David Cortman: Does AU favor banning works of Western Civilization from Idaho?s public school and college classrooms?

By ADF Alliance Alert

ADF attorney David Cortman writes at the Christian Post Advancing Religious Liberty Blog: ". . . The State of Idaho has ordered that 'no religious documents or text' may be used in any public school in the state, period. That not only includes the religious texts mentioned above, but also many canons of Western Civilization and great literary works, such as those written by Homer, Augustine, and Luther . . . I would hope that AU itself does not support such a broad ban on an entire category of books. Does anyone really want that for the future of our public schools? . . . Like most other times AU takes a swing at constitutional analysis, all that's left is a whiff...of censorship."
