Tired of being made fun of as their citizens fell behind in adopting new techniques and new technology in the critical life skills; Kentucky does something about it.

"Teach a man to fish and he's got something to spend his unemployment checks on."

Now that you mention it ...


"...Kentucky's High School Athletic Association announced back in February that bass fishing, bowling and competitive cheer would be added as sports in the coming year. ... "

"Competitive cheer"? Do they hold it in a pub?

Now that's funny!
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Here on Long Island, bowling, golf and competitve cheering are (and have been for over 15 years) accredited high school sports. While I might agree that bass fishing (and hunting) are "hobbies or "pass-times" anything that gets the kids interested in going outdoors (or doing something physical) and not playing video games or texting is a good thing. (and this is from someone who voted NO on the latest (and in the past) school budget votes).
