Florida man requesting removal of Bible from schools

FLORIDA — A self-described political stunt activist, Chaz Stevens, has announced that he has sent demand letters to superintendents in 14 Florida school districts — including Miami-Dade and Broward County Public Schools – to remove the Bible from the classroom and school library immediately.

In addition, he demands the removal of all instructional materials that reference the Bible.

Citing Florida’s recently enacted HB 1467, Stevens’ organization, the Florida non-profit Schadenboner Incorporated, notes the inclusion of unfitting topics, such as age-appropriateness, wokeness, and social-emotional learning, as proof of the Bible’s unsuitability for children, said Schadenboner Incorporated.

“With the constant babbling concerns about teaching Critical Race Theory, should we not take stock of the Bible’s position on slavery? I am concerned our young white students will read such passages and wake up to civilization’s sordid past,” Stevens said in the letter, followed by a passage from Ephesians that speaks of slaves and servants obeying their masters.

“Why we’re at it, why not ban disco along with math books, as both ideas seem equally and utterly stupid?” he wrote.

Over the coming weeks, the organization said Schadenboner Incorporated plans to ramp up its efforts, filing similar requests with all of the state’s school districts.
