And a Child shall lead them... http://www.allenbwest.com/2015/10/7th-grader-explains-what-her-teacher-would-do-if-she-didnt-deny-the-existence-of-god/
“Today I was given an assignment in school that questioned my faith and told me that God was not real. Our teacher had started off saying that the assignment had been giving problems all day. We were asked to take a poll to say whether God is fact, opinion or a myth and she told anyone who said fact or opinion was wrong and God was only a myth,” Wooley told board members,” according to EAG News.
The teacher “started telling kids they were completely wrong and that when kids argued we were told we would get in trouble. When I tried to argue, she told me to prove it, and I tried to reference things such as the Bible and stories I have read before from people who have died and went to heaven but came back and told their stories, and she told me both were just things people were doing to get attention.”

People sending their children to public schools today are child abusers. Here is the proof.
Values clarification exercises can be useful at the university level. A 7th graders brain does not normally have the abstract reasoning ability to make such exercises a viable teaching tool.
This was simply proselytizing by an atheist (who is probably a slut that wants to evade the morality of her lifestyle) and is unacceptable in a classroom
This teacher should be fired.
Forced atheism is no better
than forced religion.
What happen to “separation of Church & state”?
And we have to pay higher and higher property taxes to pay for this indoctrination.
She should have given the teach a lesson with a louieville slugger and then told her that God sent her.
So what did the school board have to say? It would be nice to hear the rest of the story.
No? Then that proves she doesn't have one.
Even if someone comes back from the dead, it won’t convince someone who doesn’t want to be convinced.
Those folks who demand *Prove it* will not accept anything a Christian has to offer. It will be rejected off hand as not good enough or substantial enough.
Even meeting Jesus face to face wasn’t enough for the many who rejected Him.
People don’t not believe because there isn’t enough evidence but because they don’t want to believe.
This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Religion in schools? Where’s the ACLU?
I think a 5-year old can intuit the idea of a prime mover or first cause. It’s shame this kid didn’t have the vocabulary to express it.
Name the teacher
or
shut up!
Worst decision in education was taking it out of the hands of clergy. Religious schooling didn’t have this kind of idiotic nonsense.
Reason to Home School Ping.
Yeah, unfortunately they can’t retort, “Oh? So you’re saying you know better than Aristotle?”
Extortion is the crime of obtaining money or property by threat to a victim’s property or loved ones, intimidation, or false claim of a right.
What is Extortion?
Most states define extortion as the gaining of property or money by almost any kind of force, or threat of 1) violence, 2) property damage, 3) harm to reputation, or 4) unfavorable government action. While usually viewed as a form of theft/larceny, extortion differs from robbery in that the threat in question does not pose an imminent physical danger to the victim.
Extortion is a felony in all states. Blackmail is a form of extortion in which the threat is to expose embarrassing and damaging information to family, friends, or the public. Inherent in this common form of extortion is the threat to expose the details of someone’s private lives to the public unless money is exchanged. Another common extortion crime is offering “protection” to a businessman to keep his business safe from burglary or vandalism. For example, Dan goes to Victor’s place of business and demands monthly payment from Victor for the business’s “protection” from vandalism and after-hours theft. Fearing that he or his business will suffer harm otherwise, Victor agrees to pay Dan.
Extortion can take place over the telephone, via mail, text, email or other computer or wireless communication. If any method of interstate commerce is used in the extortion, it can be a federal crime.
Extortion statutes
Virtually all extortion statutes require that a threat must be made to the person or property of the victim. Threats to harm the victim’s friends or relatives may also be included. It is not necessary for a threat to involve physical injury. It may be sufficient to threaten to accuse another person of a crime or to expose a secret that would result in public embarrassment or ridicule. The threat does not have to relate to an unlawful act.
Other types of threats sufficient to constitute extortion include those to harm the victim’s business and those to either testify against the victim or withhold testimony necessary to his or her defense or claim in an administrative proceeding or a lawsuit. Many statutes also provide that any threat to harm another person in his or her career or reputation is extortion.

I just sent ping to you. LOL I am sorry.
If I were the parent, I’d confront the teacher face to face. I’d be civil about it and then I’d debate her like she has never been debated before.
Her right to free speech doesn’t mean that I am denied my right to free speech. If she wants to open it up for discussion then I am all for it.
