copypasta:
Can't say I approve of telling us all this. For one thing, it's boilerplate school drama, none of our business and there is no moral distinction between your son and his non-churchgoing friends. Lying never helps anyone, but I think you're jumping the gun here linking it to ASD. The more social pressure is applied to someone, the more they'll direct their emotions and reactions inward. Try acting less scared.
edit: I should add that I can't forsee any social consequences for your son as a result of such hearsay, but there's always the possibility. I'm afraid you may have written enough to infer his identity.
