A public high school has been accused of radical Islamic indoctrination by forcing children to profess the Muslim statement of faith, ordering them to memorize the Five Pillars of Islam and teaching that the faith of a Muslim is stronger than the average Christian, according to a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday.
Thomas More Law Center filed the lawsuit on behalf of John and Melissa Wood. They accuse La Plata High School in Maryland of subjecting their teenage daughter to Islamic indoctrination and propaganda. And when Mr. Wood complained â the school banned him from campus.
Defendants forced Woodâs daughter to disparage her Christian faith by reciting the Shahada, and acknowledging Mohammed as her spiritual leader,â Thomas More president Richard Thompson said.
The Shahada is the Islamic Creed, âThere is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.â
The Thomas More Law Center said that for non-Muslims, reciting the statement is sufficient to convert one to Islam.
âThe course also taught false statements such as Allah is the same God worshipped by Christians and Islam is a âreligion of peace,ââ Thompson said.
Good grief. It sounds as if somebody turned La Plata High School into a taxpayer-funded Madrassa.
A spokesperson for Charles County Public Schools told me they have not seen the lawsuit and declined to comment.
Also named as defendants were the Charles County Board of Education, principal Evelyn Arnold and vice-principal Shannon Morris.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court, alleges that students spent only one day studying Christianity and two weeks studying Islam.
âDuring its brief instruction on Christianity, Defendants failed to cover any portion of the Bible or other non-Islamic religious texts, such as the Ten Commandments,â the lawsuit states. âInstead, the class included disparaging remarks about Christianity and the Pope.â

By the way folks. Anyone know what a FReep-a-Thon is?
Now that the students have been forced to recite the Shahada they are muslims. And good muslims will shame and abuse female teachers that are not covered up to protect their modesty. In fact, they will threaten them with rape for dressing like prostitutes. Are they not asking to be raped by their provocative behavior? And the Jewish teachers can be called sons of pigs and apes constantly! There is so much fun to be had when you convert all the students to muslim!
I live in that county.
These parents are seeking their 15 seconds of fame, that is all... they have no basis for this lawsuit.
Imagine if they’d forced the kid to write John 3:16 out.
The ACLU would sue, MSM would be there, lib protesters outside the school.
Muslims can do no wrong, according to leftists. The enemy of Christ is the leftist’s friend.
Has 0bama inserted MoBros into DOE?
I’m surprised that more parents aren’t suing those teachers and school districts. I would if that had happened to my children.
That may be, but any opportunity to damage, harass, or be a nuisance to an enemy should be taken advantage of.
“Never let a crisis go to waste.” I think a prominent Dem once said.
Karma is an itch-bay.
Do you know something that we don’t?
I probably don’t have to tell you how this infuriates me.
It is a sign of the times, but I hope this guy winds up owning that school.
if they push a race war, my side was chosen for me at birth.
if they push a religious war, my side was chosen shortly after that.
in the end, i know my place.
and that scares them.
We are certainly seeing the work of the Anti-Christ right now.
Frankly I am somewhat surprised we haven’t seen him impersonate Jesus yet.
Did they pass Sharia law in your county?
If what was said in the article then yes they do have a basis. This kind of thing needs to be nipped in the budding stage.
Did it happen or is the story an exaggeration?
Are you a Muslim?
Heads should roll over this.
Figuratively.
What are you basing your opinion on? Do you know the Woods?
You do know that the Thomas More Law Center is not in the habit of filing frivolous lawsuits, don’t you?
This society is getting crazier and crazier!
