"'God ain't good all of the time. In fact, sometimes, God is not for us," Anthea Butler, of the University of Pennsylvania's Department of Religious Studies, wrote Monday in a blog post on ReligionDispatches.org. "As a black woman in [a] nation that has taken too many pains to remind me that I am not a white man, and am not capable of taking care of my reproductive rights, or my voting rights, I know that this American god ain't my god." Then she dropped the bomb: "As a matter of fact, I think he's a white racist god with a problem." The University of Pennsylvania has declined to comment on Butler's revelation of God's race and personal, uh, foibles."

Just another professor trying to get attention and be relevant in today's society.
Wonder if she will say that the black Baptist God, or the Islamic God, is a black or brown racist?

Gives me more fodder for my annual April 1 "Why I Hate Penn" thread.
Although every Ivy school has at least one of these idiots on its faculty.

You never hear directional school prof's talk like this. Bush, Obama, Harvard MBA's fucking up the economy...This is just further evidence that the Ivies are the most over-rated learning centers in the nation.

Point taken. Should have said "at least one of these idiots
in every department on its faculty," including engineering, Romance Languages, Statistics and Music.

Oh.

Never mind.

No she's not! There is no such being. Someone who doesn't exist can't be a racist.
