Then proceed to explain you've finished your homework, and since there's nothing to test you on...ask if you can have your A now, or if you should wait to receive it at the end of the term.
Do it in a nice way...but really, your teacher is really just prejudicially dismissing the Word of God. | Not everyone is going to accept the same authority because different people have different worldviews.
