I realise that's just my own opinion - others may not agree (did I say may?) - LOL.

I feel an important subject like religion must be taught by state-run schools or they run the risk of leaving their pupils at a distinct disadvantage to children educated in other schools. Would you teach children Darwinian theories of evolution without even a nod towards competing theories such as Creationism?

The United States Constitution, our founding document cares about the seperation of church and state making it federal law
Yes it matter, who pays salaries, the state is prohbitied by seperation of paying the salaries of those who teach relgion, if i have a child in public school, it is MY job not that of a public school to teach my child religion, my job to decide what religion they should follow not the schoold job to tell my child they MUST study the bible, not all students are of Christian Decent, thus Bible study would not apply to them since they have other beiefs
