Regarding the 3rd question you posted - I would probably answer yes to that myself. I don't have a problem with the bible being discussed in public schools. Knowledge of the bible is an important component to understanding a lot of other subjects, from history to literature. So as the question is posed, yes, I do think public schools should address what's in the bible.

I just don't want it taught as truth or a valid alternative to the theory of evolution.

As well as L. Ron Hubbard's theories on clams and the Piltdown Man in The History of Man? We need to be inclusive!

Of course, that opens the door for the Bhagavad Gita and the Koran ...

Ahh, let's just take a longer recess, kids!
