Critics Oppose ‘Woke’ Move by UK University
Warning college students about the content of Scripture is a move by “woke warriors,” according to the Daily Mail. Podcaster Mark Lambert agreed, calling the trigger warnings “typical of the culture that wants to sexualize our children and have drag queens and all this kind of stuff, and they want to censor the Bible.”
The Bible “built our civilization,” Lambert continued, adding that the warnings aren’t “education” but rather “a superficial evasion that undermines the very purpose of academia.”
In recent years, other organizations—including the U.K. government itself—have flagged some classic works as potentially distressing and as possible outlets for indoctrinating terrorists. Authors on those lists range from Chaucer and Shakespeare to C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien.
