A teacher at my school
In my online ethics class we were having dicussions on ethical issues on the class's online discussion board
Someone's issue was "Why are the talking god out of schools and government? The US is a christian nation"
I explained seperate of church and state, gave a different viewpoint of "How would you feel if your tax dollars were directly supporting another religion, such as Islam?", explained that Christianity is not mentioned in the Constitution, and that the only mention of religion is excluding it (such as amendment one and article iV). There was a few other points and websites she linked, which I refuted.
I come back the next day and the instructor had deleted my posts. They was absolutely nothing hostile about my posts, they were written in an entirely respectful manner, so there was no reason they could have been deleted other than the instructor disagreeing with them
Some kids at my school go nuts whenever we read about other religions. In my textbook, on the page "Birth of Islam", "Islam" had been crossed out, and TERRORISTS written across the page in marker. The rest of the page was full of anti-Islamic hate.
We were reading about Greek gods, and some girl was like, HOW CAN THEY DO SUCH AWFUL THINGS, LIKE BELIEVING IN FALSE GODS? ITS SO OBVIOUS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY REAL ONE.
The rest of the school likes to talk about how much they hate gay people. One guy in Yearbook Class was talking about how if he ever figured out his son was gay, he would drive him out into the middle of nowhere, and throw him out onto the road, then leave because he never wants to see him again. The rest of the kids were cheering him on.
One teacher explained to me that I was sick because there was a demon inside of me, and that I should pray to get better. Right.
I don't go to a Christian school or anything. It's just a normal public school.
