Four years later, the attempt to declare the Bible as an official book reappears in the American state of Tennessee. Jerry Sexton, a Republican lawmaker, has resumed his fight for the Bible. On Wednesday, Jerry Sexton sought a bill to approve the bill. In 2016, a similar bill was vetoed by then-Republican Governor Bill Haslam. The governor is Bill Lee, a Republican. But he has not commented on making the Bible the official state of the state.
Jerry Sexton said a few years ago that the new bill would recognize the role the Bible played in the history of the state. He said that the Bible has played an important role in the history of the state and the state of Tennessee, so it cannot be denied history. Jerry Sexton noted that making the Bible an official book is not a violation of the Constitution. He added that ignoring the Bible as a religious book is against the First Amendment.
