7th-grader stands up for faith

teacher and students smallA California-based law group is considering legal action in a case where a teacher reportedly attacked Christianity during class time, calling Christians "zombie worshippers."

 

 

Tommi Oatis, a seventh-grader in a Northern California school district, says her teacher blatantly criticized the Christian faith in class, telling students that no one should believe the Bible "since it was written 2,000 years ago." The teacher allegedly also compared a photo of an individual drinking out of a "blacks only" fountain during the civil rights era, comparing it to Proposition 8 and the battle over same-sex "marriage" in The Golden State.  ( 7th-grader stands up for faith)


 
Robert Tyler (Advocates for Faith & Freedom)Robert Tyler, general counsel for Advocates for Faith & Freedom, reports that Oatis boldly stated in class: "That's not right. I'm an African-American person myself, and I take offense to your comment because it's not the same thing. You're trying to compare the prohibition of same-sex marriage to discrimination against blacks. That is wrong and it's not fair."

(Billy's Thoughts>>> Good for this 7th grader  even some adults would not have been as brave as she was. While I believe for the most part Christian kids belong in Christian schools I must tip my hat to this kid. Good for her and may God bless her for the stand.)
