This is so very sad! A student can’t be marked wrong if their answer is based on their religion but scientifically incorrect!

They are robbing religious students by giving them the chance to not get it right and poorly equipping them for the real world. Religious students would end up amassing undeserved academic honours and degrees.

The language of the bill is ambiguous enough for a student to give scientifically wrong answers and not expect to be marked wrong. They just decided to give teachers a new type of headache.

A religion to authenticate my new found belief that the earth is a triangle.

Thankfully Ohio is democratic. When we triangularists get elected, we get to change the curriculum, again.

It means religious students are now permitted to sellect dogmatic options or non-options as answers to academic questions.

For instance, if a question reads... "the homohabilis exited between when and when?". A students can just pen down as follows: "The first man (Adam) was created just over 5,000 years ago according to the Bible's timeline. Hence, homohabilis which scientifically appears to have lived about 2 million years ago, never existed".

Religous student can also ignore scientific questions in exam papers, especially those that renders their precious religious beliefs non-sensical.

Bwahahahahaha! So how come we didn't see anybody on mount Olympus or in the skies hurling bolts?

There is no evidence of any sort of spirit. Mental illness is as far as we know are physical defects in the brain or brain functioning. We never see mental illness in brains functioning within normal parameters.

About Mt. Olympus and bolts, I do not know cos I can't even pretend to understand what you were saying there.


Mental illness you say are physical defects, well maybe in a way. I do not dispute you. How then will you explain the situation where a man who has never suffered any physical harm/trauma whatsoever to the brain is perpetually afraid, he himself can't even tell why he is in constant fear but he knows very well that he is always afraid.

Mount Olympus was said to be the home of the gods. If indeed there were any gods there, it would be confirmed by scaling its height and finding such a home of the gods but that is not the case. Sango is said to be the wielder of thunder and lightning, our trips into the sky should have revealed a god there hurling bolts but nothing of the sort was found. And on and on it goes till gods continuously retreat into ever shrinking pockets of scientific ignorance.

Trauma to the brain is not the only way physical defects occur. There are congenital birth defects, there are developmental defects, there are hormonal imbalances, etc that explain certain recurring symptoms. If you are going to make the point that not all of the brain's complexity has been understood, therefore spirits explain the unexplained, then you are only making my point for me.

That's not my point and you need not assume it is.


Congenital defects could be caused by mother's exposure to harmful substances, bodily shock/trauma, error during delivery, amidst some other physical reasons.

I don't get exactly what you mean by developmental defects.

Hormonal imbalances occurs when there's too much or too little of a hormone in bloodstream. (Even hormonal release is a response to something in itself i.e you don't just release hormones except there's need for it so releasing to much or too little is no case here).

I would love to know so I do not assume, are you of the opinion that there exist nothing Luke the spiritual realm/or plane?

Never said you were making that point, I was the one making the point.

You said a brain needs to have undergone trauma before the onset of mental illness which is not the case. Explaining what those things I mentioned are does not make the case that trauma is necessary for mental iĺlness.

I am of the opinion that no such thing as spirits or a spiritual realm has been convincingly demonstrated to exist.

Where did I say " a brain needs to have undergone trauma before the onset of mental illness" ( I didn't at any point say it was a necessity ). All I did was state an instance which could lead to a defect.

I was citing a scenario of an angry man, and it is well known that anger/rage isn't the normal state of mind of any sane man. When in your very own words you said; Mental illness is as far as we know are physical defects in the brain or brain functioning. We never see mental illness in brains functioning within normal parameters.

That was you categorically saying you and some others (we) know that mental illness are physical defects, which invariably means that a physical treatment/operation is the means by which such wrong can be fixed. If you say that there's nothing as the spiritual realm, what then does a psychologist do to remedy the mind using no physical tool a physician would. Do you not know that words are spirit? You mean to tell me you don't know that words become manifest (become flesh) I can see your POV is apparently against spirits as described by religion.

I do not know words are spirits because such things acquire definition based on who is attempting to explain it. Here's what I want, show me a way in which we can conclusively demonstrate either the presence of spirits or the spiritual realm.

( In truth, I was -regarding the fearful man-. My subject in that scenario was meant to be one with no physical impairment to the brain, not from trauma nor congenital issues. I was speaking of an individual whose physical setup would otherwise be certified as normal if physically examined.)

I do not know words are spirits (Yes they are, can you touch your thoughts, can you see your words, I bet not but you sure can do this things when these words become manifest. Consider the phone you use, it first began as an idea which is intangible before it went on to be a finished usable and touchable product.

This doesn't answer the question. It's like me asking you how do we test air quality and your response being we just need to smell it. Merely smelling the air doesn't validate the air quality as there could the presence of toxic gases that have no smell. We must establish methods that help us to give proper contrast if you are seeking to validate the presence of or lack of any specific thing.

If knowing myself is tantamount to knowing god then I can safely say a spirit god does not exist since all I am is a product of physical processes.

Such a person exist sir, if every mental ailment is characterized (physical attributes) by changes in the brain....shouldn't you ask first what brought about the change/defect? What I deduce from your statement again, is that it must be a physical defect, that's not absolutely correct. There are people with various psychological issues yet with no physical brain impairment.



So spirit is anything you can't physically perceive?

Physically perceived, yes! Spirit is an invisible substance (transcendental-wise), a principle or essence. Consider in athletics, we talk about one athlete being spirited and the other dispirited. Are you able to physically perceive (touch, hold or see with your physical visual sense) this spirit of which we speak?

This is because the Truth only reveals to the one who seek, it isn't one I can give to you beyond the pointer I provide. Seeking to see the Word with the mortal eyes is but folly. The mind is the ultimate laboratory, going as you will and discover.

I repeat again every mental ailment is characterized by changes in the brain either structurally or functionally. You are hooked on the structural defects and forgetting the functional one which of course is also physical in nature. Functional defects are like hormonal and chemical imbalance.

It's a metaphor! They are not actually referring to any type of spirit but merely commenting on the attitudes or behaviour of the athletes. None of which things can be divorced from the physical bodies displaying them.

This is because the Truth only reveals to the one who seek, it isn't one I can give to you beyond the pointer I provide. Seeking to see the Word with the mortal eyes is but folly. The mind is the ultimate laboratory, going as you will and discover.
