Since the Bible was one of the books used in the early schools how is it today that no mention of Jesus or God is allowed in the public schools?
Jesus and "God" are terms particular to one religion; allowing one to be placed above the other in a secular state is against the idea of religious freedom.
Answer:For the same reason that the Koran or Torah or other religious writings aren't.Amongst other rights, the U.S. Constitution guarantees freedom of religion. The Bible, or versions thereof, are (not "God") specific to the various Christian faiths.
Selecting out or using the Bible, or any other text specific to any religion, could be construed as promoting that religion over others, which would contravene this guarantee.
