What this particular teacher wants to do is deprive her students of an honest education in science by wasting their classroom time indoctrinating them with her personal superstitious beliefs about magic designers in the sky while using idiot logic quotes from the same small handful of completely bogus charlatans all the rest of the anti-science Luddites are quoting. She should be charged with child abuse and put in a slammer.

What sense does it make to speak of moral wrongdoing or intellectual dysfunction in relation to a product of evolution? What are you comparing the universe to when you assume that there's something 'wrong' with what it has produced, which commands punishment? How can there be something 'wrong' with evolution?

Complaining about something that on one's own view was not designed for any purpose and which is nothing but the result of completely impersonal, random concatenations of atoms, themselves nothing but the result of a large series of highly improbable, impersonal accidents of physics no different that the physics that cause the subjective utterances produced by the chemicals of your brain, is absurd.

Cordially,
