How could thay take the Bible out of the schools when the Constitution was written from the Bible?

They didn't.What was taken out of the schools as a result of the 1962 Engel v. Vitale Supreme Court decision was involuntary prayer, and what was taken out of schools as a result of the 1963 Abington Township School District v. Schempp decision was involuntary Bible reading. But the Bible itself is still available in most school libraries for anyone who wishes to read it.The Bible is not relevant to the teaching of academic subjects such as mathematics and science, so it is quite properly not part of the curriculum in those classes. To the extent that the Bible is relevant to a subject -- such as, for instance, in the teaching of literature -- it can be used in classes.While many of the people involved in American history have been Christians, the Bible was not used as a reference or guide in the writing of the US constitution. Therefore there is little point (other than attempting to instill sectarian beliefs) in using the Bible in such classes.
