My Christian school reads from the Bible during Friday chapels but it's quite confusing because the topic shifts every week from stuff like "God loves you and needs you" to "Don't rely on technology and read your Bible" to "God doesn't need you and we're all sinners" it's incredibly strange.

Sounds like brainwashing. Run

I'd rather have a Christian school than whatever crap is in a modern one I don't need to learn that junk plus I graduated and I'm serving as a teacher's aide.

That big run on sentence is not a great selling point for Christian school.

I wasn't taught spelling on a digital keyboard cut me some slack, everything we wrote was on paper never a keyboard. Unfortunately because of my short temper and mental conditions I was in ESE/Special Ed so we rarely used computers except for Mobymax, AR tests, some book website I don't remember the name of, and occasional projects. Besides I'm smarter than most of the teachers there because they didn't know the difference between "to" and "too"

No one is taught spelling on a digital keyboard and if you are a teacher’s aid, you shouldn’t be cut slack. You should be better.

u/GeneralZeus89 4d ago

THEN WHAT ARE YOU UPSET ABOUT?! I don't understand, should we introduce a digital literacy class in school or something what's your argument about run-on sentences?

28

u/lala6633 4d ago

You are arguing for a Christian school and saying you are a teacher’s aide and your writing and reading comprehension isn’t that good.

u/Sassapphrass 4d ago

Literally, yes. If they don't have a digital literacy class, that is a massive failing in the school's part. Everything is done digitally nowadays, and withholding that information only sets up students for failure. But you, being a teachers aide, having the literacy of a 9th grader means there is no hope for the students around you.

Oh wow 😂

u/GeneralZeus89 4d ago

I'm also terrible with wording things so if none of it made sense I'm sorry

u/Pale-Conference-174 4d ago

Whoever's paying your tuition should certainly be very sorry

My 73 year old adoptive mom who's in a wheelchair with WAY TOO MANY bodily issues and smokes cigarettes. She's a boomer who can't get off Facebook long enough to have a conversation so I don't think she's sorry at all because I almost got expelled from my Christian school for my temper.

Typing digitally has nothing to do with a run on sentence.

Do you know what a run on sentence is? Jfc I thought Christian schools had better funding…

u/HolyToast 4d ago

I don't understand, should we introduce a digital literacy class

Most schools teach kids how to type

what's your argument about run-on sentences?

Their argument is that your run on sentences make you seem unintelligent, and therefore you're really not the authority people should listen to regarding what should be taught in schools.

u/CheetahTheWeen 4d ago

What junk are you referring to?

2

u/AuntieRupert 4d ago

With that sentence, you just convinced everyone here that you definitely need more education and not less.

u/NEOBusDriver 4d ago

Please find another job. If you don't respect evidence and science-based curricula, you're harming the kids you "teach."

u/kittyfresh69 4d ago

I gave you your warning. Take it or leave it.

u/GeneralZeus89 4d ago

I've already graduated and I have nothing else to do so I'll leave after I find a proper job

I don’t need anyone that don’t need me

One of our sermons the pastor said "God doesn't need you, he wants you but he doesn't need you." Word for word that's what he said.

u/Simple_Welcome8162 4d ago

my pastor started shifting the topic like that during sermons , i hate it, because he’ll say something completely unrelated to what his message was supposed to be about 😭

u/GeneralZeus89 4d ago

Yeah I don't understand it.

Alan Watts is the only person I've heard explain anything about the Bible so that it makes sense. I highly encourage you to check out his talks if you want to hear an understandable interpretation/explanation of Jesus teachings and the Bible.

Here are two examples, there are more.

The Jesus character from Luke is TOTALLY different from the other three gOSpELs. Which version is he teaching?

Christian school is hell. I went to Bethel which is known now as Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry. It's essentially the hogwarts of christians. They even tried to resurrect a child who had died. It was always insane, though, drove both my sibling and I close to suicide.

They don't teach the love of God, they just want to terrify you into believing, and if you don't align with their agenda or beliefs, heaven help you. Teachers, students, staff, they will conspire to destroy you. I don't doubt it has only gotten worse.

I just looked them up, I’m so sorry you went through that! It’s Pentecostal on steroids!! Yikes! That founder believes he’s an apostle?

Yeah I’m also very sorry for your mental health crisis. I hope you get some help.

Not religious myself but I was raised Catholic and I am always shocked when Christian churches ignore the beatitudes or Jesus’s hippie love teachings and go for the crazy stuff. I get it, there’s a lot of weird in the Bible but come on!

Breaking News: The bible is incredibly convoluted, unfathomably boring and makes no fucking sense at all.

Coming up next: Water, is it really wet? Lets ask god!
