A Fine Example of Christian Arrogance |
http://tinyurl.com/cktv8
A former primary school teacher in South Africa considers himself as
answerable only to God, and has launched a lawsuit claiming that his
dismissal is a case of religious discrimination. He was fired because he
refused to stop administering corporal punishment to his students,
despite the fact that such action contravenes the Schools Act and the
constitution. He claims that his authority is the Bible and God's word.
Regards,
Josef

require an ounce of reason or a shred of proof.

Why argue with him? If he says he answers only to his
god then, by all means, send him to his god.

The judge should make him call god as a witness.
