Commentary

On 2011-01-11 anonymous user 72.219.133.195 changed "the informal classroom insertion of religious education within public schools in the United States, violating the separation of church and state required by the constitution" to "the appropriate and lawful inclusion of teaching about Judeo-Christian history, thought, and values in public schools in the United States". This change requires evidence that the teachings GtBE is promoting are not in conflict with separation of church and state, otherwise it would be unconstitutional to teach them. --Woozle 13:59, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

• 2008-01-11 [Talk|Index] Gateway To Confusion: Religious Right Group Jumps All Over Americans United § “I know a few things about the agenda of Gateways and its allies, since I've been exposing it for 20 years. One of Gateway's most appalling stunts occurred in the early '90s when the group issued a booklet called "Bunny Goes to School." It featured a talking Easter Bunny who visits a public school teacher and advises her on ways to teach about Easter in the classroom. The bunny tells the teacher, for example, that there's no problem teaching the children about Christ's resurrection.”
