In college, I was in a geology class and randomly in the middle of a class session, one of the students decided to stand up and start yelling at the professor about creationism and how the earth is only a few thousand years old, all that crap.
You could tell that he thought this was his big moment of “fighting for his faith” and expected some dramatic showdown with the professor in front of the class because he kept glancing around at the students expectantly as he ranted.
Instead, the professor just quietly said something like, “well, I’m not telling you what to believe, I’m just teaching what I know from my profession.” The student said some final snarky line, I can’t remember what exactly, then sat down again and after a few seconds of awkward silence, the professor just started again where he left off lol.
It was super cringe.
I imagine he could hear the Newsboys singing God’s Not Dead in this head and thought he had really done something.
The weird kid drew a picture of him shooting the math teacher nobody liked on the back of his math test; when the teacher saw it she took it really seriously and the weird kid got suspended. A ton of students rallied behind the suspended weirdo and dressed like him in protest, enough that the math teacher ended up quitting bc she felt unsafe
accidentally called my teacher mom in 12th grade.
thankfully, she never listened to anything we said, so she never even noticed.
during a heated argument between my entire class, my teach kept instigating and enjoyed the show. was funny in the moment but seeing the outcome made it clear it wasn’t worth it.
