University offers 'Simpsons' as Philosophy Class

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-you-just-can't-make-up dept.

joestump98 writes "I ran accross a story at CNN that says a local Michigan college, Siena Heights, is offering a philosophy class on our favorite cartoon - The Simpsons. The Catholic school says the class is about religion and philosphy in popular culture." And I thought Rocks for Jocks was a hilarious concept in wasting a college education. That said, I'd take that class. Have to make sure to watch my homework tonight.

    A *SIMPSONS* philosophy class? Really, people! Will this insanity never end?!

    Now an X-Files or Star Trek one... That would be the height of human endeavour... But I probably shouldn't get into that. :D
