Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.

Not like they all don't have whatever version of it at home anyway. This won't affect them at all.
Not like they're actually reading it or following it (especially the New Testament), regardless of where they have access to it
True. Still, it's ground won against prosthetization. Harder to jam it down school kids throats if it's not allowed in schools.
They will just pass a new law excluding the bible from the previous law...sadly.
Which, when you are doing shit like this in protest, doesn't matter - you simply keep it out of the library even when the law says it's okay. Them doing this already makes them a target among Christians and is malicious compliance.
You still need to pull every punch.
Yeah. They did.
"The district reinstated the Bible soon thereafter, as it announced in a statement on 19 December..."
Still, I feel it's a nice little victory.
Do kids read the bible for fun? Is it like a game of thrones type of thing where they are just in it for the grotesque violence?
