North Carolina Considering Bringing Bibles Into Schools

North Carolina is considering a new bill that would bring Bibles into schools.

Under the new bill school districts would be able to decide if they wanted to allow Bible classes in schools.

The classes would be electives, for credit, and in no way be required.

Bipartisan support has already been raised for the bill.

Opponents worry about how it maintains the separation of church and state.

Supporters say that since it is an elective it is acceptable.

It is unclear when the bill would be finally voted on, but if passed the Bible classes would begin in the fall.
