Re: Exposing Students to Controversial Writings

The story is absolute trash. And I thought introducing young Christian students to the work of Thomas Hardy was morally questionable.

EDIT: Man, I sound like a real stick in the mud.

In all seriousness, I'm sick of conventional teaching methods, but I can't think of how to remedy the problem. Education is too much like love ; it never works out no matter what you do to keep the fire burning.

"In a less scientific age, he would have been a devil-worshipper, a partaker in the abominations of the Black Mass; or would have given himself to the study and practice of sorcery. His was a religious soul that had failed to find good in the scheme of things; and lacking it, was impelled to make of evil itself an object of secret reverence."

~ Clark Ashton Smith, "The Devotee of Evil"
