A college course especially for Renegade

[morninggirl5]

This says something about our education system, I'm just afraid to ponder what it is exactly.

-- It won't be taught by the Simpsons' evangelical neighbor, Ned Flanders, but a philosophy class being added to Siena Heights University's curriculum will be based on the popular animated TV series.

This winter, the university is offering a two-credit class on how religion and philosophy are part of popular culture, including "The Simpsons."

Readings will include "The Simpsons and Philosophy: The D'oh! of Homer" by William Irwin, and "The Gospel According to The Simpsons: The Spiritual Life of the Most Animated Family."

"Me fail English? That's unpossible."

Now that's the kind of class that I'll be majoring in if I ever go to college. Gotta wonder who they call up for giving guest lectures to the class.

You've got to wonder what major it leads to...

Hmm... Well.. watching the simpsons involves a lot of sitting around on your ass without thinking much, and laughing at the misfortunes of others....

Sounds like managerial training to me.
