Stop This Feakazoid Abomination Now

Yep, it passed the state Senate with all but one of the "Democrats" going along with Kentucky's Xian Taliban.

The state Senate overwhelmingly approved a bill Thursday that would give public schools guidelines for teaching the Bible as an elective social studies course.

One senator, Democrat Kathy Stein of Lexington, voted against Senate Bill 142.

Stein said she knew proponents of the measure had the best intentions but questioned its constitutionality. She also said public schools already teach comparative religion courses.

The primary sponsor of the bill, Democratic Sen. David Boswell of Owensboro, said it would let the state Board of Education come up with regulations to guide public schools as they “teach students knowledge of biblical content, characters, poetry and narratives that are prerequisites to understanding contemporary society and culture.”

Boswell said school-based decision-making councils would decide whether the course would be taught. He said it is needed to make children more aware of the role of the Bible in history, literature and culture.

Some critics of the bill have said it is “a back-door approach” to teach religion.

I'd call it more a reaming with an unlubricated barbed giant dildo up the ass of the Constitution. And only the state House can stop it now.

Don't count on those cowards who pretend to be Democrats - start calling and writing now:
