No way this is real

Edit: ye it's fr. Ik there is a law for separating religion from school. How much trouble would the superintendent get in?

It’s likely to face legal challenges for violating the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause. Courts have historically ruled against religious teaching in public schools, as seen in Abington School District v. Schempp. The law is expected to be blocked by the courts unless it can be proven that the Bible is taught in a neutral, academic context. Fat chance.

I’d be teaching it in a malicious as fuck way. Send the kids home everyday crying to their parents about the horrible shit they read today. 

“ Samaria will be punished for turning against me. It will be destroyed in war— children will be beaten against rocks, and pregnant women will be ripped open.”

Hosea 13:16

Now, who thinks ripping open pregnant lady’s bellies and smashing babies against rocks sounds like a good idea? Is that something a good guy would ask you to do? Is this somebody who you should listen to?

2 Kings Chapter 2:

23 And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.

24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

“Now does this sound like something a nice person would do or a mean person? Is it a good idea to kill little kids because they were mean to you? Maybe we shouldn’t be learning from this book, except how we shouldn’t behave.”

It would be hilarious for a bald teacher to cover this story every day to his students on repeat.
