“I noticed that he has a book — a religious book — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book — a book written by a homosexual — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book — a book written by a black person — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book — a book written by woman — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book — a book written by a Mexican — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
....all of these statements are equally offensive.
you are showing that the first line is alone in his category, lets try to fix this
“I noticed that he has a book —
a religious book — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book about sexual orientations — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book about races — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book written by a gender :DD — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book about nationalities — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
here you can see that the teacher may want to avoid some specific debates that would not suit the content of his class lesson, and this without making any kind of discrimination
and...
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book written by a christian — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book written by a homosexual — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book written by a black person — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book written by woman — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
“I noticed that he has a book —
a book written by a Mexican — in the classroom. He’s not permitted to read those books in my classroom.”
now you have your "all of these statements are equally offensive"
