What are we gonna do now? Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
'Cause they're working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!
When we're working for the clampdown
We will teach our twisted speech To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men To be young believers
And if Tennessee came out and said "Christianity is now the state religion" I'd agree. But a book is not a religion despite it's ties to one.
I'm sure people would have complained if we'd picked some Christian Fiction book as well. Imagine if the "Left Behind" books had been chosen? Would that have been the same?

You should learn how our court systems work. Birth control policies were stricken from the ACA mandate because of people's religions. The Supreme court couldn't rule against these people's faith with well established facts because it would then be ruling these people's faith wrong. Which is unconstitutional.
See how these people will get an inch that we will never get back.
This is as important as having a state bird or state fish. It will have no impact on the lives of people its just a symbolic gesture people need to calm down.

Basically a set of Christian Fiction depicting the world after the Rapture. It's very much a book that you would only enjoy as a Christian. Much is made of prayer and God. While it's not a religious text it's basically 12 books all saying "Either follow Christ or bad things happen."
“The rains have ceased, and we have been graced with another beautiful day. But you are not here to see it.”
There is no one "Christian Church". It's a generalization encompassing many different religious establishments. Which adhere to certain teachings in the bible to varying degrees. But I mean, Scientology adheres to the writings of some shitty sci-fi author. Does that make Battlefield Earth a "Holy Book" by default?
