Student shares ASU's Sustainability Class

Ain't nothing but mammals . . .

ASU presents as a matter of fact that we are part of nature rather than created in the image of God to rule the creation. ASU openly rejects Genesis 1 and general revelation in this teaching.

When I first started teaching, my colleagues were all enamored with Al Gore. He had published “An Inconvenient Truth,” which was their version of a “Left Behind” apocalypse story. I suspect most of them were raised in dispensational premillennial settings, turned their backs on Christ, but still wanted an “end times” narrative. This fits the bill.

Since then, all of Al Gore’s predictions have been proven false, just like Hal Lindsey's were in “Late Great Planet Earth.” But like the dispensationalists (I love you guys, no hate here), eco-mystics keep grasping for accurate numbers. “We didn’t add the years correctly; we didn’t take into account the carbon emission from Al Gore’s jet used to fly to sustainability conferences; we have better numbers now.” What they need to do is what I recently heard Kirk Cameron did (from a reliable source, but I admit I’m not 100% sure about this). I hear Kirk is now a postmillennialist. Good for him. But all those movies.😬

These secular professors should admit they followed a false prophet and repent to their students. I even heard that one of my colleagues at ASU West told a student he could not talk in class anymore if he doubted Al Gore. Unbelievable. She should call him and apologize, given how badly Al Gore was wrong. “How dare you!” 😂

I saw an enlightening graph today. It showed the increase in China’s pollution output. This pollution completely overshadows anything the United States and Europe do to curtail their own pollution. You can give in to the elites and eat crickets while sitting in the dark, and it won’t matter. Will they share that information in ASU sustainability classes?

As you know from my previous posts, ASU requires all students to take a sustainability class before they graduate. This is the one topic ASU insists every student must know about. From what perspective do they teach sustainability? A student is sharing the course content with me, and it is exactly what you’d expect.

A student sent me screen recordings of the material. I’ve got a whole file of it!

Creepy, right? It is as if someone said, “How can we imitate the feel of 1984?” The students are introduced to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Then, they are asked loaded questions: How will you apply these in your life? What if the student doesn’t agree with these goals because of the philosophical system that comes with them? It won’t matter; the student is required to believe this material.

This video tells them that sustainability goals include ending injustice and inequality. In other words, professors have imported their social justice philosophy into the sustainability class that every student at ASU must take.

Furthermore, students are taught to believe that they are part of the natural system. Well, we are, right? That’s exactly what is debated. Are we part of a natural system, or are we ruling the natural system? ASU teaches the former to every one of its students. But why should we believe that? We are unique and unlike anything in the natural system. We have minds, we can think, and that distinguishes us from animals, plants, and minerals.

We are able to not only act in the world but to think about our acting in the world. We are able to interact with the natural world but also think about that interaction. The very fact that ASU asks its students to reflect on how they engage with sustainability is proof that we are not part of the natural world. We have been given dominion over the natural world because we are created in the image of God with the ability to think and reason.

I’m looking into whether this is just the one class or if it is what every ASU student is taught. If it is only one class, it is troubling. If it is every class, then ASU should be known as the university that denies humans are distinct from nature and instead reduces them to parts of material systems. It is not good friends. Let’s make it public.
