The instructor noted that they failed the psych major on the grounds that she neglected to address the prompt and relied more on “personal ideology” than “empirical evidence.”

I’ve read the essay. It lacked (to put it kindly) academic merit. It was not supposed to be a paper on apologetics. The very least she should have done if she wanted to base her reaction to the source material on Scripture was to include verses on gender to show how this has anchored society’s perception on there being a clear division of two (not 2 not 20 not 50) genders.

The professor’s answer did show her personal bias however the essay should not have been given a passing grade because it did indeed fail to provide sources. However, there was one very important point made in that reply and that is the unfortunate fact that the social sciences now all agree (wrongly) that gender is not fixed or binary. Which means if the student is majoring in any of those sciences she has chosen the wrong uni to attend because any defense against that idea whether religion based or not will be met with either disdain or outright hostility. It will also mean an uphill battle when she is graduated to put her beliefs into active practice.

She needs to find a college that affirms her values while holding her to academic standards.

Maybe 'satanic' is a better adjective to use than 'demonic' but that deserves maybe a 1% lower mark, not a failing grade.

It would be interesting to know how many more qualified candidates were passed over in order to hire this trans instructor.

Why do higher learning institutions employ mentally unstable instructors?
