2. Or vice-versa. Either way, it's indoctrination.

Kentucky is a hotbed of right-wing Southern Baptist preachers, each of whom seeks to stuff children's heads full of Jesus.

In such states, "religion education" will never be objective, nor will it simply describe a broad range of religious beliefs to inform, rather than indoctrinate. Instead, the schools will pretend to do so, while bringing Southern Baptist Sunday School into public school classrooms.

The ACLU knows this and is vigilant, but the problem persists on a perpetual basis.

Believing that religionists and the ACLU have any common goals is a fallacy, regardless of what some writer for religionnews.com has to say. There is no common ground between the two. Just a gaping chasm.
