This seems too stupid to actually be real; Unfortunately, it’s not, and I have too much faith in people, well, immoral religious people, I should say. Please don’t assume that my last sentence means I feel all religious people are immoral, it simply means I feel the religious leaders at this school are immoral. And trust me, I don’t need to know much else about their morals or ethics outside of this course listing, because the simple fact they titled a course in this manner is proof enough for how they must act.

Hey Baylor University students! There’s no better time to fulfill your sociology credit than now because come Spring 2012 the Christian school will offer “Homosexuality as Gateway Drug,” a course that we assume will discuss how gayness leads to being awesome. Or not…

Hearing the original class title we assumed it would teach how homosexuality leads to using drugs like poppers and ABBA. Or about how tolerance towards homosexuals leads to tolerance of other minorities. Or it could just be a boring course with tons of dry reading. We called the school for a clearer course description; no response.

But apparently, the school quietly changed the course title to Family Studies after a bunch of blogs started blabbing about it.
