I am posting the theses that I will debate with any ASU professor or administrator. I believe these get to the foundational problems with how ASU offers a humanities education. I do not simply want to highlight the many deficits and illegal activities at ASU. I also want to provide a solution.
#3: A neutral education does not require a godless education.
If you survey my Substack posts about ASU, you will see that even recently, ASU was promoting polyamory as a good way to live. This was protected under free speech and neutrality regarding sexual morality. However, you will not see similar events promoting a godly approach to sexuality. Why not? The answer is that those are not “neutral,” and a State University must be neutral. Do you see the contradiction?
Implications:
Neutrality means we do not require a faith statement. It does not mean students should not be taught how to pursue the knowledge of God. By leaving this out, ASU is hindering its students from knowing the highest reality.
A humanities education is not merely practical or about a job. It must teach its students how to think and give them the tools to think about the most important questions they will face. Top on that list is knowing the highest reality. As it is, an ASU student can get a humanities degree and not be able to discuss this question thoughtfully.
Opportunity costs. By promoting this false view of neutrality, ASU loses out on many important learning opportunities. People who believe in God are not made to be welcomed by their humanities professors who are pushing radical agendas and sexual lifestyles.
