the term "American Taliban" is a bit scary, but i agree if there are any, they might as well be republicans.

<p>I'm a liberal and all, but is that really neccessary? :confused: There are plenty of political threads here, no need to drag down this one with ignorant remarks like that.</p>
<p>Republicans are more comparable to Talibans than liberals; but I have no intention of starting a crazy debate.</p>
<p>"Well, while we're busy stereotyping political parties shouldn't you be smoking marijuana and fathering illegitimate children like all Democrats do?"</p>
<p>go read your bible...</p>
<p>God bless us all........:)</p>

<p>Neither of the major political parties can compare to anything like the Taliban. Unfortunately, people with a "Christian Conservative" type mentality are usually very easily led and the Republicans have mastered the art of manipulating them to their advantage while only rarely really letting them have their way. The carrot on the end of the stick is legislating their sense of morality on others and the 'Pubs are always introducing legislation and grandstanding on "moral issues" that they know won't pass to keep them in their fold. Every once in awhile they'll throw them a bone when it jibes with corporate interests, but most Republican politicians couldn't give less of a damn about gay marriage, abortion, etc. One of these days, I suppose the majority of "Christian Conservatives" will finally realize they're being played and form their own minority party.</p>
<p>I wish them good luck and will definitely donate them some money to advertize THE Bible. We're gonna work together to brainwash and torture little children to make them believe what we believe. anyone joining me? :)</p>

<p>I've heard of finlandia university before. One of old teachers used to teacher there. It's a very small college in the middle of nowhere.</p>
<p>What, no one's mentioned the University of Phoenix-Online yet? ;)</p>
<p>Pensacola Christian is up there simply because of the post-graduation experiences of their students. Many of their nursing graduates report they can't even get certified or get jobs because they learned nothing. It has nothing to do with religion -- it has to do with them not teaching you anything.</p>
<p>Savannah College of Art & Design has to be on there due to the creepy, cult-like atmosphere and the various allegations of serious crimes at the hands of the directions. I can say as someone who's spent time on campus and who's had a relative attend and graduate that SCAD is one messed-up institution. If you or any of your children, friends, family members, or anyone else know who even remotely consider that school, please steer them away as quickly as possible. <a href="http://www.scad-and-us.info/%5B/url%5D">http://www.scad-and-us.info/</a> and <a href="http://www.scad.info/%5B/url%5D">http://www.scad.info/</a> are good starting points, though it doesn't get into the surveillance activities or potential crimes too much. That place is honestly /scary/.</p>
<p>Ah, here's the article I was looking for: <a href="http://www.scad.info/Sinister%20Design%2001.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.scad.info/Sinister%20Design%2001.html</a></p>
<p>My relative moved out of Savannah entirely just to get away from that place...</p>
<p>"Haha! Dang. I forgot about Pensacola Christian College. I actually lived near there at one point. Here's a link to an information site that was apparently set up by former students though it looks like most of the testimonials have been removed. I remember seeing them last year and they were per-itty scary! Here are the Student Reviews."</p>
<p>I read those reviews and they are scary...Bob Jones is also one of the worst if you want personal freedom to just live as you would like to!</p>
<p>I wonder what generalizations there are for Libertarians;)</p>
<p>I am an agnostic, Indian, Libertarian with a 1490 SAT and 3.9GPA. Do I have a chance at BJU?</p>
<p>"Academically, PCC is an excellent school. Some worry about the school not being accrediated, but neither are some Ivy League schools."</p>
<p>Can someone remind me which of the Ivy League schools aren't acrredited?? By the way, the quote is from student Voice</p>
<p>the worst school in the country is
THE ohio state "university"</p>
<p>In the O.C. re-run last night they featured some BJU students. It was pretty funny :p</p>
<p>I think that Bob Jones University is the worst school in the country. I can't believe that places like that still exist in today's modern society.</p>
<p>nirvanarageatm: why do you say that of OSU, is it really that bad?</p>
<p>^ He's from Michigan... and understandably bitter after last November.</p>
<p>He will continue to be bitter after this year also.</p>
<p>I just went to the BJU website to see how the campus looked (didn't find any pictures of the outside campus, but I saw the insides of the building and the people were dressed like it was the early nineties and and it kinda just looked like an office building); anyway, I watched one of the videos for prospective students and I only saw one minority throughout the whole video. I think he was quite possibly the only minority at the school.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, that's true at many colleges, torrestowers. I've received promotional materials from schools like Dickinson and Connecticut College, for example, that contain nothing but white students in tan pants and button-ups.</p>
