Tennessee School District Will Ban Gideon Bible Distribution In Classroooms

The Tennessean reported Tuesday that White County (TN) school officials have agreed to ban the Gideons from distributing Bibles in school classrooms.  The ACLU raised the issue after it received a complaint about Bibles being distributed at an elementary school in Doyle, TN, some 100 miles east of Nashville. A student says she did not want to take a Bible, but felt pressured into coming up and accepting it. [Thanks to Alliance Alert for the lead.]
