Quote:"Even the math. If you look at the math book, it ties in biblical concepts. It teaches the children all the concepts they need to know, but it ties in that Christian part of it. The biblical aspect of it," said Hodder.
The math based on the Bible:
According to the Bible, a male slave costs fifty shekels of silver, and a female slave costs thirty shekels of silver. How many slaves can Bob buy with two hundred twenty shekels?
The compensation for an ox goring a male or female slave to death is thirty shekels of silver. Bart had five of his slaves gorged to death. How much shekels should he get?
A woman is filthy for seven days after her period. Annie had her period three days ago. How many more days will Annie be filthy?
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"
