Tanner Cross may teach P.E., but it might be grammar that costs him his job! That's the unbelievable situation playing out in Loudoun County, Va., where an elementary gym teacher dared to put himself on the wrong side of the gender wars during the public comment session of the local school board.
"I love my students," he said firmly, "but I will never lie to them regardless of the consequences. I'm a teacher, but I serve God first -- and I will not affirm that a biological boy can be a girl and vice versa....It's against my religion, it's lying to a child, it's abuse to a child, and it's sinning against our God."
