Holy crap...

I read this and almost died laughing

I'm not sure I can summarize except to say that the paper abstract presented beyond that link is the reason we don't use Aesop's fables as a basis of fact in Biology research.

Dude, the author is from a religious college. The school
only offers one bachelors degree in the "Liberal arts."

How many majors does New Saint Andrews College offer?
Answer.
Actually, none. New Saint Andrews follows the classical Christian tradition on this important worldview point and refuses to dilute its liberal arts program by either bowing to the vocational-technical idols of pragmatism or confusing vocational specialization with education or wisdom. We believe vocational skills are too important to leave to the academy. We also believe that colleges should never confuse vocational training with a biblically grounded worldview education. New Saint Andrews therefore offers undergraduates a single, time-honored, integrated academic program in the classical liberal arts with two-year and four-year degree options. These two degrees, the Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts and Culture (the four-year degree) and the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts and Culture (the two-year degree), emphasize the languages, literature, philosophy, history, and culture of Western civilization from a reformational Christian worldview.


No wonder we're getting papers like THAT to read.

KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!

Honesty only a little. The rest of the time, I was trying to scrub my brain clean.
