As Dawkins has stated in his ulterior motive, I'm afraid that teachers will teach this not without bias, but that it is a ridiculous piece of text which will distort the students' ability to decipher for himself. Hopefully God will work out what is meant for evil into good.

Or they could just teach it like a great and influential piece of literature, as they should. I think doing this opens up a lot of cans of worms, as some teachers would be opposed to teaching the Bible, some might see it as an opportunity to force Christianity on their students, and everything in between.

I think that's great news! If I had a nickel for every story I heard about someone who set out to disprove the bible by reading it, and then became believers, I'd still not be rich. But I'd have a lot of nickels. :lol:
Like you said Mariolee, may God use this for His good will to be done.

The days of teaching the Bible as great literature have been over for more than 50 years.

I'm surprised that the Bible is being distributed to schools in a Muslim country, namely the UK. Bizarre. Very bizarre.
