    Texas acts as a single school district by setting the curriculum and books buying for the whole state.
    Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

Since 10% of the American people live in that state, and it's significantly wealthier than Texas, it could be the behemoth needed to stop Texan domination of American education. Our kids wouldn't even have to learn about the Alamo anymore.
      How about a coalition of states boycotting those companies which sell school books to Texas? Maybe some states could mandate a section in their US history books explaining that the Texan revolution from Mexico was largely due to their desire to retain their slaves.

      • If a bunch of wackos had total control of the amendments to major textbooks, why no intelligent design?

        Really, the changes are mostly reasonable and entirely meh.

          Your contention is that different aspects of curriculum should exist within the state? I don't agree.

            • Are you really shocked that Sloww doesn't know much about his own state?
