1. The schools I went to used those texts...

...the public schools in the area were crime-ridden, and the school was overall failing, so my brother and I were enrolled into a Christian school. We had no choice. I agree, while it did teach based upon the Christian views and beliefs, it was horrid in its bashing of Clinton and Carter (bashing...hmm...not very Christian, IMO), and we were taught that to vote Democratic was a sentence to Hell. I actually had an English teacher tell me that. I vote Democratic...so we'll see

While I am religious, I do not think that textbooks should teach based upon religion. All children should learn the same, especially science/biology-wise. We learned NOTHING about sex or reproduction except a vivid description of abortion at various stages. Eh.
