Brandee Porterfield doesn’t think her daughter should be assigned to write “Allah is the only god; Mohammad is his prophet” as a school assignment.

“To me, a Christian child should not be made to write that,” Porterfield, mother of a seventh grader at Spring Hill Middle School, told the Columbia Daily News.

She also takes offense to what she said is a three week focus on Islam in her daughter’s history course, especially since the class skipped past a chapter on Christianity – the predominant religion in Tennessee.

“I have a big problem with that,” Porterfield said. “From a historical point of view, that’s a lot of history these kids are missing. Also, for them to spend three weeks on Islam after having skipped Christianity, it seems to me they are making a choice about which religion to discuss.” ...

The public schools have, since Kennedy and Bush the first, got together and came up with no child left behind, nothing more than indoctrination centers/ kiddie kennels.

No parent that professes to be a Born Again Christian has any right to put his or her child in an environment that teaches that God is a liar, that male on male anal sodomy is good, that Christianity is bigoted and that islam is the religion of peace.

Parents who profess to be Born Again Christians need to read:

Mt 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Mr 9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

Lu 17:2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

You might make a case that this represents an establishment of religion.

Islam is being treated as a serious religion, worthy of 3 weeks of study. Christianity (and Buddhism and Hinduism and others) are skipped entirely or given short shrift.

Why should just one religion receive so much attention? If you're going to study any religions in school, you should study all of them as a survey of comparative religion. There have been curricula for decades on how to conduct relatively fair comparative religion classes so it isn't as if this is not an established academic discipline. There are plenty of materials to teach the fundamentals of various religions. Yet, they choose to take just one, Islam, seriously enough to grant it 3 weeks of study.

Seems to me that some school board members, and teachers need to be introduced to an old fashioned "blanket party".

On the telephone with my 81 year-old mother just now I told this story
to her. She said: "I agree". Pretty surprising, eh? /sarc

It is the religion of the president, with C0mmon Core, the fed controls what is taught in the class room. But not what is taught at home.

Nope, once the Homer School number hits around 20%, the votes will be there to literally defund the public indoctrination system.

Add into that 20% the singles with no children that own or are buying homes, add in the couples who have chosen not to have kids, their tax bill is upwards of 60% for the schools.
