"I hope that doesn't come back to haunt me." *shudder*

In a discussion of mythology in class today, I made an offhand reference to "bible myths".  Some students seemed a little shocked.

Is this the sort of thing that can get me fired or burned at the stake?

It's a good thing that you don't live anywhere in the Bible Belt, but since you're in CA, you might get a comment from a single annoyed parent, but I very much doubt anything more than that.

Kids these days just don’t hear the truth about Ginnungagap in school like they ought to. I blame society.

I once dated a graduate student who was in religious studies; she was a Wiccan. She said that when taking a class dealing with the Bible, it was interesting to see which people hesitated before taking a highlighter to the book.

Me, I want to see the LOLCat Bible duke it out with the Conservapedia Bible.

You don't live in a Bible state, I hope. Because there it COULD backfire.

Otherwise, you'll just be shocking a couple of clueless.

Oh, and

BURN THE HERETIC! BURN HER!

It depends. Do you weigh the same as a duck?
