Have Christianity gone too far?

I wasn't going to post this , but after I read what happened to this student in Ohio I said this is it!! Why do they have the need to push their believes on others? This is a blog open for discussion, if you disagree with this blog, you are free to express it.

 

Read article below:

 

Teacher accused of burning cross on student's arm School administrators in Ohio voted Friday to begin the process of firing a middle school teacher accused of burning a cross into a student's arm and refusing to keep his religious beliefs out of the classroom. The Mount Vernon School Board passed a resolution to terminate the employment of John Freshwater, an eighth-grade science teacher for the past 21 years. Freshwater, according to an independent report, used an electrostatic device to mark a cross on the arm of one of his students, causing pain to the student the night of the incident and leaving a mark that lasted for approximately three weeks. According to the Ohio Department of Education, the student's family has filed a lawsuit. Freshwater was also reprimanded several times for refusing to move his Bible from his classroom desk and teaching creationism alongside evolution, according to the 15-page independent report. The report also cites evidence that Mr. Freshwater told his students that "science is wrong because the Bible states that homosexuality is a sin and so anyone who is gay chooses to be gay and is therefore a sinner."

 

My opinion here? Christianity is more of an illnes and an  illusion , which keeps the weak under the fake believe that we are all sinners and that we must convert in order to go to heaven. Give me a break.
