The Bible and the Watts Hymnal were used in public schools post-Revolutionary War (Early 1800's Washington D.C. and etc.). I guess the framers didn't share your same "constitutional" concerns.

And regardless of what I believe...It is a historical fact that the Bible was used in public schools (state-sponsored) for hundreds of years.

Interesting historical facts. Now please, as regards my question, explain to me how you suggest the religion and sect of religious public school content would be decided. This is the third time I've offered you a podium to explain this to me, since you declined to the first two times. Surely since you believe in religious public school teaching, you have some idea of what religion it should be and why?
