I keep finding myself wondering why I never learned how to teach reading and writing in my teacher training program. I jotted down some thoughts here. 👇🏼

Lyon : à Feyzin, un père d’élève menace un professeur en faisant référence à Samuel Paty «Face à la gravité de ces déclarations, plusieurs professeurs ont décidé de se mettre en grève et ont manifesté devant l’établissement, banderoles déployées» europe1.fr/politique/lyon…

Il faut se parler... «À l’approche d’échéances politiques importantes, où les débats sur l’inclusion, la laïcité, la langue et l’avenir institutionnel du Québec refont surface, cette exigence de dialogue devient nécessaire.» ledevoir.com/opinion/idees/…

“ L’abrogation de l’exemption religieuse ne constitue pas une atteinte à la liberté d’expression, mais plutôt une mise en cohérence du droit avec les principes d’égalité, de neutralité de l’État et de responsabilité juridique uniforme.” Voici pourquoi : lapresse.ca/dialogue/opini…

🚨NEW: This guy got a PhD for interviewing 8 music therapy professors chosen through "purposive expert sampling" (i.e., completely non-random) and cramming as many woke buzzwords as possible into his dissertation title before reaching the character limit.

Steven Pinker@sapinker·
From THE GOD DEBATE: Me: The more religious the society, the worse the problems are. And if you don't believe it, consider some of the world's most irreligious societies, like Norway, Netherlands, and New Zealand. They're pretty nice places to live. Now consider some of the world's most religious countries, like Afghanistan and Congo. Those are places that people want to get out of. This is also true in a comparison across American states. The more religious, the more dysfunctional. Ross Douthat (@DouthatNYT): What we should wish as Americans is to be neither Afghanistan nor Scandinavia, but to be the United States of America, which as a culture has always done an incredible job of balancing some of the absolute, definite benefits of modernity, including religious toleration, a respect for pluralism, a refusal to simply sort of impose the totality of one religion's theological doctrines on society with an abundant faith in a cosmic purpose for the human race. And obviously there are downsides to religious intensity. Those downsides are often manifested in zealous intolerance. There are also serious downsides to religious indifference, which are often manifested in anomie, drift, and despair. And it is simply the case that if you look across the developed world today, there is a strong correlation between secularization and a kind of loss of faith in human purpose and the human future, manifested most starkly in the declining birth rates that make it extremely unlikely that Dr. Pinker's predictions about the inevitable triumph of secularism and humanism over religion will come to pass, because the secularists and humanists don't seem to be making the basic choices that would enable the continuation of the human race.

After I had finished my lecture earlier today to Canadian industry leaders, I was approached by the chancellor of a Canadian university who shared his appreciation of my work and his frustration with the lunacy. Apparently not all individuals at Canadian universities are fully parasitized. I'll take the win!
