School gets busted for Burqas

[scootro]

trick or treat!!!

[line-em-up]

Christianity was where Islam was at a LONG time ago. Think the Crusades and then the Spanish Inquisition, The Old Testament ect. Islam is where Christianity was at a long time ago. Does that make them right? Hell no, but don't think that Christianity and any other religion for that matter doesn't have a spotty past.

I understand what your saying. I'm not discounting all of the shitty things that have happened in the past. I am focused on today. I am not a holly roller, but I believe in God. If the muslims and their sharia law come to town, I won't be given a choice to worship who I want.

so can we file for having Cinco de Mayo as a national holiday.

All religion should be illegal.

I am not a very religious person but I go to church every Sunday. If I want my kid learning ANY religion I will be the one who decides that. If the school wants to teach middle east culture they can do so. But leave the the Prophet and Allah and Islam out.

What I find most amusing is how the people in this thread defending the actions of the school program don't actually have an opinion OTHER than that they are anti- something. You don't mind islamic proselytizing because its anti-conservative and anti-christianity.

Have an opinion of your own instead of just being a sheep.

Ok. Even if we forget the bolded part, there is still a big difference between the Christianity (a religion that you can choose to believe or not) and Islam (a religion/law that requires you to believe and follow under penalty of death). Do you not see the difference?

From the "collective" standpoint it should be all or nothing IMO. All religion discussed and taught in school or none. I would lean toward none as I think it should be the parents discression to introduce what religions they would like their child to learn about.

Agreed.

You need to take a comparative religion course and pull your head out of transmissions for a bit. Then you may learn what you're talking about.

Note that this is not from the High School lesson, but from a 6th grade history lesson. Just more BS from the creators of CSCOPE


Compare characteristics of institutions in various contemporary societies. (TEKS 6.16B)

Student will differentiate between the active and passive voice and know how to use them both. (TECKS 6.19B)

Mayfield hates africans!

I'm not missing the point, I just think it's funny that christians are getting a dose of their own medicine and they don't like it.

Pray tell what "dose of medicine" Christians have been giving in our schools? I am sure that the Texas Board of Education doesn't mandate a program that forces schools to teach students to get baptized and be told that Jehovah is God, but maybe you can find that mandated state program for me....

From a procreation standpoint, they're right. Not to mention, it's hard to wash off the shitdick without access to running water..

Because the world has a problem with procreation rates, and africans, of all people, need to procreate more. They can't even feed what they've got, let alone more people.

You guys are both missing the point, this is a program in Texas public schools , that pushes ONLY Islam, no other religion is pushed by it:

They miss the point on a regular basis. Most likely because they can't argue the original point.

You only think I missed it, I just chose not to argue it and instead took the angle of "good for the goose, good for the gander."
