Christian OU student flunked after calling gender ideology 'demonic'
By Jon Brown, Christian Post Reporter Wednesday, December 03, 2025
A Christian pre-med student has gone viral in recent days for filing a religious discrimination complaint with the University of Oklahoma after a trans-identified teaching assistant allegedly flunked her for an essay stating that gender ideology is "demonic."
Samantha Fulnecky, a junior at the University of Oklahoma who is majoring in psychology, received a zero out of 25 for a 650-word opinion essay she was told to write in her "Lifespan Development" class in response to an article about social gender expectations, according to The Oklahoman.
According to a copy of her essay published by the local outlet, Fulnecky asserted that God created two distinct genders with different roles, and that the idea of changing one's gender is a satanic assault against that design.
"I strongly disagree with the idea from the article that encouraging acceptance of diverse gender expressions could improve students' confidence," she wrote. "Society pushing the lie that there are multiple genders and everyone should be what they want to be is demonic and severely harms American youth."
Graduate teaching assistant William "Mel" Curth, who uses "she/they" pronouns, took apparent offense at Fulnecky's claims in the essay, and was especially upset at her use of the word "demonic" to describe gender ideology.
"To call an entire group of people 'demonic' is highly offensive, especially a minoritized population," Curth reportedly wrote in an online grading portal.
"Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs, but instead I am deducting point [sic] for you posting a reaction paper that does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive," Curth also said.
"I implore you [to] apply some more perspective and empathy in your work," Curth added.

Brief introduction to the foundation of the AIDLR
History of the Association
Brief introduction to the foundation of the AIDLR
1. Its founder
Jean Nussbaum, a French physician of Swiss origin, founded the International Association for the Defense of Religious Liberty, abbreviated as A.I.D.L.R., in Paris, in 1946. His wish was to give a legal basis to the actions he had been taking on behalf of religious liberty, since the end of World War I.
Jean Nussbaum, the founder.
Jean Nussbaum was born in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, on November 24, 1888. He had a medical practice in Chamonix, France, when World War I broke out. Serbia, plagued by a strong outbreak of typhus from the very beginning of hostilities, made a desperate appeal to foreign countries to secure the help of physicians. Jean Nussbaum volunteered and was appointed to the hospital of Nis, Serbia, near the end of 1914. The management of the hospital gave him a young Serbian nurse, Milanka Zaritch, as an assistant and interpreter. Soon after their first meeting, she became the superintendent of the hospital.
They married in the fall of 1915. Milanka Zaritch was the niece of Voyislav Marinkovic, who later became the prime minister of the Serbian government. This family link soon introduced Dr Jean Nussbaum into the diplomatic and international circles.
While he was in Serbia, circumstances led Jean Nussbaum to an intervention with an officer of the Serbian army, to allow an Austrian prisoner of war, appointed to serve in the Nis hospital, to practice the principles of his faith. Out of lack of tact and narrow-mindedness, this prisoner had placed himself in a situation which might have cost him his life by refusing, as an enemy prisoner and in time of war, to obey orders. This event may have been instrumental in the awakening of the interest Jean Nussbaum was taking in the promotion and defense of liberty of conscience and religion for the rest of his life.

Pope Leo XIV doubles down on insistence for 2-state solution to resolve Israeli-Palestinian conflict

ABOARD THE PAPAL PLANE — Pope Leo XIV doubled down Sunday on the Holy See’s insistence on a two-state solution to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying in his first airborne news conference that it was the “only solution” that could guarantee justice for both sides.
Leo made the comments as he flew from Istanbul to Beirut for the second and final leg of his maiden voyage as pope. Though Leo has been fielding journalists’ questions at informal gatherings at his country house, the brief encounter marked his first news conference as pope and followed the tradition of his predecessors of using his foreign trips to engage with the media.
Because of the short flight, the news conference was limited to two questions from Turkish journalists. When Leo returns to Rome on Tuesday, the encounter will presumably be longer.

The Inevitable Rabbit Hole: Countering Satan’s Impact on Young People Through Social Media
The Inevitable Rabbit Hole: Countering Satan’s Impact on Young People Through Social Media
by Christian Standard | 3 July, 2025
By Ricky Altmiller
“Social media. It’s just a tool, right? It is not bad in and of itself. The issue is how you use it.” But what if social media and cultural influences are having a greater impact than we realize?
We have all been there. Seconds turn into minutes, minutes turn into hours, and down the inevitable rabbit hole we go. We fall into a digital information and social spiral that takes us places we never thought we would go, landing in a foreign metaverse. We spend vast amounts of time on clicks, videos, articles, and reels, ending up in an unknown realm. Everything looks the same but feels very different. Sometimes we come out feeling discombobulated and other times we come out feeling empowered and enlightened. Most Generation Z teens (born between 1999 and 2015), many of whom are in middle school and high school, take this journey multiple times a day.
The Battle of the Mind
The primary battle zone resides in the mind. This makes sense, as the mind is the communicator and controller of all aspects of our bodies. Control the mind, control the body. In Genesis 3, Satan proposed a thought of doubt or distorted truth. The serpent said, “Did God really say?” Eve confirmed the statement, but Satan replied, “You will not certainly die.” It was at this moment Eve shifted from a foundation of truth to a foundation of a perversion of truth. “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened” (Genesis 3:1-7, New International Version).
Is this not the same spiritual war we are facing today? Satan’s conniving ways have not changed. Teens are engulfed in a culture and landscape the Barna Research Group describes as “Digital Babylon.” This is where we find ourselves as we attempt to make disciples of teens who will also make disciples.
When we think of spiritual warfare, the spectrum can run from subtle questioning of truth to the extremes of demonic possession and Satan worship. All are prominent in our culture and world. We need to be prepared to face all fronts. But the broader, more detrimental impact on our teens today is psychological manipulation through social media platforms. Here is where culture, politics, fluidity of truth, pornography, misinformation, greed, and so much more collide.
How cult leader ‘Commander Butcher’ plotted to sow mayhem across US
Far right (US)
Guilty plea by far-right activist lays bare plans for bombings, school shootings and Santas handing out poisoned candies

Michail Chkhikvishvili, a self-described cult leader who called himself “Commander Butcher”, did not look like a Hollywood vision of a contemporary terrorist, despite the bizarre, almost made-for-TV extremist actions he planned, such as having people dressed as Santa Claus hand out poison candies on the streets of New York.
Chkhikvishvili appeared in a Brooklyn court last week as one might find an office IT tech: close-cropped hair and black-rimmed glasses, attentive, clear-spoken and cooperative as he was questioned about his understanding of a plea that could see him imprisoned for up to 18 years at his March sentencing.
The 23-year-old Georgian neo-Nazi was in US federal court to plead guilty to charges of soliciting bombings, school shootings and other acts of hate-motivated violence across the US.
It marked the end of an astonishing saga of plans for inciting and carrying out outlandish and appalling crimes. Chkhikvishvili was the leader of the aptly named Maniac Murder Cult, an international racist violent extremist group. He recruited people to commit violent acts, including plotting a mass casualty attack in New York City.

A number of human rights activists carry posters and wave the Straw Hat Pirates' Jolly Roger flag from the anime One Piece during the 873rd Kamisan Action in Jakarta, Indonesia, on August 14, 2025.Claudio Pramana/NurPhoto via Getty Images
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Gen Z-led protests are making waves from Africa to Asia, and while the issues spurring them are different, the symbol they're using is the same: a grinning skull and crossbones wearing a straw hat.
It was there when young people angry with the lavish lifestyles of the elite brought down Nepal's government last month. It was visible in the Indonesian and Philippine protests this year, and again when Madagascan youth marched against chronic water and electricity shortages over the past 10 days. Right now, it's being waved at protests raging over poor healthcare in Morocco.
Why are frustrated youth taking to the streets worldwide raising this particular Jolly Roger?
The flag comes from a long-running Japanese anime and manga series called One Piece, about a rag-tag band of pirates dubbed "the straw hats," who are led by a cheerful character named Monkey D. Luffy and are fighting an oppressive world government.
It's become a global pop culture phenomenon, translated into multiple languages, and is now also a live-action Netflix series.
