Texodus: Biblical teaching exodus in Texas.
Texas curriculum teaches kids what matters: God, guns, and glory. No wokeness, just the truth: America is one nation under God.

Texas schools are finally putting the 'right' in right-wing, and the liberals are losing their minds! In a new curriculum for elementary students, the Lone Star State is teaching kids about the good book, and the left-wing media is painting it as some kind of brainwashing.
A recent lesson plan for kindergartners included an art class with a twist of theology. While learning about different inspirations for artists, including religious faith, the little ones got a glimpse of the stories from the Book of Genesis. Now, the left is crying foul, saying it's too much for the Crayola crowd. I mean, what's wrong with teaching kids about the power of God's creation and the mighty flood? It's not like we're teaching them how to shoot guns oranything.
Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has long dreamed of adorning classroom walls with the Ten Commandments, and who can blame him? It's about time we pushed back against the left's agenda and taught kids about the dominant culture in Texas. You're either riding with us or against us.
The curriculum, developed by the Texas Education Agency, even offers an incentive to cash-strapped schools of $60 per student. That's a sweet deal to teach kids about the good news of Christianity! But of course, the liberal media cries foul, saying it's a "financial incentive."
When it comes to a lesson on Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” the lesson plan includes a reading from the Bible. Now, any sensible person would see this as a cool way to teach kids about the New Testament and da Vinci's masterpiece. But the left sees it as pushing an agenda. Give me a break.
The review from the Texas Freedom Network, a left-wing group if there ever was one, claims the curriculum cites the "deep Christian faith" of those against slavery and for racial equality, but where's the love for the Christians who were on the right side of history? Seems like a bit of a double standard if you ask me.
The lessons also teach kids about Religious persecution and freedom, which is absolutely obsessing over America's Christian foundations and the Revolutionary War. But the left doesn't want you to know that. They want to pretend like America isn't a Christian nation. Well, sorry liberals, but we won't let you erase our history!
So, to all the Texans out there, keep fighting the good fight. Don't let the libs take God out of everything. Our schools are for educating, not indoctrinating, kids on the left's warped views.
