Will you stand out?

I am an LDS and of course, a Christian... I have a situation and i would like you to answer. Imagine, you are a college student. You have lots of classmates and teachers who do not believe in God. Now, they always tease you why you believe in such foolish thing and why do you waste your time. Your teacher also wants you to quit. At the last test, your teacher ask if someone believes in God and if they do, they can torn there test papers because they will not be accepted anymore. That means they can not graduate because they will have no grades. Now, as a Christian, will you continue answering or you would torn your paper apart to show that you are firm. Will you stand out and be firm on what you believe?

~i'd rther lose my grade for the last test than lose my integrity when i deny my faith..in what i believe in... we chose to accept our faith and it is our responsibility to stand up to it.. if you continue to stand out and show a good example amidst the mocking and taunting, they'll realize their mistake.. ~the records of angels are always more powerful than the tip of a pilot pen~ :')

Such behavior is first off illegal. You could and should report this teacher if this a real thing. Although I hope it's not true and just a "what if" question on Mylot. But in my case, I would not deny my beliefs just to please my teacher or anyone else.

I would turn in my paper, but I would also speak to the head of the school, even get lawyers involved if necessary to rectify the situation. I would never do anything to suggest that I am not a believer or not a Christian. If Christ could do all that He did for me, the least I can do is stand up for Him.

Wow, I hope this is purely hypothetical..... I believe I would have torn my paper apart. But it wouldn't have been the end of it, that's for sure. A call to an attorney would be one of my next thoughts.

Hahaha... That is really the very next thing to do. I know that the teacher will not let it just end there. That is really the patter, he really would fail you and because of that, you will file a case. Thanks...

In that situation I would bundle up my papers, tell what few friends you have good bye and on the way out I would tell the rest of them including the instructor to kiss my Christian Bu**. Our personal relationship with God and Jesus are the only thing we have in this life that is of any actual value. If we loose it we have nothing and we are nothing. I WILL NOT allow anyone to get between me and God and I would never allow anyone to try to tell me how to serve my God.
