I don't think the Constitution prohibits the use of this textbook, but I have real doubts about the wisdom of this approach.

More Quotes from Barry Lynn:
Some religious organizations are openly using the hurricane relief efforts to win new converts. If these groups can't separate their evangelism from their relief work, they should not be eligible for public funding. People displaced by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita should not be subjected to unwanted, high-pressure religious coercion as the price of getting help from their own government.Barry Lynn
