A Texas 7th grade girl says one of her teachers gave an assignment requiring students say God is a myth or receive a failing grade.

Jordan Wooley, who attends West Memorial Junior High School in the Katy Independent School District, told her school board Tuesday night they were given an assignment asking them to identify whether different statements were facts, opinions or myths. On the statement, “There is a God,” the teacher would only allow students to write myth, or else they’d fail, Wooley said.

“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 the board, KHOU reports.

It is incidents such as this open attack upon Christianity that illustrate beyond a shadow of a doubt that American public education is the worst in the civilized world. I think that public school teachers have destroyed the system out of greed and out of their own personal hatreds and biases.

The teacher is "distraught" over the attention according to the article.

They just got caught doing something wrong and THAT is why they are distraught. Interesting the back peddling that is going on there too. Bottom line is that they crossed the line and good for the kids and parents for standing up. I don't love the public school system but my kids have all attended 9th-12th grades at our public school. I currently have a 10th grader there and next year my youngest will be there too. You bet I'll be the first up there if my child's constitutional rights are infringed upon in school and THEY know their rights as well. They are respectful with regard to their faith but they will not go against the truth.
