Ooh, ooh!! If that had happened to my children (and of course they went to the same school!) I would have been straight down there to have it out with the teacher in question. How dare they teach that the Bible is true and ridicule those who have the balls to think for themselves and question it!

Just because it is a 'church school' doesn't give them the right to indoctrinate. I hope you wrote a strongly worded letter!!
