Lol this should be a simple, non-controversial take and everyone is in here making every possible effort to misunderstand what TC is suggesting. Y'all must think the Bible is incredibly persuasive if you're afraid of teaching about it in a secular, historical context.

It's a controversial take because the proposition even if we try to assume the TC has innocent motives, isn't possible to be secular for "historical context."

For example, the focus on the Bible. Whether it's by conscious or sub conscious efforts, a focus on the importance of the Bible over the many other religions was made. Or the fact you may say it should be taught secularly and let's go ahead and pretend your genuine, the problem is what would actually happen is specific religions will get taught to be mostly good while glossing over the bad. All while teaching specific religions like Islam to be mostly bad while glossing over any good. That's not even getting into schools won't cover many religions.

No one is misunderstanding the TC. We just don't agree at all that religious text needs to be taught in school as everyone here who is disagreeing with the TC sees the clear problems that would inevitably happen. No matter what, preferential and skewed treatment would happen even if the institution claims they aren't.

Throw that shit in college. College it can be taught as an option, but definitely shouldn't be mandatory to grade school.
