Honestly, the whole idea of mandating Bibles in public schools feels like government overreach to me

It’s not the state’s job to dictate religious materials in schools—people should be free to explore their own beliefs, or none at all, without government interference. Forcing religion into public institutions funded by taxpayer dollars just violates the principle of personal freedom. Let parents and students make their own choices about what they want to believe or study. Plus, if we start with Bibles, where does it end? Will the state start mandating other religious texts or ideologies too? The government should stay out of people's personal beliefs and focus on protecting individual liberty, not pushing a specific agenda.
