The Biblical text(s) which refers to salvation are still there. The “commentary” (written by man, not God) summarizing how YOU can make this a reality in your own life by praying TODAY to trust Jesus Christ as your personal Lord & Saviour are omitted.

Why? So...The Gideons can “sneak” it past the government censors? If so they have just taught the kids that Christians are sneaky, lukewarm, and timid.
Be brave! Do what is right! Close the down the government schools. That is the solution that is needed here.
God wrote a book. His Word- Old Testament & New Testament, comprise "The Bible". Many published versions of The Bible include additional content, perhaps a few pages for family genealogy, a concordance (index of words), some mideast maps, etc. An outline of the "Plan of Salvation" is one such addition. Nothing wrong with including such a section. It is not contrary to the Word of God. However... it is also not REQUIRED to be in each & every edition of The Bible published.
