Do we need the Bible in schools?
The only thing that I can remember about learning the moral behaviors of humans in everyday life is listening to my parents saying, “Remember: be nice to the other kids at school and remember to share.” Even though I went to a private school where we sang prayers and read sections of the Bible everyday, i remember none of that. My parents were the biggest influeces on me becoming a “good” (verses evil) person. The 10 commandments state the basic rules of mankind. The constitution basically states these aswell and it applies to all religions. Even if we did have the Bible readings at school, would kids pay attention to lessons learned from the Bible stories when they can figure out what good and evil is, based on experiece?
Good last sentence/question, I totally agree I think kids would be able to learn from their own experiences and a book does not need to tell you how you should behave. That can be learned from guidance of parents or elders. NICE! bye
