Having lived in Idaho, it's a beautiful, safe, outdoorsy state with wonderful people. Unfortunately between this, the GOP governor debate, and Larry Craig, their politics continue to be their downfall. But of course Louisiana can relate.

When are people of faith and people of no faith going to realize that science and faith are completely separate entities? No science in Sunday school and no Bibles in science class, please!

That's about the stupidest thing I ever heard. If, when I was a child, I was allowed to decide what I wanted to learn and believe, I would not be able to do "cipherin'", and my literary knowledge would be limited to biographies of my favorite athletes, Stephen King, and Penthouse Forum ( ).

Please dont tell me you took what I said serious

And I was more of a hustler guy. Wouldn't have minded that being incorporated into my studies. Would have been an easy A+.

No. Just no.

The Bible has no place in a public school, unless you are teaching a religious history class.

Good. This is a Christian nation founded on the bible, why wouldn't we teach it in schools? And how come history isn't on that list?

I agree. If you allow one religious doctrine in school you better allow all of them

The religious know that way fewer people would adopt their faith if they are not exposed to it in childhood.

Which is why it's so important we teach it in schools.

You have to get them indoctrinated early, before the critical thinking skills are developed. You can't go into something like that thinking logically.
