People also don't care about your opinion though since it's just as valid to deny LGBT than to accept them. Why should people be forced to accept your ideology when you in a public space meant for education though ? The teacher doesn't owe sh*t to anyone and especially not to students. Your not in school for teachers to cater to you.

Then why should we respect anyone about anything? Why should I respect someone's religious beliefs if they're not going to respect me as a human being? If you can't respect another human being then you should probably not be in a job where you have to interact with them all day, every day.

Don't you see that different places have different purposes ? School is meant for learning and only that. Don't attend the freaking class or change school if you think the values of the school and teachers don't align with yours. To demand an entire space to shift their values to cater to the needs individuals is absurd. People should keep their religious beliefs or identities at home, not at school. No one forced you to go. Just don't go if you don't like it. That teacher was hired because of his expertise in a specific field, not because of how inclusive he is toward people. If you don't want to learn about the field then don't go lmao.

Of course schools are meant for learning, but people don't stop being who they are when they enter the building. Obviously the teacher doesn't check his religious beliefs at the door of the building, so why should a trans student be disrespected because of who they are?

By your standards the teacher shouldn't be teaching there if he's allowing his religious beliefs to dictate his actions in the classroom.

This should apply to the teacher as well of course.

If school is about teaching and learning, how do you expect a teacher to teach people properly if they can't treat students with basic respect?
