So studying a religious text, which btw was one important to the culture of the founding peoples of the country is indoctrination?

Yeah actually. Do you know what kind of hell would be raised if the Quran became required reading for public schools. Not being forced to study a certain religion is literally the whole point even if nobody’s forced to ‘believe it’ lmfaoo

So make it required by law to read excerpts from the Torah and Quran. If thats the defense you're trying to use.

You could do that in certain states. Good luck though, might be hard to find reasonable context outside of the world religions class.

I think you're missing the point. And not understanding how malleable the minds are of children.

Yes they are malleable. They can absorb lots of information, that’s why we teach young

the founding peoples of the country who explicitly defined separation of church and state. the founding peoples who were not all christian and those that were were not the same type. what bible should we be teaching then if it was a part of their “culture,” should we tell the children that they started their days with beer and were a bunch of drunk young men? if we’re having the kids literally read the bible for it then we should also let the kids drink the beer as it was a part of the culture.

You’re conflating learning about a culture and participating in it. Also, as far as I’m concerned, the separation of church and state in the constitutional sense applies exclusively to federal government.

I mean I suppose you can do it like that if you want absolutely no substance at all in a subject. What if for WW1 I just said it was “a big war with a lot of trenches”.

Well it was but world war 1 was started by the Austro-Hungarian empire because s bunch of Serbian military officers calling themselves the black hand decided they were going to kill the crown prince which set in motion a chain of events that led to the war. The assassination was actually 112 years ago tomorrow. The existing alliances turned into a global war when they failed to stop it from spiraling out of control.
