OK school boss announces all teachers will have a Bible & teach from it

No you said “The10c are pretty universal.” (Post 32) and I gave you examples of how it’s not “universal”.

 

As in Christianity, Judaism, islam... but yes several even correlate with Hindu teachings.

 

Perhaps. The previous generation of Christians in particular were very legalistic about wording.

But Jesus Himself basically said what you said, but chose two commandments to cover hundreds. Traditional religious folk hated Him for such things

 

Some school admin in Texas: " hold my beer"......
a bible AND an AR-15

 

Might be a great alternative to what we are seeing in public education in today’s environment!!

 

Ohhhh I smell lawsuits incoming. What about the Jewish kid or Muslim kid in class? You either start teaching all the religions or none at all. I vote for none at all. Then again I’m the heathen that eats a cheeseburger every Friday during lent…

 

shhhh, don't interrupt them while they are building a theocracy.

 

Teaching a specific religion in public schools will be better? Is this a joke?

 

Maybe

 

that was funny !!

 

Or the atheists/agnostics. The fact they are advocating for a god at all is unconstitutional.

 

Exactly, if it was being taught from in say a world religion class it’s appropriate otherwise it should no more be used as a text book than any other religious book.

 

Maga.... against indoctrination of students...... unless it's their preferred doctrines.

 

Do you have reading comprehension issues?

A world religion class would necessitate the use of many books of faith where is that indoctrination of one particular religion?

Or perhaps you’re just anti-christian, anti-jew?

And for the record I’m no MAGA.

 

Not sure, I had a world religion class in CC. Don’t think that teacher had any special training.

 

100%. If that’s the grade it’s a no go.

3rd grades need to focus on reading, math and the basics IMhO.

 

I think that you’re missing the point. The Oklahoma superintendent is NOT talking about a world religion class. This directive is across ALL curriculum in grades 5(?) through 12. THAT is religious indoctrination.

Interestingly, they already have an elective course on the New Testament as part of their state standards. Why is that not sufficient?
