School is L-A-M-E

Yep, college is way lame, my teacher is pretty much an idiot, or at least incompetent. He also appears to be slightly anti-semitic, which is wonderful considering its a class on world religions. Another thing, he also shows unwarranted favoritism towards certain religions, so much that he doesn't point out certain MAJOR flaws. Now I know, Christianity has major flaws, one I truly believe is down right wrong is the fact that women can't be priests. Women should be allowed to be priests, and I don't think priests should be forced to be celebate, but hey, I'm not the Pope, I can't enforce that stuff. But yeah, like one of the flaws of Hinduism that our book mentions is when a man dies, it is customary for his wife to commit ritual suicide by lighting herself on fire so she can go with him into the afterlife. Now, don't think I'm bashing a religion, I love Hinduism as a majority, but that "kill yourself for your husband" stuff is bullshit. The ancient Mongols and the Ming Dynasty in China practiced that. Now, whats odd is if a wife dies, the husband goes free, bullshit, if she has to kill herself, he should too, its only fair, equality of the sexes dammit. So yeah, thats my one little rant, then my teacher, he is constantly on my case for not participating in class, mainly cuz I don't, I don't talk to other students, I don't socialize (since I basically refuse to in general). I just don't socialize at school, I gave up on that. So I need to think of a way to tell my teacher to back off before I call him an idiot or a racists or something that will probably get me thrown out of the class. I could go on and on about him and on and on about how all religions have a flaw that is just straight up stupid, but I'm not going to, because, who wants to read that long of a journal (this one is massive already) and DA would probably be pissed that I'm using a lot of ideological talk. Anyways, ART! Right now I'm working on some ideas, like maybe do some ethnic drawings, oh course along my guidelines. Tell me what you think or if you have suggestions, also, requests open, so long as they're present in a note and all that jazz. Peace out my homies, so sorry for the long mildly pointless journal entry, I just had to rant real fast.

I wouldn't say that was pointless. :)

As far as the class goes, I would go to your school counselor and let them know your feelings on the class. It could be you are not the only one feeling this way and others have complained...

AS far as equality in the sexes, you have to remember one simple fact. Aside from the US and the UK, how many countries actually have equality? How many of them have had it for any length of time? (We haven't even had it for 100 years in the US yet.)

As far as I recall, most religions put down women, expecting them to follow their husband into death, be buried with him, or whatever...

Anyway. I think it twas a good rant. Try and make friends in the class. :) Friends are good.

GOod luck on the newer drawings!

I don't know about going to a counselor, I've seen them before a year or two back and they pretty much don't do their job. Now, I'm all for gender equality, but not generalized equality, thats non-sense, I don't think a high school drop out should be considered my "equal" just because were the same skin color or whatever. So yeah, religious equality probably won't ever happen, but I sure hope it does. Anyways, wahhhh making friends is scary, I'm not fond of stranger....and thanks for the vote of good luck and thanks for appreciating my rant.
