NewsChannel 5.com – Nashville, Tennessee - School Board Meets About Possible Bible Class

I'm trying to stay away from religious issues on this blog. There's just too many cackling lackwits over here to keep up with.

However, this story could not be overlooked, thanks to one line which, if it's not a typo, perfectly describes how religious asshats really think (emphasis mine, the article doesn't seem to notice this one):

"The Bible was the first textbook in our educational system, and so to really be well rounded, well balanced, and well education, you need to know about the Bible," Redmon said.

Seems like Mr. Redmon could do with reading some textbooks other than the Bible. May I suggest The American Heritage Book of English Usage: A Practical and Authoritative Guide to Contemporary English, perhaps?
