Hmmm . . .maybe history, philosophy, psychology and sociology should
not be taught in the public schools.  How would a teacher present a
non-biased class on any of these subjects?  A text book, the teacher,
and the school in general is going to be biased depending on the
political/social flavor of the individual or individuals involved.

Sometimes MT ya gotta have a little faith.  Oops, that sounded like a
skosh of religion creeping in . . .
