Way to go Alabama. I believe there are too many people out there trying to take God out of our lives and it is beginning to show in our country with children taking guns to school, burning schools down and many other things like that.

I believe some reader(s) unfortunately missed the part about this course being an ELECTIVE. Elective meaning your child can choose to take this course if he/she chooses to do so. It is not something that is being forced on children like the THEORY of evolution is being forced on children. I am in my mid thirties and have a brother a couple of years older than me. We were both raised in a Christian home. However, due to his study of evolution, he now questions the Christian beliefs he was raised on. I personally want to see the theory of evolution become and elective for children to take in school. Plain and simple ~ the theory of evolution is just that ~ a THEORY. Why should our children be forced to learn about this theory that goes against their Christian beliefs? Why are the non-believers not forced to learn about God? Non-believers believe the Christian faith is a theory of creation. If the schools are going to make one theory mandatory, should the other not be mandatory as well?

Again, way to go Alabama! Now let us see what we can do about making the theory of evolution an elective as well.
