"What's the first thing that comes to your mind when I say Islam?" said Casey Morris."Iraq," a fellow student replied.
'Blood' was the first thing that popped into my mind.
That's what Casey Morris hopes to eliminate through his research project, the stereotypes the public has about Muslims. Not only will he learn about the culture by wearing traditional Muslim clothing and praying five times a day, but "Also going without pork for 30 days, that's going to be rough but we'll make do," said Morris.
I wouldn't let my kid within spitting distance of this person. Well, maybe.
"Yeah, we're probably going to get some funny looks as we go down the hallway. I'm expecting comments maybe here and there. You know what, I'll be honest, I'll be disappointed if we dont get some," said Morris.
I'll bet.
Members of the Muslim community here in the Valley say many people don't understand the Muslim culture.
As I've said before, I've read the book, and know all I care to know.

Knowing that 9/11/2001 was in the name of islam was enough.
No further intellectual curiosity.

Does your child fail if you are against him/her taking part in this? I truly wouldn't want my child in this class. Are they planing to do ALL religions as well?

"What's the first thing that comes to your mind when I say Islam?" said Casey Morris.I wonder what the first thing would be that would come to their mind if one were to say "Christianity"? Naw, I don't need to wonder. I believe I know the answer.

How adorable... May I suggest this Morris kid get a kite, crawl to the roof of the highest building in that burg, and try to jam the kite into the window of an office building in order to kill all the workers.

You suppose they'll add beheading Christians and Jews to their lifestyle play acting? Maybe massacring a school full of elementary school kids?
This kid Morris sounds like the kind of kid the rest of us guys used to beat up after school. Fifty bucks says he's a sissy!

So, how often do muslims try and understand Christian culture? Would they go to church and eat pork and not blow up other people for a whole month?

"Alan and I will obviously come out of the deal with a great understanding of the culture with great respect and appreciation for the Islamic culture and hopefully we'll impart some of that upon other people too," said Morris.
Those of us who have lived in this culture abroad have a greater understanding than these "teachers" will ever have. They mistake "misunderstanding" Islam with "we just don't respect or appreciate it after living with it" and comparing it to Christianity, which is something the Muslims should try.

They won't know any more about what it is like to live as a Muslim from this charade than they would know what it's like to live as a squirrel by eating nuts and climbing trees.

Instead of this makebelieve stuff, I have a better idea.
This young man should do it for real- move to a village in Pakistan- and find out what it's really like to be a Muslim.

Obviously the child hasn't done his homework. According to the Koran, there is no 'playing' Muslim. If you act like one, you become one and if you then go back to your original religion (if you had one), you are now in apostasy and you can be exterminated (nice word for massacred) by a practicing Muslim. That is what multiculturalism does for you.
Are there any female students volunteering to wear the niqab, burkha, abaya, and khimar and willing to be treated as worthless?

Whats the first thingg that comes to mind about Islam? They should teach these kids what the word Islam means:
SUBMIT
And all who do not submit are infidels.
Submit means to submit to the will of Allah as defined by a social order that disrespects the basic human freedoms of the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights.That social order is enforced by Sharia, a barbaric theocratic code of punishment.
Those who do not submit are treated with prejudice and defined as being sub human Dhimmis.
This IS the truth. And obviously it is NOT being taught to these school children.

Hey, Spotswood Hi, I have a wonderful idea, why not make some muzzie live as a Christian, take off your veils, go to Sunday School, Wednesday night Prayer meetings, eat ham, help the poor at a soup kitchen - and oh yeah, bathe, shave your legs and use deodorant!
