Well, THAT'S revealing...

I'm going to give you a list of words in the order that it was given to me. Ready?
  • Violence
  • Racism
  • Death
  • Murder
  • Religious faith
  • Sexuality
  • Incest

One of these things is not like the other... (it's "religious faith" in case you hadn't guessed)

That was the list of topics that my English Composition said was "sensitive" but that we would "have to discuss intelligently." This was while he was on the topic of things that would crop up that he said we'd have to deal with. Along with the sh- word and the f- word. And the way he said this stuff was really obvious.
I'm not stupid. I can take a hint.

I assume that at one point or another this semester, I'm going to have to take him up on his word - he said that he stressed argument and that if we disagreed with each other and with him, it was fine to argue. If at some point he openly starts insulting my faith, I'm going to have to answer him back.
