... And Now The Opposite Of Science

I don’t know about you, but I would have walked out if my valedictorian even offered a benediction, much less if she called her whole class sinners and then threw a religious fit. But walking out that early means I would have missed the part where she fell down. Protesting often means making sacrifices.

My favorite part is near the beginning when she asks God to forgive everyone for committing the gross sin (?!) of going to college. At a college graduation.

I also like how bored and then uncomfortable the dude (dean? principal? president?) behind her starts to get when she keeps going.

Why did she bother going to college, then?

...the hell?? Is that for real? I'm torn between reactions-- fear, disbelief, flat-out what-the-fuckery, slight nausea at the applause she got... and I can't help but wonder if she is, like, having a psychotic break or something. I mean, the first part was just religious blathery, but when she starts sobbing and falling down and all... I have to wonder what's really going on. Either something happened to her recently to really screw with her head, or she's supposed to be on medication and isn't taking it, because that was Not Normal, even by churchy standards. Creepy.
