<p>^ Well now, let’s not get carried away…my point was bioenergy does exist. And how do you know they don’t teach some of that stuff in this class? It’s a class about bioenergy, after all. Google it, it’s kind of interesting.</p>
<p>A lot of stuff taught in college is crap. Take a Psych class on Sigmund Freud, most of that stuff is bs (modern psychologists agree) and yet it’s still being taught. Same goes with religion classes. You can learn all about how there was a big flood, and some guy took 2 of every animal on earth (except unicorns, they didn’t make it), put them on a big boat, then let them out to reproduce after the flood was over. It’s a theory that rivals evolution in the minds of many 21st century Americans. :)</p>
It’s true, I don’t know exactly what that class is about. If it is some sort of environmental-engineering course, no problem. But I’m getting the impression when it says “bioenergy and natural healing” it is talking about the auras and tarot cards sort of bioenergy.</p>
<p>Somewhat dubious english or psychology classes are one thing. Classes making specifically falsifiable claims are something entirely different.</p>
<p>Is this an actual class for credits, or one of the short-term classes taught by an outside community member? I get mailings from the community college near me, and in addition to classes you can take for credit, there’s all sorts of other things. Generally every term they have classes ranging from how to write scientific proposals to recognizing birds by their call. They’re not a class that gives credits towards a degree, they’re offered for people who have an interest in the subject and would like a way to learn it.</p>
