President Trump on Monday embraced proposals from lawmakers in six states that would allow public schools to offer Bible literacy classes.
The president’s tweet came shortly after the subject was discussed on “Fox & Friends.”
“Numerous states introducing Bible Literacy classes, giving students the option of studying the Bible. Starting to make a turn back? Great!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

Trump’s tweet came roughly a half-hour after North Dakota state Rep. Aaron McWilliams (R) appeared on “Fox & Friends.” McWilliams is co-sponsoring a measure in North Dakota to support Bible literacy classes.
Similar measures have been introduced in Missouri, Indiana, West Virginia, Virginia and Florida.
USA Today reported that the proposals would require or encourage public schools to offer elective classes on the Bible, with a focus on its historical significance.
Critics of the measures have argued that they could violate the constitutional separation between church and state, USA Today reported.
Trump has often courted the support of evangelical leaders, with many defending him despite criticism over his rhetoric toward immigrants and on the campaign trail.
Sounds like a BONANZA for the legal profession to me, and even now I can see the litigation documents flying for years and years … can you spell CaChing CaChing !!!

Probably a slick way to indoctrinate the goyim into the history of the middle east and how the chosen ones should be entitled to take it ALL back by any means necessary like killing them as they are doing now.
Oh Boy!!!

More Reality TV, this time for Christian Zionists. Yep, Galen is probably right–Scofield Reference Bible. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out when the next lesson is on evolution…
Bible electives based on historical significance? Yep, it’s all about Israel and the Chosenites….to heck with the significance of Christ.
