Summary
The Texas State Board of Education approved a preliminary vote for a new optional curriculum integrating Bible-based lessons into elementary school reading and language arts, sparking controversy.
Serving 2.3 million K-5 students, the curriculum introduces Christian themes like the Sermon on the Mount and da Vinci’s Last Supper, but critics say it lacks balance and could violate the First Amendment.
Supporters argue it reflects America’s Christian cultural roots, while opponents, including parents and educators, warn it may blur lines between education and evangelism.
A final vote is expected soon, with potential nationwide implications.
Republicans making Schools teach THEIR Religion is PROOF that DEMOCRATS are Indoctrinating our Kids!
And this is how people end of stupid and indoctrinated
