You should fire your music teacher, if he or she taught you that C E G is a minor.
C E G is a GODly chord, and could only be perverted into a demonic minor chord by lowering the third, thus creating c minor. But you wouldn't want to do that, unless you were drawn to Satan's darkness.

Of course you could always back up and say "well not if there is no minor key" but I am sure you know that the circle of fifths and relative minor keys do exist...what are we to do?

What are we to do?
We are to do what I've told you to do, and play only using C Major, avoiding relative and parallel minors, and any other secular theory nonsense.
C E G, F A C, and G B D should be more than enough to write and play any song.

Next I find that we are not to play white and black notes together on the keyboard?

Yes, you heard right. Glad we have that settled.
