Persecution is the price many Christians pay for their beliefs. However, I'm pretty turned off by militant evangelists myself, and I firmly believe that there is a time and a place for everything. I can't tell by the article what they're referring to as "preaching in the classroom." I mean, it's one thing to make a profession of your own faith, but quite another to impose beliefs onto others. I strongly disagree with the latter, but to me it seems like he was just talking about himself. Lots of teachers do this with their students. Still, that is crossing a line unless he was asked about his faith, which is still not concluded. Nevertheless, to take up class time discussing his spiritual convictions is inappropriate by most regulations. He’s young – live and learn.
