Kudos to Daniel Glowacki who not only stood up to badgering, bullying, and harassment in order to defend another student, but to defend his God-given rights.
A pox upon the school and court system that sought to intimidate and punish him when he had done no wrong and was in fact the injured party.
Great essay. Thanks.

The most insidious form of bullying extant is people claiming to be offended by anything and everything.
Anthony Esolen is one of the best tinkers and writers on the scene today. Please ping me if/when you post any more of his essays -— and soon!
No wonder Michigan is going to Havana in a handbasket!
A well written piece! He does not make enough though of the palsity of the punishment metered out. The was an adult teacher violating the right of a student and bullying him because he stood up for his beliefs. If the shoes was on the other foot (i.e. the student was gay and getting bullied) this teacher would be struck off from teaching and maybe even on trial.
Aye. There's the rub. Tutors have ALWAYS been in the business of catechesis--it's just that in the past, Americans pretty much shared the same catechism on right and wrong.
Because we now have a radically secular/atheist agenda assumed in public schools, no parent should use these atheist/perverted tutors--and rather opt for home-schooling or private Christian schooling.
