Zerocare Alinskyism again. Would the AP and ACLU be as determined to go after an Islamic course teaching odious things about Jews and Christians and that Allah will “fill Hell with djinn and men”?

RE :”A high school curriculum supported by Hobby Lobby chain president Steve Green, billed as a way to teach archaeology, history and the arts through Bible stories, also tells students God is always there in times of trouble and that sinners must “suffer the consequences” of disobeying.”

Sounds like the AP writer took some liberty with the above considering it later says that it doesn't tell the kids what to believe.

It probably teaches :”the Bible says.....”

Wow, I must have missed something here. Doesn’t EVERY religion teach that the sinner will be punished? Heck, even humanist believe that society will punish the law breaker.

it also endorses behavior for religious reasons

kids, never mind those religious nuts. Its okay to murder and steal.

The Mustang School Board in suburban Oklahoma City voted this month to place the Museum of the Bible’s curriculum in its schools as an elective for a one-year trial after being assured that the intent is not to proselytize but to use the Bible to explain key principles in the arts and sciences.

So does "Sinners will suffer" fall under arts? Or sciences?

Of course a sinful action has coincidences.
I take a gun and shoot you in the foot.
You forgive me, God forgives me, I forgive myself, you still have a bullet in your foot and it is my responsibility to deal with that sinful action, whatever that maybe.
