Politicians now feel comfortable claiming God as their ally because \u201che said so.\u201d Without having ever critically engaged Scripture, or even having read it in its original languages, those in positions of public trust know enough to flaunt it. And it always scores points with Americans. Liberals fear the ramifications of using the Bible while Neo-Cons charge bravely ahead to places Noah himself would fear to go. Maybe it\u2019s time to put the Bible back in the schools. Only this time it should be taught by people who realize that the Enlightenment has taken place and that we can\u2019t rely on magic to save us from dangerous situations we ourselves have created.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
