High School: Islamic vocabulary lesson part of Common Core standards
FOXNEWS ^ | Dec. 19, 2014 | Todd Starnes

Parents in Farmville, North Carolina want to know why their children were given a Common Core vocabulary assignment in an English class that promoted the Prophet Muhammad and the Islamic faith.

“It really caught me off guard,” a Farmville Central High School student who was in the class told me. “If we are not allowed to talk about any other religions in school – how is this appropriate?”

The Islamic vocabulary worksheet was assigned to seniors.

“I was reading it and it caught me off guard,” the student told me. “I just looked at it and knew something was not right – so I emailed the pages to my mom.”

There is no doubt in my mind Islam will take over the world. And for some reason our politicians are complicit. I don’t get it.

I know liberals who will go postal if God is mentioned to one of their children in school. But will say teaching about Mohammed is simply teaching history.

We have to purge islam out of this country. There is nothing good about it. Nothing at all.

"There is no doubt in my mind Islam will take over the world. And for some reason our politicians are complicit. I don’t get it."

In the story of Moses, and elsewhere in the Bible, the Bible speaks of God rendering people incapable of reform, incapable of hearing and responding to the truth. God allows this after years - decades - of apostasy, of willful violation of his commandments, and it is always a prelude to a great chastisement. I am not particularly religious, but I think that is what is happening now in Europe and America. Islam is one of the forces that God will use to carry out the chastisement.

Islam is a cult of mohammad, trying to pass itself off as a religion, not a language.

The responses to Hammy's pedophilia were at first erratic. Some people responded unfavorably, while others were tired of goathumping and were all for it!

Church has always bored me to tears, however I’m drawn closer to God because of this apparent delusion. Good post.

“The rot reaches deep into the fibers of our society.”

That is the rot that enables Obama to rise. Only God can save us, and he has to do it through a leader who can stand and marshal the people. In the political world,that is called populism, and, so far, that leader is not evident. All our leaders tiptoe where ever they go; they are like play dough—think Rand Paul.

And it looks like they skipped the important Islamic vocab words, such as taqiyya and jihad.

If I had children, I would be using this to teach them that the State is the enemy, that the State lies. It would mean having to discuss with them what was taught each day. It means teaching children that when in school, the teacher is not to be trusted, and they should just tell the teachers what they want to hear. Yes, teaching children to lie.
“Johnny, do your parents have any guns in the house?”
“No way, my daddy thinks guns are bad and scary!”
Of course Johnny was well taught at home about gun safety.
This is of course just as example.
Even better, homeschool. Put aside any ideas of big vacation, expensive car, and all that. Economically cut back (and don’t feed the beast, it’s a way of going Galt).

They're Marxists. There is no right or wrong behavior in Marxism only right or wrong people. Islam is correlated to the masses (proletariat); Christianity with the bourgeoisie. That makes Islam good and Christianity evil.

Allah is not a god.

It is an object, like a flag, for inferior intellects to rally under and subsume themselves to.

Basically, Allah is for idiots.

Reminds me of the father-son chat I had with my son as he was going off to college:

"You know all the professors are going to be liberals, you might want to be careful about some things and not reveal too much."

"Dad, I've been doing that for three years."

I’d sure be raising a stink and demanding that this school district provide me with proof that they are going to “instruct” from other religions as well - before I would allow my child to do the assignment. Get other parents involved and hold their da** feet to the fire.
