Florida lawmakers advance bill requiring high schools to offer Bible class

[gratuitous]

15. My reading of the article

I read the article to say the bill requires that schools offer the class, not that students have to take it. Although even at that, I can see how in certain areas a failure to take the class could subject a student to ridicule and bullying.

I could put together a kick-ass curriculum for such a class, but I have a feeling I'd run into a buzzsaw of opposition. Probably start as soon as I taught the kiddos that Jesus wasn't followed around by four guys named Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John who wrote down all the things he said and did. I had a fledgling discussion end quite abruptly one time when I said that to my interlocutor.
