So I can envision the poor repressed sods who are forced to go to these schools, but where do they find the jackbooted, fascist thugs who get off on enforcing all these rules?

While at least some of the students may not be wild about going there there are definitely a lot of true believers. Just tell them they're doing the Lord's work and tack on some scriptural references (doesn't really matter what verses you pick) and they'll do pretty much whatever you tell them to.

EvilJoven posted:Because enjoying getting laid an occasional drink or watching a good movie isn't at all terrible but the things she and most other homeschooling nutjob parents put their kids through to keep them from doing these things usually are. Girl I met in college: Had difficulty meeting anyone's eyes Would never initiate conversation (shed just hover around until you noticed and waved her over) Failed the lowest level of english class multiple times because she never wrote an essay in her life See above for math Never read any of those classic novels (Dickenson, Steinbeck, etc.) Had an obsession with neopets and Cardcaptor sakura (children anime from the 90s I think) 70 percent of her personal possessions were about Cardcaptor sakura Spent hours at the library computer doing things on neopets Never held a job during high school or after it Rarely spoke during group conversations, or at all really. She preferred to listen, I think? Was either a genuine asexual or just super inept or uninterested in people in a relationship sort of way Was homeschooled. peanut posted:Rapunzel-style parenting I finished typing up the above in another page before scrolling down and whoa. From what I guessed from this gal's life could be summed up like this. I have no idea what happened to her since.

 There's a group for LGBT students at Bob Jones with the rather hilarious name of BJ Unity. Good for them, but that name is certainly something. http://bjunity.org/ On the other hand this article from 1940 by a former BJU faculty member is pretty great. Let me say again, it's 1940 and they think it's too oppressive. http://visualprime.com/Pub/AmMercury-1940sep-00016:18?View=PDF “Wherever we have the races mixed up in large numbers, we have trouble….These religious liberals are the worst infidels in many ways in the country; and some of them are filling pulpits down South. They do not believe the Bible any longer; so it does not do any good to quote it to them. They have gone over to modernism, and they are leading the white people astray at the same time; and they are leading colored Christians astray. But every good, substantial, Bible-believing, intelligent orthodox Christian can read what the Word of God and know that what is happening in the South now is not of God.” - Bob Jones Sr, reacting on Billy Graham speaking against segregation

We used A Beka books at my school. I knew I recognized that name from somewhere. My favorite was the biology textbook. Instead of having an entire chapter on evolution like a normal highschool biology book, it just had a single little sidebox explaining what Noah's ark was. What's up with Pensacola and crazy fundies anyway? My science teacher was from there, PCC is there, Dinosaur Adventure Land was there. I've never been to Pensacola but it sounds pretty lovely.

Cats are evil, demonic creatures. To avoid even the appearance of tolerating witchcraft and/or other dark arts no cats are permitted on PCC campus, whether in physical or artistic form.
