I recently came across this piece of tongue in cheek:
Why God Never Received University Tenure
1. He only had 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 doubted that he wrote it himself.
6. It may be true that he created the world but what has he done since?
7. His cooperative efforts have been quite limited.
8. The scientific community has had a very rough time trying to replicate his results.
9. He never applied to the Ethics Board for permission to use human subjects.
10. When one experiment went awry, he tried to cover it up by drowning the subjects.
11. Subjects that did not behave as predicted have been punished, or deleted from the sample.
12. He rarely came to class; just told students to read the book.
13. He had his son teach the class.
14. He expelled his first two students for learning beyond the syllabus.
15. Although there were only 10 requirements, most students failed his tests.
16. His office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountain-top.
