NCBCPS Curriculum Questioned by Christian Groups
Chancey cites Elizabeth Ridenour of NCBCPS as a Council on National Policy member and says the curriculum endorses the Bible as the word of God and aims to persuade teachers and students to adopt conservative Protestant views. He argues the text contains shoddy research and factual errors on the Jewish calendar and Herod’s reign. Ridenour dismisses TFN as fringe left and defers to NCBCPS Attorney Mike Johnson, who says passages were taken out of context.
