A Utah lawmaker is no longer pushing for public schools to display a copy of the Ten Commandments but wants to add other biblical precepts and the Magna Carta to the curriculum.

Utah teens (grade 9-12) are already often forced (by parents) into taking a full class period for Mormon learning (called Seminary). Students have to leave the school campus to go to a Mormon church owned building, often right next door, for the class as it is not permitted to be taught on campus (for obvious reasons).
The main reason for this is some countries require formal religious “training” before allowing someone to prosthelytize, so the Mormons start early to ensure kids can go on their “mission” at the fresh age of 18.
Not surprised to see them trying to slowly push stuff into the regular classroom, smhmh.
