One Million Cheers for Matthew LaClair!!!!! A public school room is no place for the teachers blatantly evangelical views. Who is this creep teacher to be telling students that they will go to hell for not believing what he believes? Paszkiewicz should keep his views to Sunday school or get a job teacing full-time at a religious institution not a public shool. Matthew is brave for doing what he did, and all students and residents of NJ should be proud of him for standing up and speaking out about this. Teacher: The purpose of public school is to provide free education for people that couldn't afford education. That’s the purpose of public school Me: I disagree. The purpose of public school is to provide a quality education to all people, regardless of their financial situation. Part of the taxes I pay goes for education for other people's kids. Its part of the American dream to rise in economic status by gaining education. PPS: if this offends anyone then tough, because I AM offended that a wonderful teacher is being persecuted by an unknowledgeable juvenile for merely stating what he believes in. Also that this kid is living in MY COUTNRY where my friends and family have fought to keep our freedom and he turns his back on our president and our flag. What the hell are you talking about?????? It is NOT your country, it is OUR country. People fought & fight to retain the right to speak out and state what they believe. Have you heard of "I might not agree with what you say, but I defend the right for you to say it?" It does not matter if the person is 16, 33, 109 or 55. He/She can say what they believe freely or this is not America. Public school is Not the forum to preach.
