Colleges Offer Courses On "Queering" Children & The Bible

This school year, students across the country will attend courses on “Queering the Bible,” “Queering Childhood,” “Queering Theology,” and similar topics.

Students at Pomona College in Claremont, California, for instance, will have the opportunity to enroll in a brand new course titled “Queering Childhood,” which will examine “the figure of the Child and how this figuration is used by politics, law, and medicine to justify continued cultural investment in reproductive heteronormativity and productive ablebodiedness.”

The course description explains that students will examine the childhoods of “queer and crip children,” as well as “childhoods against which the figure of the Child is articulated,” with reference to work related to “gender studies, childhood studies, disability studies, and queer theory.”

Ever wonder why they get college degrees but can't get a job???

"I have a Masters in......queerness"

Don't let the door hit you in the ace, Raphael.

And you live in your mom's house, hoping she dies and you inherit SOMETHING that will allow you to buy your own food, because that degree sure as heck ain't getting it done.
Keep telling the rest of us that whack, strange, and deviant are perfectly normal.
And pray for your mom's death.
That's your best plan.
Keep cheering.

My mother's basement is quite nice for a hoarder. She's upstairs some where I have not seen or heard her in years but her social security checks and my fathers pension checks keep coming.
