Class and crass

A kind of rankings you won’t see in The Princeton Review.  Oh, wait.  This is from The Princeton Review.

  1. I’ve heard that GA Tech ranked pretty high on the least happy students scoring.

    I would venture to guess that my alma mater (LeTourneau) would have scored pretty high on the least beautiful campus and bad food test. Nothing like sheet metal buildings and old army barracks to kill the architectural splendor of a campus.

  2. When I was at Purdue, they made a heroic effort to be a pretty campus, but just doesn’t have the setting for it. Red brick buildings from here to there. But it is a good school. Ranked in the low end for food, but the service was good.
    They have a pretty president!

    And there’s something wrong with being stone cold sober?

    No. There is nothing wrong with being cold stone sober.

    However, if someone is stone cold sober AND believes that Joseph Smith was really visited by an angel who brought him tablets of gold, etc., etc. I would prefer to hear that that person was drunk as could be.

    [This comment is disrepectful to members of the church of Latter Day Saints, and probably a violation of Terms of Service. By the way, is there a web site like this for Mormons, where they talk about Christians? Serious question. I need new ground to pester. What about Catholics? Muslims? Hindus? Buddhists? There have to be new frontiers for a Radical Agnostic. I’m running out of things to say to conservative Protestants.]

  5. Good one, RN. Actually, I would think that the person you reference would be using something stronger than alcohol. Oh, and if you want a new frontier, how about liberal Protestants?

  6. Sure, Peter. Is there a web site or group blog for liberal Protestants?

    One of my daughter’s best friends is a liberal female Anglican minister. However, I don’t pester people I know personally on religious matters. (I personally know both liberal and conservative Protestants and liberal and conservative Catholics. I also know Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists, and a few members of “out there” sects and obscure and unusual religions such as Sikhs.

    If language is not a problem, I will pester any or all appropriate web sites.
