Indiana University (IU) is teaching students that they are inherently "oppressors" because of their race, sex and religion, documents show. According to the school’s website, the course "Understanding Diversity in a Pluralistic Society" prompts students to examine "theories and models" in order to "enhance understanding of our diverse society."The course "provides content about differences and similarities in the experiences, needs, and beliefs of selected minority groups and their relation to the majority group."

Indiana University? NO. Indiana Indoctrination Center is more accurate.

This is pure nonsense, of course. During any given era in history, most countries of the world have been oppressors when they had the riches, technology and the military strength to do it. Britain, France, Spain, Germany, Greece, Rome, Persia, Babylonia, and let's not forget the Huns and the followers of Mohammed everywhere. All of them thought at one time or another that they should rule the world and some still do. Diversity is nothing but feel-good psychological garbage invented by American academia and has failed miserably during its relatively short period of existence.

#3, I feel your pain. Indiana University turned my step son into a marxist, vegan, homosexual during his six year fantasy tour in Bloomington.
I hope our new Governor Braun will take a fire hose to the place.

This was formerly known as prejudice and was rightfully condemned by rational people.

A simpler trustworthy explanation is "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God."
Answer?
Jesus is LORD.

#2, not to mention what the various tribes of Africa did and are still doing to each other. And what the various tribes of Indians in North America did to each other. And what the various tribes in every populated part of the planet did to each other.

"Diversity" used to be a common, useful word, as in diversity of wildlife etc. Now I get angry every time I hear it. It's become a vile word to me.

The only way to respond to this is:
Yep.
And I like it.
And I'm going to continue doing it.
What are you going to do about it.
Just. Like. They. Are. Doing. To. You.

People are inherently "bad" because of our sin nature, inherited at birth from the first man, Adam.
The Bible (always) puts it best:
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Jeremiah 17:9 (KJV)

If your bottom line is that people are inherently oppressors, you HAVE no “understanding of our diverse society.”

FTA: "...they are inherently "oppressors" because of their race, sex and religion,..."
So they are INHERENTLY oppressors because of:
a nebulous term that can't be defined or quantified
an inherent trait whose behaviors are very much subject to societal pressures
a belief system that is very open proselytization.
This is why I decided not to go back to college on retirement. I am no longer in awe of people with letters after their names.

Is this a philosophy or a theological course? Human nature is to oppress others which the source of all humanity’s problems. Everybody knows this except liberals teachers who oppress other opinions they disagree with.
