SAVED BY CHURCH AND GOD. SAVED BY ACADEMIA AND STATE. There isn’t any difference

SAVED BY CHURCH AND GOD. SAVED BY ACADEMIA AND STATE.

There isn’t any difference you know.

Universities were extensions of the church, and with the decline of the church, the university has replaced the church as the source of civic religion, and the promise of prosperity.

But, going to college doesn’t, it turns out, teach you much. It just sorts us into how much hard work we can adapt to in any given period of time.

And it turns out that the church didn’t save you, and academia didn’t save you.

We rebelled against the little slips of paper the church gave out. We are rebelling against the little slips of paper academia has given out.

Why is it that the church doesn’t warranty your access to heaven, or academia your access to prosperity?

If you could take them to court like any other merchant, what would change in both church (premodern religion) and academia (the modern and postmodern religion)?

If someone will not warrant their goods, what does that say about them and their goods?

Fraud is fraud.
