If you constantly complain that public schools are failing at teaching basic subjects, PLEASE explain a) how teaching the Bible will correct that, and b) WHY the schools won't screw up teaching religion when teachers who aren't TRAINED in religion, but are trained in teaching other subjects, are failing at teaching the subjects they are trained in. I'm baffled by this.
