Between A Scholarship and A Hard Place
#13
RE: Between A Scholarship and A Hard Place
Why not submit the paper without reference to the faith itself.

If I was catholic, I could talk about the sense of family, community, the effect of moral principles etc etc. You can talk about a lot of positive things without once referring to the supernatural bits you don't believe in.
That way you don't have to be actively dishonest.
Self-authenticating private evidence is useless, because it is indistinguishable from the illusion of it. ― Kel, Kelosophy Blog

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic.
