You’re the epitome of a pseudo intellectual. You think you’re learned with valued and informed opinions. But at the end of the day, you don’t know fuck all about what you’re talking about. Donations that come ND’s way are just like every other university out there. They come from alumni or families of alumni. I knew very few Catholics that make a donation to Notre Dame. Most Catholics keep their charity money locally in parishes or is directed towards the less fortunate. “Earn their way”? Bwahahaha! You’re talking about public grant money that is available to them just by the nature of being a land grant institution that the government chooses to subsidize. It’s delusional to think that is earned 100% much of that is being propped up by a system that’s been in place that has little to do with the quality of Minnesota. Hey look at that! It’s kind of like Big Ten membership. No one gives a fuck about Minnesota sports. But they ride the coattails of what Michigan OSU PSU etc have built with their brands at the negotiating table like little Communists. Sure some are better than others but they all get equal shares. “Earn their way” hahaha. You say some stupid and funny shit but this nonsense stands out amongst a sea of stupid shit you say.
So the point still stands…you are doing some academic masturbation for a school that you never attended. This raises another question. Are you a beta cuck? Do you enjoy watching another man take your wife and give her the pleasure you can not? Do you regularly live vicariously through the experiences of others?
You are funny. I have 2 daughters, that I know of.
How old are you?
What, you think I care that much? lol Dude, just tell me or don't, I don't give a fuck, tbh. I'll just assume you are a stupid dumb millenial at best.
Jealous are you?
Not in the least.
Hate of a college is a big step. Wonder what ND ever did to you, other than possibly rejecting you application.
It's what ND did to Catholicism and to America that bothers me most. If all I cared about was college football I could adore ND, as their history is beyond compare. But colleges/universities are far more than their football programs. And Notre Dame has done great harm to Christianity and to America and the whole world.
No more than the vast majority of colleges that have shifted so far to the left that some don't even allow conservative views to be presented on campus (ND included). The need for "safe spaces" is such a stupid and ignorant position. Talk about safe spaces to any combat veteran and they will laugh in your face.
Well, I agree that the vast majority of colleges have shifted way too far to the left, including Minnesota, and so it may seem like I am being unfair when criticizing Notre Dame as I do, but two things, UMn is a public university and Leftists make up a large percentage of the population of Minnesota, where as Notre Dame is supposed to be, not only "a" Catholic University, but it's President has claimed it's "the most catholic university", so I don't think as a Christian that it's wrong for me to hold Notre Dame to a higher standard.
You keep zeroing on the fact that ND is a Catholic school. I grew up Catholic, went to Catholic grade and high schools but by the time I started college I already had no use for any religion. My reasons are many, but I will state one. Churches of all denominations seem to always being asking members to pray for a cure (insert your favorite disease). Must not be praying hard enough since according to their beliefs God created everything and that would include said disease. If God wanted to get rid of the disease he would.
We definitely don't agree about everything, but we do agree about a lot of things. Those last 2 sentences I absolutely agree with. The stuff about the Catholic hierarchy supporting Socialism rings very true and that baffles me, it doesn't make sense, especially in light of what you ended that thought with, that they always end up finding themselves on the outside looking in. And you make a great point about the praying for the dearly departed thing. I know that way back in the day Catholics used to teach or believe or maybe they just sold the idea of purgatory, and that you could pray or pay for your relatives to get out of purgatory and into heaven. Always figured that just a total scam. Also, the whole thing about people praying for cures and/or for people to heal and such, I get your point. I can see and understand where most of your doubts about religion/Christianity come from and I don't fault you for having them. I have some very particular and personal things that have led me to still believe and if you are curious, I can tell you sometime, if I don't get banned from this site first, lol. I am trying to stay on topic in threads but my haters try hard to get me to go off topic. They are obsessed, it's frustrating to others, to me I think it's both hilarious and sad. I'd bet that all of them are Leftists or at least left leaning politically, and I think it's telling that so many Leftists won't admit to being Leftists or are so unaware that they possibly don't even realize it?
When my daughter was picking schools in 2000, I wanted her to go to ND. They did not have her desired major at the time (Biomedical Engineering) and she went to Washington University in St. Louis.
They also beat Ohio State 52-24 in 2020 so yeah that Alabama team was smoking everyone.
