Why God Never Received Tenure at a University


  1. Because he had only one major publication.
  2. And it was in Hebrew.
  3. And it had no cited references.
  4. And it wasn't published in a refereed journal or even submitted for peer review.
  5. And some even doubt he wrote it himself.
  6. It may be true that he created the world but what has he done since?
  7. The scientific community has had a very rough time trying to replicate his results.
  8. He rarely came to class, just told students to read the book.
  9. He expelled his first two students for learning.
  10. Although there were only ten requirements, most students failed his tests.
  11. His office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountain top.

You can't be real either

Anyway, I'd love to hear you explain why God isn't real, rather than you just not believing his existence is possible and thus claiming that your belief is the actual truth. Ready? Set? Go!

I think it refers to the Old Testament... I just nicked it from a page with academic jokes and, being a joke, there was no further explanation

God isn't meant to be understood within our physical space-time universe. God is scientifically undetectable, uncommunicable, unfalsifiable...
