“The bill…specifies that the curriculum cannot feature one religion more than another.”
An Equal Time For Baphomet bill?

I find it particularly entertaining when the Satanists roll out their arguments that they should be included and the sponsors of these bills stroke out…

Hey Governor, the Pilgrims didn’t “Leave Europe” they were KICKED OUT OF EUROPE by both the Dutch and the British because they were considered Religious Lunatics in both countries.
Once they got here, they PROVED THEM RIGHT by slaughtering the Indians who saved them from starvation and later engaging in an orgy of religious insanity by BURNING EACH OTHER AT THE STAKE for alleged Witchcraft.

Makes Islam look pretty good.
Is Tennessee is trying to out-crazy and and out-stupid Texas simultaneously?

Butt deleted the post and said that NAAWP stood for the "National Association for the Advancement of Western Peoples."

Of course it did. No one thought it meant anything else.

Too much of THAT religion in the schools. So here’s a law to ban ALL religion in schools…I mean here’s a bill to allow SOME religion in schools, so long as it’s the right kind. C’mon, teachers, do I really have to spell it out for you?

If the governor is skeptical, then he’s obviously not conservative enough. Proceed with impeachment!

I think you may be conflating Nathaniel Hawthorne and the Puritan settlements centered on Boston and its western and northern environs, such as Salem, with the much smaller Pilgrim colony centered around Plymouth and Cape Cod. The Pilgrims had generally mutually good and beneficial relations for decades with the Indian groups they rubbed shoulders with.
And while the Puritans did deplorably nasty things, even to each other, no one (including Indians) was burned at the stake during the Salem witchcraft troubles, nor on any other occasion. I think.

“Sanest person in TN governance” is still no different than “smartest kid on the shorty bus.”

“more concerned with teaching the practices of Islam than the history of Christianity”
Ummm…when is TPTM or anyone else in the MSM going to bother to correct this by pointing out that the school had taught the history/practices of Christianity the previous grade? Oh wait…that’s right…never…
Moving on…

“I don’t know how you talk about the founding of America, and what became of the United States, without talking about religious doctrine,” Haslam told reporters, according to the Associated Press. “Now, that’s very different than indoctrinating, or teaching that doctrine as truth.”
That should be obvious enough, but apparently it’s not.
