It is interesting to notice that the origin of the famous Islamic symbol of the five pointed star and the crescent was not Islamic but Sassanian, and at first it had six points. The five pointed star and the crescent actually became a symbol of Islam only during the 19th century, sporting on the Ottoman flag from 1793. It entered the Turkish Flag in 1923 and then it had been adopted by other Muslim countries. Actually the Crescent and six pointed Star appear already on a roman Denarius minted by Augustus (27 BC-CE 14)

Well, and elephants predate the Republican Party.

I’t’s too early in the morning— which according to my work schedule, means “too late in the day”— for me to be wholly serious.

Well; it appears ‘someone’ knew; and now more have forgotten; and many, have never known or will.

We need to know how many schools around the country have implemented this and who’s funding (us), pushing it?

Please mail me re: Gov databases and others to search if any have knowledge.
