Even fairly good students, when they have obtained the solution of the problem and written down neatly the argument, shut their books and look for something else.

Where it is the majority religion, Islam does not recognize religious freedom, at least not as we understand it. Islam is a different culture.

Walter Kasper

Yes, the Bible should be taught in our schools because it is necessary to understand the Bible if we are to truly understand our own culture and how it came to be.
