Its not a one time incident. It has happened enough for several students to talk to their youth pastor about it. And if the teacher did say she won't have Godly speaking in her class than it is oppression. The student responded to the teacher after being educated by her pastor abour her rights.

 

""She told me that we're not going to have godly speaking in her class," Turner said. "I said, 'well my pastor told me it's my constitutional right.'""

Its on a list of words and slang, so its not like only religious words were being targeted. The teacher wanted to set up a neutral environment in the classroom, and while I think it was a stupid rule and a dumb way of going about it, there is nothing overtly wrong with it.

As previously stated, she got suspended for disrupting class and being uppity, not for just saying "bless you".

Finally, as stated multiple times, the pastor is wrong...that isn't your constitutional right. Thats not how the bill of rights works...
