Owens is referring to Abington School District v. Schempp, the 1963 Supreme Court decision that ended school-sponsored Bible readings in public schools. “School-sponsored” is an important distinction to make because all it means is that Christianity can’t be treated like a school’s official religion. Given that students of all faiths and no faith attend public school, it’s absurd to pretend Christianity represents everybody.

Fucking gaslighting lying assholes the lot of em (Republicans if that wasn’t clear).

This was a ruling on separation of church and state so schools couldn’t make people read the Bible ffs. Not banned.
