Seen some recent hoopla over teaching bible courses in schools. Can I just take a shit on those peope that champion this right now and get it over with. These assclowns want to treat the bible as this end all uber-important book to mankind and history. Lets say what the bible really is first. A rehash of previous knowledge and thought throughout the ages before its arrival. Condensed and biased to whoever wrote whatever edition you like to read. The bible is not the end all books to all books before its time. First of all, the course should be religious thought and its influences. You can't possible single out the bible as this singular symbol of religion in america. SHit fuck the bible, I wonder how aware people are of the influence of traditional african religions on current religious practices in america. They sure as hell wouldn't champion teaching that. Besides no course would give the treatment the bible deserves. It would sugarcoat everything. It wouldn't give the raw history of the bible. This man puts it nicely

"At this time in America, it's better to simply talk about religious influences when they come up during the study of literature, art, and history, and not take the text of one religious tradition and treat it with special deference."- full article

In fact I like the way he put it so much I'll leave it at that. Just read the parts about the clowns in the article that think biblical literacy is a educational advantage. What a load of happy horseshit. They need to get their noses in books about evolution, that is where the advantage is. Damn assclowns.
