1. “The little Supreme Court in my head says this is OK.”

North Idaho Rep. Sage Dixon, R-Ponderay, the bill’s House sponsor, told the House, “The little Supreme Court in my head says this is OK.”

Dixon and other supporters argued that the Bible is nonsectarian and nondenominational, and that the reason the bill mentions only the Bible and not other religious texts is because the Bible alone is “under attack.” “There are many religions that refer back to the Bible in their tenets,” Dixon said.

Idaho’s Constitution contains far stricter restrictions on the use of religious texts in schools than the U.S. Constitution, saying, “No books, papers, tracts or documents of a political, sectarian or denominational character shall be used” in Idaho public schools.

2. Doesn't the SC consist of several people? Does that mean, he's hearing several voices in his head?

4. the Idaho legislature

is completely owned and operated by the lds church and they want all the kids who go to public school to be able to keep up (in ironic relativity only) with all the home schooled kids who have only learned from the "bible" (here it is informative to recognize that the lds have their own bible which has more meaning than the one the rest of the so called xtians use).

So this also serves to keep outsiders out. If you aren't a member of that club then you should move to someplace else.
