She put it for all the world to see. She gives other students who think like her the "right" to bully gay kids. She should be fired. She teaches bible study, and if she posted on FB there was no god, she would probably be fired, or the public "christians" would come for her with pitchforks and tar and feathers. This is beyond thought. She should have known better. I smoke pot, but I would NEVER post that on FB with my profile till it's accepted in the work place.
