I somehow have the feeling that this is simply ragebait... if not, well... can someone please take away the printing press from those people? Please?

Yeah it's not

I mean, this particular image might be, I don't know for sure, bit the content? Yeah, that's what the Bible thumpers wants taught.

Fuck Christianity, fuck all religions, it's the main cause of most of all suffering in world history

America is fucking weird... you guys build the first atomic bomb and brought a man to the moon and then something like THAT appears.

Regarding religion, well, I had a catholic upbringing and nobody, really nobody would have teached some horseshit like that.

It's worth remembering that this is not the type of textbook used in American public schools and most American students do not attend weird private religious schools. I was also raised as a Catholic and learning about science (including evolution through natural selection, of course) was always encouraged. Evangelicals are nuts.

American Evangelical Christianity is what most of Lemmy users seem to really hate. They know nothing about Orthodox or other kinds of Christianity.

Unfortunately, this appears to be real.

JFC, it's real. Someone posted a link to purchase the book off Amazon below. I'm gobsmacked.
