Apparently Georgia will start teaching the Bible in public schools, using public dollars.

You also forget to mention that is an elective class, so people dont actually have to take it.

It doesn't matter. Unless the class can be demonstrated to be about the objective, critical study of the Bible and is to be taught to students impartially (i.e. there is no element of proselytising), then public money is still being used to promote a specific religious ideology. That, regardless of whether the class is an elective, would be unconstitutional.

Yes, and there is no one "angry" at china, or communism for that matter.

WASTING money on gym class is a pretty big waste too. Especially since you NEED gym to graduate. Even if you have a broken bone you still have to go there, and sit there IN YOUR UNIFORM, for 45 minutes. But teaching a class that people (and i'm sure there are tons) would be extremely interesting in, yeah that's a waste of time. That's much different from let's say City University of New York's electives such as MIDI, swimming, tennis, horticulture, certain history electives, etc.

I'm not arguing against it because I think it's a "waste of money", I'm arguing against it because it's using public funds to promote a specific religious ideology. That, as I said, is unconstitutional.

You can have a literary class on the Koran or the Bible as strictly an art form, but never a religious class in public institutions, how can you NOT GET it

no one is forcing you to take that class, the only people who will are people who are already interested. same as the MIDI program in my school. there's also real music programs such as jazz, theory, rock, classical. saying that is the same as promoting MIDI.

WTF - those who are interested will actually be using public dollars on promoting religion which is UNCONSTITUTIONAL and ILLEGAL.
