culture is taught about the world. Religion isn't 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 Agreed, it should be an elective and I would only hope it would include all religions, not just inclusive of one. |

There is a difference between teaching about religion and teaching in religion. 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. I think what most people object is, that they don't want like a christian school, basically be taught like with nouns and so on, like a Catholic school.. For example, I had to read the Bible when I went to school, but not like something like a text book, but on a literature class and then I had to write an exam about it. It wasn't a catholic christian school, but a regular one and the Bible is part of the curriculum. |

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 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. |

How do you learn about the MiddleEast without learning about Islam? you'd have to go back to Nebuchednazar (or however the hell you spell it) and work your way up through Zoroasterism but eventually you'll have to get to sulamein and saladin and the split between the sunni and the shia and the Turkish Ottomans and then you get to the Nazi connection wih the PLO and the Bathists |

But...how can one possibly learn all there is to learn about a culture without talking about the religion of that culture? true...but it should be an elective as said before. all should be taught IMO I went to a private school in Junior High....it's a whole new world crap...now I have that song in my head |

maybe if they taught it as a law instead of religion???
I don't know. I've never had a problem with my son learning new things like that but not all parents think that way. |

Uh I don't think so. Once again a typical liberal misconstruing my words into what you think you have read or heard. Once AGAIN- if one religion is taught then ALL should be taught. How can that be mistaken for "kids turned into muslim"? |

the problem is...you can't say separation of church and state with the exception of (insert religion)
that would be a discrimination to other religions IMO |

I don't mind my son learning other things but not all parents agree and that is their right. all or nothing in elective classes is the best answer IMO |

History class doesnt teach ALL of history, government doesnt talk about EVERY political issue or figure. Electives are there so people can choose if they want to participate in the curriculum included. Electives are the best answer, but we cant expect any elective to include EVERYTHING about a topic. |

I know we've had this discussion (well not with you lol) in other threads....there are too many religions out there to teach. but I don't think it's fair to say teach one and nothing else though. I even suggested once teaching the major or well known religions and that got poo poo'd |

No but when you have a group of people that are so adamant about separation of Church and state, then it should be ALL religions, not just Christianity. That's a simple point some of us are trying to make. |
