Quote:Texas textbooks once again pushing exaggerated claims about religion’s role in US history

Another burden for American students to overcome is having text books written by total fucking assholes.

It baffles me that one state is making textbooks for the whole country.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

So, you don't really care about historical accuracy as long as your religion is inserted into the textbooks. It's all about scoring a point against "the other team"! Proper, well researched and accurate education resources be damned.

Liars and revisionists are the good guys now? Lies are the truth?

Drippy thinks its his duty to lie for his fucking god.

Drippy isn't really very big on those fucking commandments of his. He's more from the Josef Goebbels school.

Why don't they shove the textbooks up their asses?

Well, at least you're now admitting that you're happy accepting demonstrably false claims, and pretending that they're true, just so long as they align with your unthinking ideological agenda.

Yet more reason not to take anything you say remotely seriously, I guess. Rolleyes

Edited to add: Oh, not to mention selling out the education of children to advance the cause of your church. You're a real piece of work. Dodgy

This is also the state that voted to remove mention of institutional racism, and to remove Thomas Jefferson from the curriculum of influential political philosophers because he was for separation of church and state.

I have come to expect stupid from Texas, even if they do have nice roads.
