The U.S. Supreme Court has thoroughly weakened the separation of church and state in the U.S. and now Florida is taking the next step.
From Axios -
Florida training program: "Misconception" that founders wanted separation of church and state
A new civics training program for public school teachers in Florida says it is a “misconception” that “the founders desired strict separation of church and state,” the Washington Post reports.
Driving the news: That and other content in a state-sponsored training course has raised eyebrows among some who have participated and felt it was omitting unflattering information about the country's founders, pushing inaccuracies and centering religious ideas, per the Post.
- The Constitution explicitly bars the government from “respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." Scholars interpret the passage to require a separation of church and state, per the Post.
- In another example, the training states that George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were against slavery, while omitting the fact that each owned enslaved people.
Guessing that when this scheme makes it to AZ, they'll NEVER teach the religions of the Navajo, Apache, Yaqui, Hopi, Havasupai, Yavapai, Pima, Tohono O'odham, etc., peoples.
Much less Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Satanism, Pastafarianism, etc.
