"For example, explains ArkLaTexhomepage.com, the suit claims that science teacher Rita Roark routinely includes fill-in-the-blank questions on her tests such as “ISN’T IT AMAZING WHAT THE _____________ HAS MADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!â€

 

The ACLU claims that the credited answer for the question is the word “LORD.†When the Buddhist student didn’t input that answer, Roark allegedly made fun of him in front of the entire class.

 

The suit says Roark also called Buddhism “stupid†in a comparative religions segment.

 

In addition, the suit asserts, Roark told students that the Bible is completely factual, that God created the earth about 6,000 years ago and that evolution is not possible.

The suit claims that the boy’s parents noted their objections to these overt Christian messages.
