    This is wonderful. Churches are one place where the 1st Amendment is so mighty that even the current Supreme Court would be reluctant to weaken it for the sake of politics; they can teach whatever they like and Ron DeSantis can’t do a damn thing about it, and I hope they take full advantage of that.

    (Perhaps some progressive white churches might join them in teaching about Black history and gender issues and other stuff students are no longer allowed to learn about in school)

    Just don’t be gay. It’s weird to think of churches as places of learning instead of centers fostering bigotry and hate, but I have to applaud them for stepping in on this issue at least.

      Historically churches have been both; by being the main source of knowledge, is how they can control and shape people’s perception of “right and wrong”.
