Public schools in Oklahoma will soon be teaching the Bible, thanks to a new state requirement that classifies it as a foundational historical text.
Superintendent Ryan Walters announced Thursday during a meeting of the state’s Board of Education that every public school teacher will soon be required to have a Bible in their classroom.
Although the First Amendment forbids government entities from favoring one religion over others, Walters claims he based his decision on a state statute regarding historical documents, and noted the Bible is a document that has some significance to the foundation of America, according to Tulsa CBS affiliate KOTV.
