Yesterday we had a warm, friendly conversation about a little situation in the New Jersey town of Kearny, where a Christianist disguised as a high school history teacher has apparently turned his classroom into a venue for Jesus-whoopin’ and telling students who disagree with him or displease him that their one-way ticket to Hell is punched and ready for use.

Today I’m happy to see one of the local prints taking an interest in this story. I'd be even happier if this two-bit Torquemada were subjected to some kind of disciplinary action. That way everybody could be happy. The kid whon exposed him would be vindicated, the school that disciplined him would regain credibility, the teacher would be confirmed in his wingnut martyrdom complex, and Bill O’Reilly and John Gibson would have fresh fodder for their rants about secularism and the persecution of Christians.

That’s what I’d call a win-win situation, and just in time for Christmas, too.
