No, just say Protestant. Since we are still a Protestant nation I don’t think that using the standard King James version of the bible in most schools would be a big deal, especially in Texas.

The King James bible has been the bible of choice for 400 years in America.

Usually this claim that it is impossible to settle on a bible (using the Catholic version if a school district chooses) is brought up by liberals trying to fight Christianity.

I don't think one could just say "protestant" as many of the faiths that you could put in that category interpret many passages differently. Very differently in some of those cases.

Now hold on just a minute there, pal. Who you callin' "liberal?" ;o)
