Oh, no! Woman discovers her child can't learn anything smart at religion class
Quote:‘How to torture a Jew’: Bible teacher accused of ‘abrasive’ lesson in middle school class
A mother of a Tennessee middle-schooler accused her daughter’s Bible teacher of teaching students “how to torture a Jew,” according to reports, raising questions about teaching religion in public schools.
The teacher wrote an English translation of the Hebrew name for God on the whiteboard, which is traditionally not spoken out loud by Jews.
“If you want to know how to torture a Jew, make them say this out loud,” the teacher then allegedly told the class, Russo said.
She wrote that The Book of Genesis was taught as the factual story of how the universe was formed. Additionally, she said the correct answer to a test question ”It is important to read the Bible even if you are not Christian or Jewish,” was true.
The class is funded by the century-old nonprofit organization Bible in the Schools, which teaches the class in 29 schools in Hamilton County.
After a neighboring school district banned the Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel “Maus,” Russo said she is concerned that anti-semitism is growing.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
