Ohio science teacher, 53, accused of burning crosses into students' arms
MOUNT
VERNON, Ohio - Demonstrations on the town square show how divided
people are over the school board's decision to fire a science teacher
accused of preaching his Christian beliefs in the classroom and burning
crosses on students' arms.
John
Freshwater, 52, was fired last month after an outside consulting firm
released a report concluding that he taught creationism and was
insubordinate in failing to remove a Bible and other religious
materials from his classroom at Mount Vernon Middle School.
Some
residents consider him a courageous fighter for religious freedom.
Others say he has brazenly violated the church-state divide.
