Georgia Parents Outraged After School Teaches 6th Graders Tenets of Islam (Video)

Georgia parents are outraged after their middle school teaches children about the tenets of Islam.

The school is teaching Islam to 6th graders.

Many Walton County parents are outraged that their middle school students are learning the tenets of Islam as part of their Social Studies class.

Parent Ryan Breece objected to the assignment his 6th Grade daughter brought home from Youth Middle School.

“My daughter learning the Islamic faith kinda contradicts my faith in general. I would prefer to receive that info in advance so I can decide if that goes against my faith,” parent Ryan Breece said.

Breece said he was so uncomfortable with the assignment, he went to talk to the Youth Middle School principal and ultimately the administration allowed his daughter to opt out of the work.

“We are seeing one page, five statements of Christian faith and 5 or 10 pages of Islamic faith, so there is no accountability to make sure it is equal,” said Breece.

The father of three is so disturbed about what he said are state guidelines that he started a Facebook page which many parents have joined to fight.

“I was very concern and hurt and it vexed my spirit to know that these children are being taught this and we were not even warned,” parents Bobby Jones said.

DEMAND

I am sure the school will address this by teaching the principles of Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism, and all the other major religions of the world.

Doesn’t matter. The government schools know what’s best for your kids without all that Christian Jewish stuff being taught instead.

What’s with the ‘red states’? Isn’t this also happening in Tennessee and South Carolina?

I think making them teach Christian tenets would be far worse punishment
I believe having to say the name Jesus would cause extreme and deserved discomfort to these people

I don’t see a problem, so long as the truth about Islam is taught.

However, I suspect that the children are being fed a sanitized narrative approved by the terrorists at CAIR.

Can you imagine the hysteria on the left if the tenets of Christianity were being taught. Since we are not organized, lack the will, and probably the physiological ability to resist, we must accept anything the left hands out. Of course, there will be local expressions of "outrage" but no real action. In a few years many of your children will be happy little Muslims. As the Gaul said to the Roman; "Woe to the conquered."

These teachers, administrators and school district should be fired. They are teaching a religion that oppresses woman, gays and all people not of the Moslem faith. This is a religion that condones slavery in the world today and was responsible for rounding up Africans and selling them into slavery. This religion should only be studied in higher grade levels in comparison to other teachings so that students can see the evil of Islam’s doctrine. How it’s very essence slanders the ultimate reality of life itself.

Whatever happened to separation of religion and the State?
These schools should be sued just like the atheists sue over prayers.

Nothing will happen as I don’t see a lawsuit filed by the ACLU for separation of Church and State.

Perhaps the area pastors and priests should hold a middle school kid seminar to teach these kids the truth

It’s a government school. It has just taken a few generations for the mask to fall off and reveal the true nature of government education.
