Oklahoma’s Superintendent of “Education” will require Bible Study in all Public schools.

JLW said:
Oklahoma’s state superintendent on Thursday directed all public schools to teach the Bible, including the Ten Commandments, in an extraordinary move that blurs the lines between religious instruction and public education.

The superintendent, Ryan Walters, who is a Republican, described the Bible as an “indispensable historical and cultural touchstone” and said it must be taught in certain grade levels.

Oklahoma’s State Superintendent Requires Public Schools to Teach the Bible

The state superintendent, Ryan Walters, said the Bible was a “necessary historical document.” The mandate comes as part of a conservative movement to infuse Christian values in public schools.

Can anyone guess where Oklahoma ranks in Educational achievement?

If you guessed 50th you would be correct.

Oklahoma ranked 50th worst state for education, new study reports

Oklahoma ranked 50th in WalletHub's 2023’s States with the Best & Worst School Systems. The state ranked 50th in school quality and 31st in safety.

Besides being blatantly unconstitutional, we have the Chinese breathing down our throats as they make major advancements in science, and these Republicans want to bring our public education back to the dark ages. Why is it Pubs want to force down the throats of its residents their brand of Christianity (sorry Catholics) instead of having their kids attend parochial school? Teaching the Bible should stay with the Church. Oklahoma will continue to remain in last place and its children will be left behind as other states and their students get prepared for the future.

All these so-called "Christians" who want to teach their holy myth book, very seldom is practice it ways to do. Love, Compassion, Caring, Openness, and love for their fellow man.

We are all sinners who fall short. But, to read this coming from you? Well, that’s about as rank as it can get.

Invisible god that has never been seen by a human that answers prayers and can’t be proven but can be felt? It’s not that far fetched really if you think about it. Lots of religions have deities like that. It is probably the noodle, the sauce and the meatball part that makes it seem weird but it is not a lot crazier than any other religion from my observation. Some times we just have to use our brains to see what makes sense and what don’t. I agree that the Flying Spaghetti Monster seems extremely unlikely but as long as invisibility remains one of his attributes we have to tolerate his existence for eternity. He can’t be proven wrong and that sucks.

Are you a Christian Fancy? Do you attend church regularly?

See, what you’re doing here is no different than your daily use of Alinsky tactics. You’re ascribing that anyone supporting Trump must be a practicing Christian, because Christians supported Trump overwhelmingly. Then you’re making it worse by implying that if that’s the case, then Christians who voted for Trump are somehow fake Christians.

I have posted in here many times, enough for you to know that while I believe in God, I am agnostic. So, this evil little smear by you has no effect on me. You should judge others less, and concern yourself more with why your own party is so screwed right now…dems are underwater on every major issue headed into the midterms, and are in danger of losing even more ground in Congress. Your party is broke financially, and broken internally.

You cling onto losing, bitter hate, but want to tell me I’m a flawed Christian, while if I had to bet, I’d bet you’re an atheist…Shame on you.

Why don’t you offer some ideas, and we can discuss? But, you won’t do that. Because, you have none. All your media masters give you is hate. What a sad pathetic life. I feel sorry for you.

Tolerate? Tell us, what is it you’d like to do to those who believe in God?

No, you couldn't pay me enough.

Except black churches, they're fun.
And they don't hound you for $$$.

What is a Christian? Can anyone point out in the Bible where the so-called white Jesus called himself a Christian.
