Now in Fla

petitions sent to public school superintendents across the state, Chaz Stevens asked the districts to "immediately remove the Bible from the classroom, library, and any instructional material," Stevens wrote in the documents, which were shared with NPR. "Additionally, I also seek the banishment of any book that references the Bible."

His petitions cited a bill signed into law last month by Gov. Ron DeSantis, which lets parents object to educational materials. That bill came about after some parents complained about sexually explicit books being taught in Florida schools.

sounds like chaz is your kind of guy.

if a town wants to ban the bible ( all religious books, more accurately), they can. that’s how democracy works.

the bible was the inspiration for founding this country, for ending slavery, and ending segregation.

books with photos of young boys blowing each other, not so much. .

#^&#^&#^&#^&ty people tend to assume everyone is as #^&#^&#^&#^&ty as them, and would do the same #^&#^&#^&#^&ty things if they had the chance. Or are doing the same #^&#^&#^&#^&ty things already. It makes it much easier to avoid any guilt over being #^&#^&#^&#^&ty.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
