    A religious studies major was barred from Christianity class at Indiana University of Pennsylvania for saying during class that there are only two genders.Lake Ingle, a senior at the university, said he was silenced and punished by IUP Professor Alison Downie for questioning her during a Feb. 28 “Christianity 481: Self, Sin, and Salvation” lecture.After showing a 15-minute TED Talk by transgender ex-pastor Paula Stone Williams discussing the “reality” of “mansplaining,” “sexism from men,” and “male privilege,” the professor asked the women in the class to share their thoughts. When no women in the class said anything, Ingle spoke up, challenging the professor on biology and the gender wage gap. He told the class that the official view of biologists is that there are only two genders.The feminist professor booted him from class and asked him not to come back. She referred him to the public university’s Academic Integrity Board (AIB).

    Indiana University of Pennsylvania student, Lake Ingle, was barred from class for speaking as a man and refuting his professor's claims. (Lake Ingle)

    A religious studies major was barred from Christianity class at Indiana University of Pennsylvania for saying during class that there are only two genders.

    Lake Ingle, a senior at the university, said he was silenced and punished by IUP Professor Alison Downie for questioning her during a Feb. 28 “Christianity 481: Self, Sin, and Salvation” lecture.

    After showing a 15-minute TED Talk by transgender ex-pastor Paula Stone Williams discussing the “reality” of “mansplaining,” “sexism from men,” and “male privilege,” the professor asked the women in the class to share their thoughts. When no women in the class said anything, Ingle spoke up, challenging the professor on biology and the gender wage gap.

    He told the class that the official view of biologists is that there are only two genders.

    The feminist professor booted him from class and asked him not to come back. She referred him to the public university’s Academic Integrity Board (AIB). Ingle needs to complete the class to graduate at the end of the semester.

    “You are barred from attending this class in accordance with the Classroom Disruption policy,” IUP Provost Timothy Moerland told Ingle in a March 2 letter.

    The university was unable to comment due to student education records, and Downie did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

    That's not how it works. You will be contacted by HR, sent to sensitivity training and put on probation for 3 months. They need to show they take it seriously.

    Education is NOT about learning what the world actually is.

    Education is Force. Education is the extension of the rulers to forcibly repeat propaganda. Education is training to accept brainwashing. Education has an expectation to accept any idea presented by the "teacher", the same way the church called Galileo a Heretic for even entertaining the idea that there are more worlds than just the earth and the universe does not revolve around the earth.

    Education has several purposes. The first of which is create a fixed set of reactions to authority. That reaction is to immediately lower ones mental defenses against bull$#@! and blindly accept what ever they are told to be true instead of backing up their statements with practical application and testing themselves instead of the students. Thus, educators dont teach that Math works because "watch this", then give examples. Education is about "math works because Govt says it does". Its quite funny how math doesnt ever work in Economics. Our schools today do not create equality in communities by objectifying what is known to be true.

    Schools are merely Mass Psychology Indoctrination Centers that are apparently intentionally manufacturing conflict over the most basic concepts of knowledge. They are Divisive. They divide those who believe the data against those that do not. They divide males against females, and systematically exclude those who may not fall into either category cleanly, such as hermaphrodites. Schools divide young against old by teaching something completely contradictory. Schools are creating Gender Identity Confusion. Schools teach Dependency. Schools teach to harass and shun any who are not just like them. Schools retard maturity. Schools destroy Individuality. Schools break students spirits that they may be remolded into the imperfect obedient worker, designed to service the Industrial Revolution, which is no longer underway, thus leaving them with no place or purpose. The lessons of schools is the Tests themselves, not the subject matter. Schools prey in a predatory fashion on the natural imperfections of the human psyche to accept programming without challenge. Schools give rigorous tests frequently to create crosstalk interference between System 1 and System 2 of the mind which results in a negative association with learning. Schools intend on stupidifying the smart. Schools destroy Common Sense.

    If youve watched this video, does anyone think that the Purposes described in the video are EXACTLY performed in this particular lesson? Might these purposes apply to EVERY lesson in as many schools as can be had?

    The FAILURE of the United States Government to operate and maintain an

    That is the reason the stated by the professor, could very well be.like all the people that get arrested for "resisting arrest" or charged with assaulting a police officer simply for putting their face where the cops fist is headed.
