A US teenager has successfully won a lawsuit against a teacher who described creationism as "superstitious nonsense".
Chad Farnan, a devout Christian studying at California's Capistrano Valley high school, persuaded a judge that his European history teacher, James Corbett, violated the establishment clause of the First Amendment, which courts interpret as banning government employees from promoting, [b]or displaying hostility towards, religion[/b].

Interesting. What would happen to a Canadian teacher who said such things in class? I mean in a real public school, not a religious school funded by the public.
