I agree. Christian teachers should let their light shine in the government schools and get fired. They should never, never lie to their students ( bear false witness) and they give the kids books that lie.
Although my education was aimed at a teaching career in biology, I decided instead to work in the field rather than to teach. (Not that teaching is not work. It is most certainly hard work!) The only teaching experience I have was as a grad student many years ago. It was very rewarding but I know only enough about teaching to say it is a honorable profession but it carries with it the additional responsibility of shaping the minds of future generations.
