This war has been going on for at least 150 years.  The Protestants have always wanted to get the Bible into public schools.

Here's a link to an article from the December 31, 1871, edition of the New York Times about this issue  = http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-fre...838A669FDE

The Catholics were fighting to keep the Bible out of the schools.
