The Freedom From Religion Foundation has complained to the Jackson County Alabama School Board that elementary school students are attending school assemblies to hear Bible Man tell stories from the Bible and he reportedly passes out free Bibles. He has done this for 30 years.
According to a parent of students who attended the Jackson County schools, she states: In all the years that my children have attended Jackson County schools, the schools have never notified me about "Bible Man" visits. At no point have I been offered the choice to allow my children to attend or not attend when he visits the school.
A clear violation of the 1st Amendment. Nonetheless, there is an abundance of Alabama inbred idiots who think this is just fine, including the School Superintendent and a State Senator.
What I had found amusing is that Scottsboro Alabama has a shameful chapter in their history of acting immoral. Yet you will find the usual comments from people it's the atheists causing immorality, this country is a Christian nation ect.
