This is a pretty disgusting twisting of the facts on your part.

Catholic, Baptist and Pentecostal leaders are all opposing this move, because it involves individual teachers deciding which religion they want to teach in their classroom. it is seen also as an assault by liberals in the government on Christian schools of every denomination - by mandating a watered-down state-approved version of liberal Christianity the charters of the Christian schools will be labeled superfluous and will not be renewed.

Actually, you are both grossly wrong. My wife speaks fluent Spanish and she says this law mandates reading from the Bible WITHOUT INTERPRETATION. Scripture will be read verbatim without any thing else said by the teachers.

By the way, any Protestant “leaders” against this are liberals, as is the Catholic church on this matter.

Learn Spanish and read up on it. How dare you be against this.

The Bible was taught in US schools for many years. It was also used to teach reading. Was there something wrong with with that among conservatives?

The Bible speaks for itself ... so you ban teachers from teaching their preferred doctrine and stick to just what it says
