"This country was founded by Christians whether you like it or not. Knowledge of the Bible should be part of any good curriculum."

Perhaps, but they were very careful to avoid making this nation officially Christian and to guarantee that all citizens, regardless of their religion, would have equal rights.

I doubt that the Bible readings in your school, never mind the prayers, had the intention of merely being an education on what the Bible said.

My point stands. Citizens of this nation are of all faiths, with about 5% or so having no religious beliefs at all. Every single one of those citizens is equal to every other citizen. Religious education belongs in the home and church, not in the public schools.

Your opinion is noted. Also noted is the fact you are an atheist.
