The requirement forces Oklahoma teachers to "reference" the role of the Ten Commandments in America's founding, so as a historian & teacher, let me offer this suggestion: "Although some idiots today insist that the Founding Fathers were inspired by the Ten Commandments, they absolutely were not."

Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters issued this memo today requiring teachers in all schools to keep a Bible in their classroom and teach from it as a historical document. (Via KOCO 5 News)

It's not specific about which Bible. So I assume a screenplay of Barbie, with the title replaced with "Bible" should suffice.

Wonderful that we can fund bibles in classrooms but not pencils or notebooks.
