Wow...that's as wrong as telling them that god is as real as me or you. god shouldn't be brought up outside of a class on religion, history or culture and even then there shouldn't be any pro or anti god opinion coming from the teacher or the text books.
It's too bad we don't live in a perfect world....probably be boring though.
For the record, I attended Bakersfield, CA public schools- I believe it has the most churches per capita in the entire world, and consistently elects religious nut jobs to the school board. I can only imagine how bad it is in more "liberal" areas.
I'll help you out here.
It isn't a problem.
I know the same problems exist in San Diego, CA and New Jersey, so, way to be an idiot again. No surprise, of course.
My anecdotal evidence is every bit as good as yours.
