Vuk, aside from I.D., do you think it's okay that the teacher appears to have told students that a muslim classmate was going to hell? Where would you personally draw the line? Are there aspects of your personal religion which would not be appropriate to lay out in front of students in a class which you were teaching?

[edit]


Something that cannot be disproved does not rise to the level of theory in the scientific sense of the word. So it's false to say that I.D. is a theory; rather, it is a belief.
I said that he shouldn't be teaching his religion in the classroom - which is different from teaching an explanation for the origin of life. He was out of line as I said.
And yes, evolution IS a theory. You obviously do not know much about it. Ask any scientist, evolution has not YET become a law, but is still a theory (and a pretty pathetic one at that...).
