Bible class are readily available from most churches, at various times of the day or week, and at multiple reading / literacy levels, and at nominal to sometimes free cost. There is also considerable Bible discussion on television, and the internet. Since the UK had a number of very deadly Catholic vs. Anglican conflicts, a considerable separation of Church and State seems very reasonable to me. There is also the problem with teachers putting a politically correct spin on things... ******* Yeah, I can just see some of my high school teachers trying to teach THIS - from KJV Hosea 1:2 2 - The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, [departing] from the LORD. 3 - So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son Exposition Hosea... bible.org Or how about our friend Onan ? The true meaning is that if the law says you should screw your brother's wife, and get her knocked up, you should do it. Otherwise, "spilling your seed" is no big deal, just clean up after yourselves.... ;-) This from the Net Bible - net.bible.org Gen 38:8 Then Judah said to Onan, “Have sexual relations with 1 your brother’s wife and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her so that you may raise 2 up a descendant for your brother.” 3 (0.53) Gen 38:9 But Onan knew that the child 1 would not be considered his. 2 So whenever 3 he had sexual relations with 4 his brother’s wife, he withdrew prematurely 5 so as not to give his brother a descendant. (0.53) 1Ch 2:3 The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, and Shelah. These three were born to him by Bathshua, 1 a Canaanite woman. Er, Judah’s firstborn, displeased the Lord, so the Lord killed him. 2 (0.40) Gen 38:10 What he did was evil in the Lord’s sight, so the Lord 1 killed him too. ****************** Now how teaching reading, write a coherent paragraph, geography (I can see Russia from my backyard !), arithmetic, algebra, physics, chemistry, and some history ?

Paintbrush this is true "Perhaps the instructor did not understand the meaning of the verses" the problem in public schools is that in most cases the teacher does not understand the meaning of what he teaches and for what purpose he teaches - this is the main cause that most pupils get bored and disenchanted with so many disciplines and ultimately end up in congress and ask question about islands in the pacific ocean which my tip into the see if to many US forces and their families will be deployed there. Or those with a knack of charlatanism end up on Wall Street working for a big financial institution.
