A Michigan public school district posted a job listing looking for a superintendent with “a strong Christian background and philosophy” until a civil liberties group stepped in to put a stop to it on Tuesday, the Grand Rapids Press newspaper reported.
In a listing that had been up since mid-February, the McBain Rural Agricultural School in McBain, Michigan, said it was looking for someone with “a strong Christian background and philosophy” as one of its “selection criteria,” according to the newspaper.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan sent a letter on Tuesday to the district and two consultants with the Michigan Leadership Institute, which provides superintendent search services, the newspaper reported. The letter said the Constitution “wisely requires public schools to remain neutral in matters of religion,” according to the newspaper.
One of those consultants took responsibility for the listing later that day, apologizing and saying it reflected “poor judgment.” The newspaper said the reference to religion had been removed from the job description as of Tuesday.

They may have changed the ad, but who do you really think will end up getting the job?
AT least THeY won’t be HINDOOS. TheY worshIP cows! COWS!!11one!1!!!
Watch the school district fall all over itself claiming it didn’t write the ad, then find some dead guy that it claims did.
The next ad will read “Female 21 years or younger needed for typing and to be a gofer.”
Incidents like this one make me wonder how any Jewish person can support the GOP. They are constantly talking about Christian values and being a Christian nation. Sure, every now and again someone will clean it up by referring to Judeo-Christian law or whatever, but for the most part GOPers frequently dismiss all other religions including Judaism. And really the only time they truly support Judaism is when it comes to saber rattling over Israel. Otherwise, does anyone actually believe they recognize Jews as their religious equals?
