Good people.

Huck is harking back to a time that did not exist, except in private religious schools, which are still available today to anyone who wants them. The former public school prayer in the morning or grace before lunch was hardly the evangelical scenario he paints, though it did leave the door open for bigots to do their thing to nonconformers, which btw is why it got banned.

Sorry to have to say this, but the charming and likable Preacher Huck is an ass.
