The Arkansas state legislature is currently working on a bill that would
allow academic study of the Bible in public schools. School districts
throughout the state would create their own curriculum for such a course
and they would be held to the same standards as all other courses.

Arkansas is not the first state to attempt to adopt such legislation.
Earlier this year, Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona signed such
legislation into law.

South Carolina, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, and Oklahoma also allow such
courses to be taught. All these courses, however, must adhere to federal
regulations maintaining religious neutrality. In other words, they can
teach it in an academic manner, but cannot teach it as God’s Word.

Well, of course. Arkansas, Arizona, South Carolina, Georgia, Texas,
Tennessee and which states are next? Alabama and Mississippi?
