    On the assignment sheet, students were asked to answer the overall research question about how the world began. Students were also asked to ponder the following questions:

    • How did the world start?
    • Who started it?
    • When did evil start or did it always exist?
    • Are people inherently good or evil or neither?
    • What is morality?
    • What is religion?
    • What is Christianity?
    • What does it mean to be a Christian?
    • Is God real?
    • Is Satan real?

    Exactly one of those bullet points has anything to do with history, and a second is barely relevant

    This teacher isn’t just proselytizing and forcing religious instruction; but is horrible at their job.
