A bill proposed in the West Virginia state Senate would require all schools
in the state to offer an elective course on the Bible, WHSV reported
Monday.

The elective course would have to be offered in both private and public
schools, and could be taught on either the Bible or Hebrew scriptures.

The courses would "teach students knowledge of biblical content,
characters, poetry, and narratives that are prerequisites to understanding
contemporary society and culture,” according to the legislation.

Laws about “religion neutrality” would have to be followed in implementing
the classes, “while accommodating the diverse religious views of students,"
the bill reads.
