It is something that will depend person to person. Some people just shouldnt be teachers, its that simple.

I am planning on becoming a teacher after I finish my masters, and I have every intent of trying to teach my students about everything, even things I dont believe in or dont like, but then again its teaching philosophy, so its a bit more suited for that kind of thing.

Granted I am sure bias will naturally try to get in the way with such things, but part of the challenge there is making sure to overcome it. Thankfully I have a love for knowledge of all kinds, so it makes it a bit easier, but it doesnt completely stop it.
