By the way in high school most public schools cover every religion usually in history class and bible should not be the only religious book taught in school. And I think it should only be taught as historic reference with nothing pretaining to beliefs.No one can disagree with the fact and truth that the Bible is a worldview. The Old Testament forms the Hebraic worldview. The New Testament and the Old forms the Christian worldview.
A worldview is the process of socialization, the lens through which we interpret events, and thus determine the outcome of politics, ethics, laws and etc.
There is an identifiable, hostile to Christianity, worldview taught in Public Schools.
It is called secular humanism.
Secular humanism argues in part that truth is relative, that morals are experiential and not absolute, that science is opposed to religion (even though science was created by men of the Christian worldview, for Christians, and Christians don't disagree with science since like terrorism, it is a strategy; an approach...not a belief).
Secular humanism is an affront to Christianity, it has a broad spectrum of results, from Hitler, to the UK, from New England to modern Germany, but secular humanism can be brutish, and is illogical.
Of course, public schools no longer teach logic to children.
Because, secular humanism is a worldview, just as Christianity is a worldview; because secular humanism is in conflict with Christianity; because the Government (Federal nor State) can choose one religion over another, or anti-religion over pro-religion, or vice versa;
It should be resolved that the Bible must be taught in public schools.
I further would argue that if you are afraid that your child's exposure to Christianity, and to what Christianity teaches and is about, is going to make your child a Christian, then you should have your head examined.
Really? I looked at my old history book from high school and guess what, it didn't teach that Jesus Christ was resurrected. So it really didn't teach anything about Christianity.
Because if the Tomb were not Empty there's no point.
Now, beside that, it's not about "history" I'm talking worldviews.
Schools teach secular humanist worldviews, that is "things are relative". When what they should be teaching are Christian worldviews or the worldviews of their LOCAL PARENTS whose children are attending that Public School.
The curriculum should make room for the Parent's worldviews to be expressed.
After all, it's their children, and to a Christian, each child is God's child...it sure as hell is not the states' child. Period. So they don't get to decide what to teach our kids.
Period.
Sheesh. Go peddle your idiocy somewhere else. Christianity is just one of many religions, and it borrows much of it's mythology from prior religions, from virgin birth to resurection.
