Bible verse painted on HS teacher's parking space angers fellow staffer: 'I feel
like it’s attacking me'



A Bible verse painted on a teacher's parking space at a Florida public high
school has angered a fellow staff member — so much so that instructional
assistant Marina Gentilesco told WFLA-TV she feels as though the verse is
"attacking" her.


What are the details?

Gentilesco — who works at Wiregrass Ranch High School in Wesley Chapel
about about a half hour north of Tampa — told the station she grew up
hearing stories about her parents in the Holocaust.

That's why passing by the parking space — adorned with the words from
Philippians 4:13 in the New Testament: “I can do all things through Christ
which strengthens me" — every school day angers her so, WFLA said.



“I feel like it’s attacking me as a Jew,” Gentilesco told the station, adding that
"it brings me to the verge of tears, because it brings me back to the 6
million that perished. Six million perished because of our faith — because
we’re Jews.”


She also told WFLA "they survived — we didn’t.”

Gentilesco added to the station that she wouldn't mind the verse in a place
like a church — but that letting it be on school grounds is going too far.


“You put it on a state-funded property, I'm not OK with it," she told WFLA.

'Not a violation'
The station said Gentilesco brought up her grievances about the Bible verse
to the school's principal, who then checked in with the school district.


The verdict?

Pasco County Schools won't be removing the Bible verse, WFLA said.

“It’s not a violation,” the district's Public Information Officer Stephen Hegarty
told the station. “This is personal expression.”

That’s ‘expression’ but the same state doesn’t allow gay teachers to have family pictures on their desks, religious nut jobs
