Many, many public schools will not allow any religious songs, especially at Christmas. I know because of doing the Moral Absolutes ping list.

Muslims attacked us on 9-11, and ever since then we are expected to praise Islam and tiptoe around Muslims’ sensibilities, of course with libs leading the way.

See my tagline. 9/11 is when liberals realized they had a friend in Islam.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Looks like it's going to be another one of those nights for the arth list......

Is anyone interested in a Home Front Jihad ping list?

I’ve been thinking I should start one.

This is exactly WHY I challenge anyone of these attention groveling pop stars who think it is so scandalous to dress as the pope or a nun while acting raunchy to give the same treatment to Islam. Just once. I dare ‘em...Come on Nicki Minaj—let’s see it.

I recommend Colorado christian university. Unabashedly Christian. Unapologetically conservative and home of the Western conservative union. A fabulous place where my middle son is majoring in theology and music. His stand for Christ would be welcomed there, and he would receive a fantastic education. There are some worthwhile colleges out there, if you keep looking

This particular song is, if you will, a chant, a la a Kyrie Eleison, Ave Maria, or a Gloria.

This is but one version, but including the 99 names of allah at the end, the zikr, is like chanting a rosary. I don’t know how else to explain it to you.

The choice of this song, if naive, is insidious.

Does no one remember the current occupant at the WH having as a religious advisor someone who spoke of the US as being the perfect spot on Earth for the resurgence/refreshing of Islam?

How many points of data do folks need? At this point, sure, 0bama could be an atheist....but those around him aren’t. Besides, Caliph is absolute. THAT 0bama most definitely is.

Public school choirs all over America are still singing religious songs. My daughter’s last concert included at least 5 religious songs. They’re chosen for their style and beauty, not for their message. This isn’t a violation of any court ruling.

The lesson taught here is that religious messages are unimportant. Wow! Great lesson! ( eyeroll!)

The lesson taught here is that religious messages are irrelevant and unimportant as long as it has pretty music and good beat. Wow! Great lesson! ( eyeroll!)
