The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.

In a letter dated April 19th, Chaz Stevens, an artist and Florida's resident political stunt activist, requested the Miami-Dade County Public Schools and Broward County Public Schools ban the Bible. According to Pen America, Florida has the third-highest number of banned books, most of which touch on race, sexuality, sexual orientation, and gender identity. In his letter to Jose Dotres, MDCPS's superintendent, Stevens eloquently described that the Bible contains "age inappropriateness, social-emotional learning, mentions of bestiality and rape." Stevens stated, "As is often the case with banned books, I ask your agency lay flame to that giant stack of fiction in a pyre worthy of a Viking sendoff.” He also challenged the appropriateness of teaching Bible's position on slavery, stating that if white students “read such passages.. [they may] wake up to civilization’s sordid past,” and this would be too “woke” for a state so preoccupied with Critical Race Theory (CRT). Stevens commented that "The government can't pick and choose religion, but can they choose which books they review for banning and which ones they don't."
