In Oklahoma over the past few years, there have been bills put forward:
- - Designating the Bible as the Official State Book.
- - Establishing the nation's first taxpayer-funded religious charter school.
- - Displaying the Ten Commandments at the state capitol.
- - Mandating the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom.
- - Using Bible verses to justify spanking children with disabilities in school.
- - Religious school tax credits.
- - Banning the teaching of evolution in public schools.
- - The governor claiming the state of Oklahoma for Christ in his inaugural speech.
