    It’s not really a mandate so there’s no revolt. As per The Friendly Atheist blog and podcast, this superintendent dumbfuck has no authority to enforce what he said. School officials may be saying fuck that, but it’s not a revolt when he made a completely empty statement.

    The first to push back happened last month. The superintendent’s office, when asked by press, replied: “Oh yes they will.” With no language about how they would make that happen.

    Fuck this christofascist, but this story / headline is bullshit. (I didn’t read the story because I already know that the headline doesn’t match reality thanks to TFA.)

      It is a revolt for districts have to reject guidance from a superintendent en masse. That’s not a normal way for an education system to be run. So it’s not bullshit; you just are a bit too strict with your semantics, but that’s your issue.
