I took an anthropology class in college..the instructor started out by telling us it would be taught from the perspective of evolution. If we held a different positionm we had to have "hard" evidence to prove our position..I decided to allow her the position she has and simply vomit back her "theory " as no one can PROVE anything and she knew that

It was almost comical she would teach a chapter and say "we believe that it happened this way..we have no evidence but ..."

So she had set the bar higher for her students than for her own material..

I did not read one book or do one assignment. I simply answered all the tests question with her answers .."We were taught..then XYZ..." So I got my A and she got to believe she was shaping minds..

Good technique...I like that.


"We were taught that..." isn't even dishonest. It's simply a regurgitation routine. What THEY think is their business?

How would you do the same with this guy?
