Heavy metal teacher got fired

He had been an arts teacher for a week when the high school's principal fired him. The teacher was playing in a heavy metal-band, which the principal thought was highly immoral and against what the school stands for.

According to the fired teacher, the principal has said that the other teachers couldn't accept a heavy metal-colleague and that the parents probably wouldn't either.

Wtf? How mature...

Ex-guitarist in Soilwork, Ola Frenning, used to be a teacher.. I dunno if he still is..

And Peter Wildoer, drummer in Darkane is also a teacher

But of course Soilwork and Darkane aren't as extreme as Gorgoroth, but still...

Ok, now I kinda understand..

This guy who got fired, Emil, plays in a black metal-band and the school is owned by Pentecostals..

Soo... I can understand the whole thing now, but it still doesn't justify it..

This sounds so 1980's, when scared parents believed heavy metal was dangerous for the kids. But nothing in this article said something about black metal or the Pentecostals.
