Sometimes it's easy to forget that a lot of people need their metaphors spelled out for them in plain English but honestly, if you still don't see this one after being smacked in the face with it (also a metaphor), there's not really anything that anyone here can say or do to rescue you from that denialism.
Not a valid point. Maybe if it had brown skin and a towel on its head. i see a fat croc with lots of hair and fat clothes.

Nope. Have you?
He didn't have to bring the book in. If the school can convincingly state that the publication of the book creates a disruption to the school environment (and thus to the job he and his employer are supposed to be doing) that's enough, and that should be easy to establish. At that point literally the only question left is the subjective test of whether or not the public interest of the school minimizing disruption of its teaching environment outweighs the public interest of his commentary. Quite frankly at that point anything's possible but his chances aren't good and at that point the burden of proof lies with him.
If it walks, talks, and looks like an obtuse and leading caricature of a duck, it's probably a duck. When someone employs a stereotype that has been in wide use for decades in exactly that same manner, there is really no rational reason to infer a different use in context.
What history? That doesn't count. It's just words on paper. Just because you say they have meaning doesn't count for shit.
Or you are just blatantly ignorant. Or deliberatly. I'd say it is the latter. But hey, keep defending your 'position'. I'm sure it will work out just fine for you.
You have no idea what he's talking about, do you? Completly missed his point.
This is a bit off topic but people would have to agree on what those teachings were before a statement like that has any application here.
Being bad at something isn't really the same thing as having a social phobia against it. That's the beauty and horror of organized religion. You can make up just about whatever interpretation of millennia-old rules that you want and find someone ordained to validate your position if you look hard enough. People who believe a particular version of a particular deity exists and has certain rules are no more accountable for someone else's interpretation than I am for the people who have the same first name as me, or go to the same dentist.
He should probably sue...I mean what he does in hes private life is none of their business. Only way to make them respect the first amendment is when they start losing lots of money.
I am a doctor. I have a well-trained urge to help people who injure themselves out of stupidity, and then laugh at them for it.

The faculty needs to decide what is in the best interest of the students. Letting someone with a highly skewered view of the world (including left, right, religious, and so on) influence the minds of kids and teenagers is usually not in their best interest.
Guess we are going to start firing those that make fun of Christianity too? Lol, jk. no. That's kewl.
