You were deeply lost in a daydream right in the middle of Bible class when – oh no! The professor is calling your name to answer a question about… something. Here are the ten best things to say if you find yourself in this terrible situation:
-
“Hm, that reminds me of another question. What’s the best way to understand the Trinity?”: The professor will be unable to resist.
-
“I’m sorry, I was praying for someone’s eternal soul. Can you repeat the question?”: A get-out-of-jail-free card.
-
“I think I might be gay”: Pretty bold, but foolproof in getting out of a question.
-
“Great question. I wonder what the Council of Trent would have said?”: When in doubt, punt to the Council.
-
“Whoa, look out the window, is that a Nephilim?”: Situation handled.
-
“I suppose it comes back to whether one accepts the historical critical hermeneutical lens as proffered by Norman Cantor”: Everyone will be forced to pretend they understood what you just said.
-
“Jesus”: When all else fails, go with the tried-and-true.
Don’t sweat the Bible class daydreaming. Just try any one of these, and you’ll be good to go.
AI won’t take these jobs!
