The Bible is pre-Constitution also, but it is unconstitutional to READ OR DISTRIBUTE it in public schools.

THAT is the issue; not whether the document itself is unconstittutional.

Sheesh.

I don't know about distributing it, but it is NOT unconstitutional to read Bible passages in the public schools. You just can't preach it. You have to teach "the Bible as literature," rather than the Bible as truth.
