While Leslie Culver was a Bible-reading "R.E. swot", Susan got in trouble at Coal Hill School for saying that Religious Education was just "history with more blatant fibs" as she was much better on the Gods that came from Outer Space than the ones people made up so they could feel better. She was sent to Mr Carker's office. (PROSE: Time and Relative [+]Loading...["Time and Relative (novel)"])
Around this time, RE at Coal Hill School was taught by Joseph Liebermann. (PROSE: Matrix [+]Loading...["Matrix (novel)"])
