My Teacher tried to convert me to Christianity..... Again, What to do?

Question

What are my rights here and what should I do about it, there has been 4 teachers and countless students who WON'T LEAVE ME ALONE!

Answer 1

Tell your parents and report that teacher to the administration. I don't think teachers are supposed to do that!!

Answer 2

Well, if you are in a Public School, take your complaint to the Principal. If that doesn't work, take it to the Superintendent. If that doesn't work, take it to the School Board. If that doesn't work, take it to the State Board, that will work. It IS illegal for a teacher or staff member of a public school to discuss or push religious beliefs. They may answer a question if a student asks, and students may talk about it with one another, though they may not push it if another does not wish to speak about it. Again, teachers and staff of a PUBLIC school MAY NOT do this.

I tell you this because it is the law and I respect that other people should not try to influence my children. I would be mad. Haivng said that, I am a Christian and it isn't a bad thing to be one. Its actually great. Jesus does love you. Read the Bible and find out for yourself.

Thats all. BTW, did you tell your parents? It doesn't matter, you can bring it up yourself, I just thought they might be able to assist you.

EDIT
PUT IT IN WRITING ADDRESSED TO THE PERSON YUO ARE REPORTING IT TO WITH COPIES TO THOSE INVOLVED.

Answer 3

Are you at a Christian school? If you are then there probably isn't anything you can do. Otherwise, the only thing you can do short of suing them for violating your religious rights is to tell them "thank you but my religious beliefs are private and none of your business and if you continue to ask me you will force me into legal action to stop you". Have fun with that.

Answer 4

Contact the ACLU, sue your school and rob public funds from your community. Basically complain as loud and as long as you can for your right not to be offended by the viewpoints of those around you. Because that is what living in a free country is all about!

Answer 5

Use physical violence to ward off the students. Get your parents to complain to the headmaster so that he tells off the teachers. If its a religious school you'll just have to move to a different school.

Answer 6

It is nice to be able to bring people to church, but by forcing it just drives people away. I used to be like that driving people crazy, but I've learned the best way to convert people is by being a good example. We can only do so much, the rest simply just out of our hands. Only the Holy Spirit can convert people.

I can only advice you to pray for them.

Answer 7

If your teacher is really pushing his religious beliefs onto you forcefully, and you have asked him politely to stop, you should contact a higher up like a principal/dean. You could possibly claim harassment.

It is one thing to share with someone a belief that makes you happy, its another to try to FORCE them to believe the same as you.

Answer 8

file a complaint with the school board, let them know this feels like harassment the administration should be perceptive and make it stop. After all there i supposedly a separation of church and state.Threaten to sue if its a public school if its not research their policy.

Answer 9

If you're in a public school, talk to the prinicipal. It's quite illegal I beleive.

If the prinicipal is one of them, then try and contact someone higher up.

If you're in a private school, then you're helpless. If they keep harassing you after you have clearly stated "stop" several times, I think you can get it has verbal harrassmant. Try and talk to someone in power.

Answer 10

If it is a public school, you have th speration of Church and state,so go toyour principle and tell him/her that the teacher is herassing you about religion andyou want it to stop, also tell youR parents!
