«Education Alliance» with Churches launched - what is this nonsense? The church has no place in the state. And why on earth should their outdated and partly simply absurd (I'm thinking of their stance on abortion, birth control, homosexuality, etc.) now also be state-sanctioned? Are we in America, or what?
And the press? They are at most outraged that other religions were excluded. What is this nonsense - we should finally leave this behind. If someone thinks that values education is necessary, then introduce ethics classes, but please ones that are free of religious nonsense!
