I do not understand former atheist's

[Airyaman]

Careful...we give Christians a hard time when they trot out the "not a True Christian™" line, we don't want to do the same and say "not a True Atheist™".

I wasn't trotting out a "no true scotsman." When I said that most theists are either confused or lying when they say they were an atheist, that was based on personal experience. Most of the stories I've heard go something like, "I used to be an atheist, and I hated god..."

The same approach is used by Christians when they consider ex-Christians.

I'm sure you were just fucking thrilled with that.

When does she get out of detention?

I was thrilled. I like it when my students stand up for themselves and I really like it when they offer counter points of view. I want my students to critically think and come to their own conclusions.

I often annoy my students when they show me their work and ask, "is this good." I say to them, "You tell me. You know if something is good or not good. When you're at a restaurant do you ask other people to taste your food and tell you if it's good? Show some confidence."

Then most of them say, "I just want to know if I'll get a good grade." Oh how we've brain washed them.

Don't get me started.

I'm not a teacher, but this makes no sense to me. They are asking you if it is good because you are supposed to be a teacher, someone knowledgeable in the subject matter, a person with more personal experience.

Can you let me know where you teach? Want to make sure my son doesn't go to your school.
