I think it kind of depends on the level of education you're at and the role that's expected of the teacher. A school teacher has no business telling pupils that their strongly held religious beliefs are erroneous.

A university lecturer would be slightly different, given that they are supposed to present their analysis. They still should not be specifically saying "you are wrong" but there's nowt wrong with having an analysis that precludes them being right.

Both of these could be good teachers.
