An actual religion class in a "secular" university type environment is hugely interesting. A christian propaganda class taught at a christian school is what I'm talking about. Damn straight I'd never pass since I would be constantly calling out all the fallacies in christianity which they would never accept.
I am very well informed on most mainstream religions. I've read the bible, know plenty of things about quran, buddhism, etc. I actually find taoism to be very interesting since it has many very critical life lessons in it's teachings although I'd never subscribe to the religion.
My point in that post was that it was a christian school that was teaching christianity. Which I would just constantly make fun of because it's terrible (do you support slavery? Cause the bible does). I could never pass their class since I would never be able to support their propaganda which is just false.
That's easy as fuck, just follow their view, I have university professors that indirectly impose their doctrine on law, basically if they are a communist you must agree, if they are nationalists you must agree, if you think differently than them even if you support a major doctrine with lots of arguments behind it they fail you. That's one of the basis to survive in college. Of course some professors are rational and do not impose their views on others. WHen this happens just pretend you follow their ideology, yes it's hypocritical but if I didn't do that I'd probably have failed half my first year and about 3/4 of my second year in law school
