ADVANCED PLACEMENT??!! Somebody fire that idiot! Or get him to stop teaching the damn thing. Stage Diving Jesus Christ, I thought that was the class that DIDN'T brainwash you into all that crap.
Well, technically, yes, Deism is a sect of Christianity, but it barely follows any modern doctrine, ESPECIALLY the Bible; Thomas Jefferson, a noted Deist, tore his up and made his own, copying down the ones he believed and leaving out the ones he didn't. And I'm pretty sure Benjamin Franklin was into Satanism... but that one needs further research. O.O

Of course this was spoken to a class that thought Paul Revere sent a mass email to all the volunteers warning of the British's arrival.

Oh, you'll love this. The same teacher also asked us to explain "How the beliefs of Islam conflict with the basic America freedoms of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" or something along those lines.
Yeah, I did not make it to the end of the year in that class.

"Let's talk about socialism. I think it's very important to bring back the idea of socialism into the national discussion to where it was at the turn of the [last] century before the Soviet Union gave it a bad name. Socialism had a good name in this country. Socialism had Eugene Debs. It had Clarence Darrow. It had Mother Jones. It had Emma Goldman. It had several million people reading socialist newspapers around the country. Socialism basically said, hey, let's have a kinder, gentler society. Let's share things. Let's have an economic system that produces things not because they're profitable for some corporation, but produces things that people need. People should not be retreating from the word socialism because you have to go beyond capitalism."
-Howard Zinn
