Brumar89;

I can supply an example of a teacher not being allowed to wear a small crucifix on her necklace.

You are saying there is a crusade against wearing crucifix necklaces - but deny there is anyone trying to bring creationism into school curriculum?

Slightly less nutty than the "You are going to hell" one (which involves a real whack job, imo- I wouldn't really blame the religion for a person like that- they obviously have mental problems acting out like that, and no matter what religion they were they'd probably be doing something odd- but still, you did ASK- or rather "dare"):

Just fyi- there are a bunch more stories. We've even had problems in my district- with dismissals for cause. It happens a lot. You can find a lot of stories. It doesn't mean all religious people do it- but it's obviously a great temptation. When you've got the truth, it's hard to keep it to yourself. Lights and bushels - right?

For those who do not know where hiding one's light comes from:
