FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — The American Civil Liberties Union says a science instructor at a public community college in California is improperly teaching religious views on homosexuality and abortion as fact.

ACLU staff attorney Elizabeth Gill sent a letter to Fresno City College officials on Monday about the introductory science class instructor, Bradley Lopez. Gill says Lopez’s teaching methods violate California laws protecting gays from discrimination and prohibiting religious indoctrination at public schools.

Gill says several students have complained that he quoted the Bible to prove that human life begins at conception. They also say he characterized homosexuality as a mental illness that degrades society.

Telephone calls to Lopez and a college spokeswoman were not immediately returned.
