Bible is finally banned in Utah elementary/middle schools for vulgarity and violence!

[Triumph1300]

Do you know that the majority of pedophiles are actually straight people?

And?

Should people become homosexuals/drag queens in order to avoid turning into pedophiles?
Is that your opinion? What kind of twisted world are you believing in?

 

[Romanov2488]

Romans 3:23 - All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 2:8 - For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

So a pedophile who puts his faith into Jesus will be saved but not the atheist child?

This is utter bs when there is in fact, many more pedophiles on your side of the aisle. People become homosexuals and drag queens because that’s who they are inside. Homosexuals just aren’t attracted to women. And drag queens have been around since ancient times. Why is that so hard to understand?

Utah district bans Bible in elementary and middle schools 'due to vulgarity or violence'

The Good Book is being treated like a bad book in Utah after a parent frustrated by efforts to ban materials from schools convinced a suburban district that some Bible verses were too vulgar or violent for younger children. And the Book of Mormon could be next. The Davis School District north of...

A parent complained that it wasn’t age appropriate for kids. I agree. It is filled with genocide, incest, and infanticide (story of Lot, anyone?). Another win for modern, secular society. Kids need to be left alone and not indoctrinated with Bronze Age thinking until they develop their critical thinking skills later on.

It is not a win for secular society. Sixty years ago they took prayer out of schools. I don"t remember any teacher every teaching from the Bible. Only Catholic schools did that. Public school was about reading, writing, arithmetic, history, science, etc. Religion in the last century was always left up to the parents and Sunday school.
This action won't effect God's plan to call every single one of His sheep written in the Book of Life at the given time. Christianity is moving along wonderfully regardless of secular, antichristian trends.
Actually atheism has gone nowhere in the last 150 years. 10% of Americans, and btw 10% of the world population are atheists. That percentage has not really changed any. Darwinism, regardless of them shoving it down kids throats, is just a temporary snag, the Devil's trap that many fall into but end up climbing out of when God shows them the LIGHT.
Of course fools like Stephen Hawking went to his death confounded, but he was already judged in his life!
No worries, Christianity is right on track with 2.65 billion believers.

Considering how Evangelicals in the US lean to the right politically, I find it ironically amusing that we expect the Government to do our evangelism for us. That's OUR job.

How did we get to be so lazy and entitled?

Oh, well. Any kid with access to a computer or a smart phone can read the Bible online.

 

[Lambano]

Rape? Incest? Wars? Massacres? Brutality? Slavery? The Bible does tell the truth about what we really are. In case anyone still has any illusions about the goodness of Man that haven't already been dispelled by watching the 11:00 news.

Utah district returns Bible to school libraries after reversal of parent-led ban

Davis school district, north of Salt Lake City, voted unanimously to accept recommendation by subcommittee to reinstate book

www.theguardian.com

The fact that the ban was promptly reversed and Bibles were returned to school libraries made no difference to the OP.

 

[Matthias]

Do students check out / read the Bible in their school libraries? They have the right and the ability to, but do they?

 

[Believer112]

else they’ll burn is not

God loves you so much that He allows you to choose. He won't force you to be with Him. Hell was created for the devil and his angels because they did not want anything to do with God. You keep mentioning children but God loves the children and they won't be separated (hell) from God.

Isn't Utah dominated by the Morman beliefs?

Isn't Utah dominated by the Morman beliefs?

Yes. Do you think that’s why the ban was reversed, the books were placed back in the libraries and the atheist didn’t want to talk about it?

Welcome to the forum.

Well, in my humble opinion, Christian parents of elementary and middle school going children have more than enough opportunities outside the public school system to let their children read the Holy Bible as much as they like.

Also, there are special Catholic or Christian elementary and middle schools available for this purpose.

I hope that these Bible classes in public schools are optional?

 

[A shy girl Chloë]

But it is ok to have drag queens come into public schools and indoctrinate children?

In my humble opinion, drag queens in public schools are not OK, either, and many non-Christian parents have been protesting this, too.

 

[Believer112]

Yes. Do you think that’s why the ban was reversed, the books were placed back in the libraries and the atheist didn’t want to talk about it?

Welcome to the forum.

Maybe. Thanks

Do they allow the book of Mormon or the Koran? The shame charges can be used against it.

Welcome to the Salt Lake City School District Library Catalog

I used their catalog to see that the Bible is still there.

Do you know there’s far more priests who have molested children?

Clergy members are not more likely to molest children than any other occupations where adults have power over children, and are far less likely to abuse children than public school teachers.

When the new generation of heathen fill the land it is in my hopes that they do the atheist here great harm!

For what purpose do you hope “the new generation of heathen” will do “great harm” to the atheist?

Humans are animalistic in their minds. Some are better than others.
