Topic: Students Being Indoctrinated In Islam At US School! | |

Where is the source of the story? Is there something to verify this with? it's called GOOGLE... it's your friend... Don't know as if I would go that far but then Bing, Google, Yahoo; all massive invasions of privacy. so is just being on the WWW! lol.. i don't care who tracks me, i'm legal... Are you? There is always something for one looking, but then: What good does it do me, after all, if an ever-watchful authority keeps an eye out to ensure that my pleasures will be tranquil and races ahead of me to ward off all danger, sparing me the need even to think about such things, if that authority, even as it removes the smallest thorns from my path, is also absolute master of my liberty and my life; if it monopolizes vitality and existence to such a degree that when it languishes, everything around it must also languish; when it sleeps, everything must also sleep; and when it dies, everything must also perish?
There are some nations in Europe whose inhabitants think of themselves in a sense as colonists, indifferent to the fate of the place they live in. The greatest changes occur in their country without their cooperation. They are not even aware of precisely what has taken place. They suspect it; they have heard of the event by chance. More than that, they are unconcerned with the fortunes of their village, the safety of their streets, the fate of their church and its vestry. They think that such things have nothing to do with them, that they belong to a powerful stranger called “the government.” They enjoy these goods as tenants, without a sense of ownership, and never give a thought to how they might be improved. They are so divorced from their own interests that even when their own security and that of their children is finally compromised, they do not seek to avert the danger themselves but cross their arms and wait for the nation as a whole to come to their aid. Yet as utterly as they sacrifice their own free will, they are no fonder of obedience than anyone else. They submit, it is true, to the whims of a clerk, but no sooner is force removed than they are glad to defy the law as a defeated enemy. Thus one finds them ever wavering between servitude and license. When a nation has reached this point, it must either change its laws and mores or perish, for the well of public virtue has run dry: in such a place one no longer finds citizens but only subjects. ― Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America i'm pretty sure they've stopped a few muslim related events by watching and looking, they are not looking at everyone's all the time... while i agree with what you're saying, a lot of it is just paranoia... Actually there is many statements they have stopped nothing, so massive amount of data they don't know which way to look next. Back to role of the average cop, protection is limited to after the fact, not very effective when extreme violence is involved. |

I was taught about Islam in school. Lol. Along with many other religions. We should be educated about the world. As I parent I don't see a problem with this. Also as a Christian I don't see a problem with this.

When people wait until they are in a crisis, before they study religion they can be manipulated a lot easier. |

When people don't study religion with both eyes open they believe all kinds of crazy things. Can you imagine someone believing a little fat man sneaking into a kids house in the middle of the night has anything to do with worshipping God? Or that we can take a pagan holiday, and call it Christian?
