One of our country's tenants is Freedom of Religion...meaning...if you would like your kid to learn about the Bible in school, you are FREE to send them to a private school which offers Theology classes.

If kids are to be brainwashed it should be the parent's choice.

This is why we separate church and state.

I'd also add that children can read Bible's in public school, just as inmates may read Bible's...both of which are on their own time.
