Chuck Norris: Bringing the Bible back into schools
Three hundred eighty-two public school districts have voted to
implement a course on it.
Over 1,350 schools in 37 states can now offer it as a textbook.
Approximately 190,000 students have already been taught from it
as a course curriculum.
I'm talking about the Bible in public school. It's no joke!
And I want to help you get a course on it offered in your school
district, too.

- For the 1st hundred years of our country, the Bible was used as a textbook in schools as part of the reading program. It was used to help teach kids how to read. This made it and the morals it holds, part of the education system. Think about that one.

- "[W]here is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation deserts the oaths...?" --George Washington (1796) Damn Straight, George. Where is security for life, limb, and pursuit of happiness when religious obligations take precedence over human rights?

- "The Bible is the best of all books, for it is the word of God... Continue therefore to read it and to regulate your life by its precepts." --John Jay (1784) "Religion is the only solid basis of good morals; therefore education should teach the precepts of religion and the duties of man towards God." --Gouverneur Morris (1791) "[W]here is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation deserts the oaths...?" --George Washington (1796) "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." --John Adams (1798) "[T]he only foundation for a useful education in a republic is to be laid in religion. Without this there can be no virtue, and without virtue there can be no liberty, and liberty is the object and life of all republican governments." --Benjamin Rush (1806) Washington's quote in context: "Where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths which are the instruments of investigation in courts of justice? And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle." He concluded, "Virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government. The rule, indeed, extends with more or less force to every species of free government. Who that is a sincere friend to it can look with indifference upon attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric?"
