good way to get around

the law(s)........

i really don't mind teaching the bible. it's a must read for most. it's part of our history and it's a great work (of fiction for the most part). there is a difference between TEACHING and PREACHING though. i DO mind the preaching part and the proselytizing.
Bible textbook could circumvent culture war
BY STEVEN THOMMA Knight Ridder Newspapers

WASHINGTON - (KRT) - Seeking to defuse a central controversy of the culture wars, a Bible advocacy group will unveil a new textbook Thursday that could open the door to widespread Bible courses in public high schools. The textbook, titled "The Bible and Its Influence," was written to thread a constitutional and legal needle by teaching, not preaching, about the Bible, its editors told Knight Ridder in an exclusive preview. The book comes as the country renews its centuries-old debate over the proper role of religion in public life and public schools. Courts are reviewing whether it's constitutional to include the phrase "One nation under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance. Others argue over whether the Ten Commandments should be displayed in public buildings. Courts and school districts have wrestled for decades over how or whether to teach the Bible. "This predates the evolution versus creationism debate," said Charles Haynes, a senior scholar at the Freedom Forum's First Amendment Center, who's reviewed the book. "We've had so many conflicts, so many lawsuits, on this issue. ... This is finally something that most of us can recommend as an answer."...........
