Ryan Valentine: Turning Public School Into Sunday School: Long a contentious venue for church-state issues, public schools have become the front line in Texas’ “culture war”. The religious right is busy dreaming up new ways to introduce religious ideology into the classroom: creationism (or intelligent design) into biology textbooks; stripping out all disease prevention and family planning from health textbooks in favor of abstinence-only instruction; elective courses in the Bible, many of them devotional in nature; teaching fundamentalist, Protestant beliefs as fact. Come hear what you can do to protect the line separating church and state in our neighborhood schools.   [25:11]
