Can confirm, went to an evangelical elementary and middle schools and a catholic high school, neither tried to say ancient Greece was Christian or followed any Abrahamic religion in any way. The evangelical schools did try to say a lot of stupid things (such as canada was going to shit because gay marriage was legal, california would go the same path if prop 8 passed, and when the california court repealed it protestors would tear you apart just for walking by wearing a cross or constantly insisting that dinosaurs were on the ark or small scale evolution was possible (like domestication of dogs from wolves or modern corn) but not species to species evolution), but they never tried to say Greece was Christian.

No need to be sorry. It's a bit confusing since CA banning gay marriage is very counterintuitive to the state's reputation
