I do not believe that the Bible should be treated as a textbook. A text book gains authority through careful and tedious research and citations to other credible sources. The Bible can offer no such backing. Some parts of it may possibly be proven through comparing it to texts that were dated as being written at the same time or research in the present day, but this is not sufficient data to use it as a text book. I believe in the words of the Bible because of my faith, which does not need citations or research. But to expect members of an academic community (even that of an elementary school classroom) to believe a text without documentation is just poor scholarship.
