What a future we're allowing to be created in our highly expensive higher education PC liberalist institutions.

I imagine these mental weaklings are veritably catatonic reading the news of Brussels Belgium. ISIS TERRORISTS STRIKE AGAIN!

I could see the objection to religious practice of yoga. After all, we can't pray in Clas (teacher led prayer), this is no different. But just exercise yoga without the spiritual component is fine and a great work out.

Only problem is, "Namaste" isn't a prayer.

Someone tried to compare the parents asking Yoga Spirituality to be banned with what the college kids in the OP did.

There is no comparison.

If we agree that words can't cause pain, then we can also agree that words can't invite demons into your soul, correct?

That or worse (if some have their way).

Bigot! Hater! Phobe! The voices cry out, at ANYONE who dare even think differently or contrary... and then look out if you actually voice or act with a different world view/opinion.

Don't forget "Traitor!"

How so? The topic is about

Emory Students Express Discontent With Administrative Response to Trump Chalkings

Funny. I read the article and it made no mention of yoga.

The relation isn't direct, but there is a relation. There's nothing wrong with tangental points in the discussion.


But back to the OP. I know several college-aged kids, and they all seem to be of the offense can be good mindset. My eldest Bratling likes to wear his shirt that has Anton LaVey's face captioned with DISOBEY.

I find it hard to credit that real kids who are old enough to go to college actually believe any of this safe space, we are in pain nonsense. I figure it's got to be a prank, a piece of performance art, or a living meme.

But then I remember the "get some muscle" moron from Columbia.

In other words, the thread just went off topic....

I understand.

Evidently not. Off topic doesn't mean what you seem to think it means.


These constant asides about the thread being off topic are, however, quite off topic.

Report the thread and let the Mods decide.

All I said is that yoga has nothing to do with the topic.

And I am correct. It has to do with a tangent in progress.....

These students have succumbed to some kind of fascist thinking. Somewhere along the line they've been simultaneously coddled and indoctrinated. Whatever were their parents doing to raise such sorry people? That they can't tolerate being exposed to differing views and adversity is very off-putting. Where's my special head pats and counseling for being subjected to hearing about their kind of foolishness? They pain me and cause me to fear for society.
