DescriptionDuring a speech in St. Peters in August 2012, Akin said “Where the Bible shows the civil government doing education?.. The king's school in Babylon, right? He builds this great big idol… A government school has you bow to the idol. There's an example of public involvement, the government running education. [Inaudible] Look at your Bible and see if you can find any good examples of civil government running education. Anybody? I'll give a hundred bucks to anybody that can find an example of that, ok?”
