with the future it will work out and things will fall in to place , it may seem bumpy and confusing but things will clear up.

[@GoodTimeswithMinecraft69]

Well said! Being an academic (of the honorable "old school", with a degree in a field that actually contributes ... physics) myself, I could not agree more with what you just said. It is frightening to see the decline of the academic system with such a rapid pace, and the "devaluation" of the work of many brilliant people (think Tim Hunt or Matt Taylor), just because they dared to offend someone somewhere with something not even worth mentioning among people with even just half a brain. The situation is futile, and, to be honest, I gave up even to hope for a return to the true values, ethical rules, and merit-based internal workings of the academic system. I call it "the end of progress", and it is here. And please don't take people serious who show you the arrogant "you are not an academic" shoulder. You, Mr. Pat Condell, make far more sense than most of the people I've ever met in my long life, inside and outside academia!

Spot on as usual Pat

[@michaelh102]

I was a mature university student, so I know that what you're saying is closer to the truth than it was when I graduated (to no job prospect) 20 years ago. I worked in Japan instead, because there was no prospect for a life for me in my home country. Choosing to make another country your home is a difficult decision, but it is better to try than cry like a baby. The Baby attitude of many young first-time-ever-away-from-home University adult kids is not their fault. They have been lead to believe something about their own capabilities which do not necessarily balance sensibly with human needs, but rather falsely inflated desires which are readily bought into - to satisfy the brat child insistence. When the reality of poor parenting hits home, it's already too late! It will not matter that that these kids know S---t about Maths, engineering, fiscal analysis, or Global Economic balance etc. Most people in the UK do not know what is happening beyond Calais, which is terrifying! I have not given up - despite (or because of) the loss of my family, home, and everything. Moreover, together I think we can still help - if only for our lost children, to greed, ideologies, and unrealistic expectations. Thank You for this!

[@RobCCTV]

Precision commentary, as usual. Well done Pat !! I'd vote Pat to be the next Pope, however...

[@AlfaPegasii]

I am an academic of sorts (PhD) but work most of the time in the real world as an accountant. I have to say that with the market orientation of most Australian universities these days we are starting to lose some of the SJWs in professorships; being an SJW translates into poor articles for publication - I mean how many top rate academic journals want another article about identity issues & engineering, or feminism and accounting, or race and how it relates to law? These SJWs will still own the arts faculties, but the job market excludes them from anything but teaching.

[@davektver2863]

I was (un)fortunate enough to teach university courses in "boo-hoo-ism" and "oh-woe-is-me-ism" until I couldn't take it any more. Pat's bang on. This was some years ago, but before we could teach, we had to attend sessions on classroom conduct. I recall the teary-eyed woman telling her story of how she had an interpretation of a work of literature and a boy in the class did not agree with her. "OK, academic disagreement," thought I, "A healthy thing to occur in a university." You could have wiped the floor with my dropped jaw when the professors teaching the session hugged the woman and said she was within her rights to report this boy to the dean. "Huh?" Report a young man for disagreeing with another student? Yikes!! This was 20 years ago, and it has evolved into the victim-hood clown show we see today on virtually all university campuses.

[@seanb3516]

Pat's style of speaking is really interesting. The opinions are well backed and the information is good however it is the enthralling delivery that takes the cake. I have wondered if he is able to shoot these in a single take or if the casual delivery style requires more effort, writing, multiple takes for mistakes, etc. I would like to see Pat in a public speaking forum to see how well that goes. Or over a pint of bitters of course! Generation Snowflake. Luvit

[@onesandzeroes]

+arcanist9 I don't know at what point you've noticed him reading. If he is, he's doing it very skilfully. I've tried recording video both with and without a script and you can immediately see the difference - when reading you're not looking straight at the camera all the time, because the text has to be off to a side somewhere. Pat is looking straight at the camera all the time, do you think he's got the text printed on the lenses? Also, if it's a piece of paper, you'd probably see white reflections in his glasses.

Wow! You Sir are an amazing author. This is funnier to me the second time I hear it. Perfectly true and perfectly hilarious. I just recommended your site today to a co-worker. And writing down your name for her stating I don't know how he does it. It is so well written. Yet your eyes never leave the camera. Please keep up the outstanding work.

The Socratic methode is taking a beating these days .

[@Herzankerkreuz67]

+Pat Condell As always I bow to you rhetoric skills !!! Unfortunately it is the truth that society has past its intellectual summit and intelligence is on the decline ! Spot on !!!

[@5micky2]

Pat is the Shakespeare of Scorn. If language were lethal, Pat would be neck deep in bodies.

[@hunterbravo9638]

Pat Condell: I am shocked that you did not go to a university. You are so well versed and well spoken. I do not know what you do to make a living, but you should be making speeches in every college, university & high school. I believe you could make some of those Gestapo liberals change their mind.

[@tokra1000]

Standing fucking ovation

[@TheScientificSkeptic]

Nailed it, Mr. Condell. There was a time when I found you far too inflammatory. I now have an enhanced appreciation for your content, eloquence and direct style. Agree or not, you don't candy-coat and you have the courage of your convictions.

[@nascar0509]

Oh, sorry Pat......just had to pick myself up off the floor from laughing, but oh so sadly true!

[@interalia3638]

I've just watched Dunkirk and couldn't help but contrast those young men forming orderly queues to get on an unseawortty boat in between being dive bombed. Many young man had lied about their age to join up because they knew their country was in peril. Stranded on a beach they faced death from every side and little hope of rescue but they kept discipline. Wouldn't they have wanted a safe space? Somewhere to hide away from bombs and bullets? But there wasn't anywhere. If they got on a boat they had every chance of being bombed or the boat itself would never make it through the channel because it was designed for river cruising. I'm not an eloquent man (as you can tell) but I have so much respect for those brave soldiers and civilians trying against the odds to get the Expeditionary Force home. As Churchill rightly said 'we mustn't ascribe Dunkirk as a victory. Battles are not won by evacuation' but lets be thankful this country once had such lions fighting for our freedom. Too many youngsters today are so precious and so pathetic they don't know they're born.

[@MudderFukker-m6g]

I refer them to them as the 'Trophies-for-Losers' Generation.

[@aucourant9998]

Nice one Pat. There are some great English proponents of sanity on KZbin at the moment and the wonderful thing is how lucid and literate they all are. My favourites at the moment are Douglas Murray, Pat Condell and Paul Joseph Watson. Once again Britain is holding its own with the best of the rest of the world.

[@scottl9591]

Simply brilliant so true its unbelievable this bloke talks so much sense keep up the good work 👍

[@branislavboba1699]

Thank you Pat a million times for this speech! This really is a masterpiece. Can't get any more precise and eloquent than that.

[@daveevans1410]

I am in my 60s .... I was thick as shit or so I thought I was at leaving school at 14 years old . The cleverer kids went to college after leaving school .... I am now a taxi driver that picks up uni students .....my sad arse has more knowledge about everything compared to these and I have read so much more than these idiots who just use google . I pick up chinese uni students that cannot speak a word of english ... but hey ... they pay their money and can go back home and say they have been to an english university ..... I pick up english students who spend 5 minutes working out how much a 5 quid fare is for 4 of them . You think I am kidding ? Now and again I pick up someone who is dedicated ..... but its very rare .

[@seveno1]

They ought to play this on a large screen at the entrance to all schools, universities and the houses of parliament ..well said ,Pat keep em coming mate ...

[@ArchangelLucifer0]

Masterfully said. A drop of wisdom in the ocean of stupidity.

[@mirotrash]

+Archangel Lucifer A drop of wisdom in the ocean of stupidity is useless , unless it triggers a tidal wave.

[@NoctuaStrigiformes]

You may not have gone to University, but you are educated. I love the way you deliver your message. Thank you and please, please, please continue. If you are on patreon, I will definitely contribute!

[@UnknownProfilename]

I see a lot of negativity around education in general here. People saying that students are brain washed. A lot of generalization. In my university, we don't have any of the degrees you talk about. But the world needs doctors, scientists, engineers and people who knows economy. remember that.

[@primus7776]

Massive plaudits and appreciation for this Man. I love the way his distaste of the subject matter forces him to actually choke, swallow, and gag on the words of wisdom he delivers in so consummate a manner. I can relate, as can many. Fantastic, Mr Condell. Don't stop anytime soon.

[@NCLUSA]

Pat For American President. No I'm not kidding. This man always makes good sense. Go Pat!!!!,,,, tell them the truth, but I'm afraid they are too dumb to understand.

[@PacoOtis]

Pat! From here in the States I must tell you we are in an even worse situation and it is truly pathetic. Please carry on with your messages. You are a breath of fresh air to those of us stifled by the horseshit we see and hear everyday! Thanks old boy!

[@beebeer]

Pat I've been watching your videos for years and I still find it hard to find anyone else who talks more sense than you. Oh, I've just thought of someone Nigel Farage, it's a close call ?

[@markdstump]

I have a modest degree in Mathematics: Your understanding of the difference between subjects grounded in empiricism and rigorous logic on the one hand, and indulgent emotional-masturbation on the other hand...seems spot on to me.

[@adelarsen9776]

"Gender driven bullshit study" - Classic Condell. LOL

[@jimlovell6963]

Wow. I actually worked with a total idiot from Ethiopia who graduated from The University of Colorado in Boulder who had no idea how to form numbers. I often wondered how she accomplished this. Thank you for clearing that up for me Pat.

[@blujay1524]

One of your best videos yet

[@bcaffrey98]

My sides hurt. "Bombarded with gender-specific pronouns and buried under an avalanche of micro-aggressions." LOL! That's too perfect! Sadly, Pat didn't find a way to work in the Ruby players shouting licentious limericks full of sexism and stereotypes.

[@brianmosse]

Post this to your face book and find out who your real friends are. LOL

[@tellyintokyo]

I would have agreed 25 years ago. Back then "Human Sexuality Studies" taught us that if you are not into any possible sex act with anyone there is some wrong with YOU while at same time various victims' studies disciplines taught us all sex acts regardless of consent victimized someone show how. Only people who actually believed either extreme somehow managed to believe both. Now these people are running shit.

[@Timasion]

I think Pat is my favorite British Atheist. To all the whiners and wankers, no one cares about your feelings.

[@barryharding1842]

Wonderful! Pat is spot on again. The real sadness is that we taxpayers are supporting these mad departments in UK universities.

[@SmartK8]

Gender study students don't worry! I've heard that McDonald's is hiring.

[@lumajs]

I've taught physics at Harvard for years but that doesn't prevent me from agreeing with every word of yours. A great monologue.

[@cavvy1499]

Absolutely fucking destroyed

[@prove_it000]

Oh my goodness, Pat, I had no idea that education has been corrupted to this degree! It is barbaric! Ever so thankful to have you as a ray of hope!

[@andrewwian4921]

I like your comments 99% of the time Pat but please don't compare Jesus Christ's teachings to Muslim teachings or put all spiritual beliefs in the same boat

[@Kevin15047]

+Andrew Wian I suppose it isn't fair to compare cancer to the flu. But cancer being worse doesn't make the flu a good thing. God is a dick in the old testament, a pussy in the new testament and an asshole in the koran.

[@Kevin15047]

Andrew Wian That's the thing. He didn't have to die. I can forgive people without a blood sacrifice, but god can't? Maybe god's just into s&m? I don't know. No, he can't just forgive people. He has to make them kill his kid/him and then that somehow makes it possible to forgive people. And for goodness sake, have you read the old testament? What the hell is the difference between the ancient isrealites and the muslims? The tribes of isreal pillaged, raped, and killed, all with god's blessing.

[@andrewwian4921]

God didn't create sinful man if you recall. He created us without sin initially. "We" then chose to sin against God because of our own free will that God gave us. Then because of his love and mercy, he sent Jesus to be our substitute so we wouldn't have to spend eternity away from his presence.  doesn't sound schizophrenic to me mate. Sounds loving and merciful

[@Kevin15047]

Andrew Wian Then you might be schizophrenic.

[@lostperfection05]

+Andrew Wian You seem to be dancing around the fact, that sending Jesus to die for our sins makes zero sense. When god is all powerful, he doesn't need to do some blood ritual to forgive us, he just does it, because he is all powerful. It sounds like you've grown up hearing the same stories since you can remember, and haven't questioned them enough. When you talk to god in your head, it's just you listening, maybe a scary thought, but it is what it is.

[@tbone35453]

Well said. But are there any practical solutions to this madness? One of the root causes is the dumbing down of primary and secondary education, coupled with the destruction of discipline in schools. That's where to start.

[@drjimbomac]

Pat's dripping sarcasm is delicious. His views on religion, however, are less palatable.

[@sasquatch0o0o15]

Pat, you are brilliant and you have rare moral clarity. You are spot on.
