they will separate christianity from the state but not atheism and islam.

How?

you are so right, a classroom cannot teach anything about Jesus yet it's ok for them to have a project on nothing but muslims? Uh something wrong with that.

Perhaps it is to teach them something. I dont think any of the kids have become muslims. I studied Islam (and other religions)in college and I didnt become a Muslim either.

It is all in The Flushing Remonstrance

Well good for you, but it has NO place in our schools just like God cannot be mentioned at school. If Christianity cannot be taught in public school then NO religion should be taught in school. It's hypocritical to think otherwise.

Its called social studies Did you have it when you were in school?

Look on the brightside,Islam is a conservative religion

I'm not talking about social studies, I'm talking about indoctrination. http://www.stoptheaclu.com/2005/11/18/9th-circuit-court-says-teaching-children-to-be-muslims-ok/

All I'm saying is if you allow students to study one religion, they should have to study all and NOT leave out Christianity. I love how some liberals don't argue the fact of separation of Church and state when it comes to islam. Yet when it comes to Christianity there is no tolerance.

if that's the case then off with your head your comment is laughable.

I agree with all or nothing. I have no problem with my son learning new things and about others. we usually do it together.

I need to study up in this

I havent seen any kids getting turned into muslims from attending public schools. Its not about separation of church and state. Kids need to know there are other cultures out there

Sharia Law is very conservative. Abortion isnt legal. No gay rights. No gun control. Torture is legal. God is taught in the classrooms I think a lot of conservatives should support this

The heading seems logical and a matter of common sense. We, as americans, dont even have a broad knowledge of world geography, how many truly understand global religions? something being misunderstood doesnt make it good or bad, it just implies that there may be misperceptions on both sides. I think this is true of every religion. I know I feel christianity is often misunderstood too.

No matter what you may believe, there is a huge difference between the muslim religion and Christian conservatives. How about a gay person leaving America and going to Iran, how long do you think his/her head would stay on his/her shoulder? Not very long, or won't be breathing very long.



The FACT IS if it is taught in school then ALL Religions should be taught!!!!!! No ifs, ands or buts!! No Christianity, no islam.

There is a difference between teaching about religion and teaching in religion.

culture is taught about the world. Religion isn't

Yes there is, so when a class is made to learn about a certain religion, other religions should be included.

All I am saying and I will say it until I die, if one is taught, then the others should be taught.

Not that hard to understand, pretty black and white.

Actually , I think there is an elective in some schools called World Religion,,,but it should remain,,elective.

you maybe right. My son's high school (same one I graduated from 20 yrs ago...I feel old lol) didn't have that class.

a class like that he would have enjoyed as long as all religions were taught as well. I wish they had something like that here but I think the school district doesn't want to take the chance
