You can’t even read the Bible as literature in schools these days.

Oklahoma Schools ditch Bible Elective Curriculum after Pressure

It may be the Good Book, but it’s getting a bad rap in Oklahoma. Just months after being the first district to adopt a new Bible as literature curriculum, the Mustang School District is scrapping the idea — dashing the hopes of a community anxious to take an objective look at the Book America was founded on. For the Hobby Lobby owners behind the idea, it was a surprise blow.

As most people remember, the Green family is best known for its Christian faith, taking it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court for a landmark win against the HHS mandate. This year, the family was hoping to give students a deeper look at the important role that faith played in shaping Western Civilization and America through an elective class on the Bible. For now, those hopes are on hold after the suburban district caved to another campaign of intimidation from the Freedom From Religion Foundation. Despite being completely optional the curriculum came under fire from the politically-correct crowd for daring to discuss the most influential religious text in world history.
