"Kentucky has signed a law allowing public, state-funded schools to teach courses on the Bible.

Governor Matt Bevin participated in the bill signing ceremony in the state capitol building which opened with a Christian prayer.

State Representative DJ Johnson said the Bible “really did set the foundation that our founding fathers used to develop documents like the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights,” local news station WDRB-TV reported.

The class would be an elective, not a requirement for students and each local school board has the option to offer the class or not.”*
