Parents of a boy enrolled in Manhattan Beach Middle School are pulling their son out of class because the school is teaching children the tents of Islam, Los Angeles news station KTLA reports.
The father said, The audacity of this school, to think that they can sit these children down and teach em whatever religion they please; its preposterous. This is illegal, basically. You cant teach religion in schools any more, but apparently, in this particular school, at least, thats not the case.
Parents said they discovered that what their children were learning about Islam was more about the tenets of the faith than the history of the religion, according to KTLA. One question asked the students to write down teachings from the Koran.
The father continued, What I saw written in these bubbles was, The one true God, Allah in one of the bubbles. In one of the other bubbles was All people must submit to Allah, in another bubble. The I turned the page over and I see the five pillars of Islam.

Father: Can you imagine the outcry all over this country if children were bringing home paperwork that asked them to write down John 3:16, or asked them to write down the 10 Commandments?
Mother: And if it ended with the Declaration of the Faith, Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior? Thats what the equivalent, I mean, part of us, for our son? Wed be happy about that."

Days after the Canadian soldier was shot dead at the military shrine, a hatchet-wielding man, a member of the hallowed "religion of peace," savagely attacked and wounded NYC police officers. Later, kind and compassionate progressive City Officials said they "didnt believe" the axe-killer had any connection to terrorism......
Of course not...only an intolerant racist would think this kindly man with an axe is (horrors) an actual "terrorist." In fact, the peace-loving axe-wielder meant no harm....he was here at the express invitation of the progressive Obama administration. Read on.
DHS SIGNS OFF ON Obama admin's law to let
into the US, immigrants with 'limited' terror contact
The Daily Caller | 2/5/14 / FR Posted by Nachum
The Obama administration has issued new exemptions to a law that bars certain asylum-seekers and refugees who provided limited material support to terrorists who are believed to pose no threat from the U.S.
The Department of Homeland Security and the State Department published the new exemptions Wednesday in the Federal Register to narrow a ban in the Immigration and Nationality Act excluding refugees and asylum seekers who had provided limited material support, no matter how minor, to terrorists.
These exemptions cover five kinds of limited material support that have adversely and unfairly affected refugees and asylum seekers with no tangible connection to terrorism: material support that was insignificant in amount or provided incidentally in the course of everyday social, commercial, family or humanitarian interactions, or under significant pressure, a DHS official explained to The Daily Caller.
Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson and Secretary of State John Kerry signed the exemptions. DHS contends that the law change is commonsense and that immigration procedures will remain the same in other respects. (Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
==================================================
THIS NEEDS TO GO VIRAL: Americans demand to know what exactly did 2014 Democrat candidates do about Obama letting terrorists into the US.
<><>Colorado's Sen Mark Udall,
<><>Iowa's Cong Braley,
<><> Louisiana's Sen Mary Landrieu,
<><>Michigan's Gary Peters,
<><>Georgia's Michelle Nunn,
<><> North Carolina's Sen Kay Hagan,
<><> New Hampshire's Sen Jean Shaheen
<><> Minnesota's Sen Al Franken.
=====================================================================
US TAX DOLLARS FINANCE TERRORISM ---Obama's not merely "not fighting terrorists"---he's financing them and inviting them into our communities, forcing taxpayers to subsidize their evil deeds. Obama used the federal piggy bank to finance jihad.:
<><> $2 billion funding to the Muslim Brotherhood,
<><> $50 million to his Muslim brother's tax-exempt foundation.
<><> while the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama and Hillary showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.
“tents” of islam?
Unfortunately, most of western Europe is doing the same or worse.
Why isn’t it ALL THE PARENTS????
Maybe things will change when this Election Devastastion is realized. These illegals need to “go away”.
I think it all ties back to the election of Baraq Hussein Obama and his cronies...Valerie Jarret, and his Muslim Brotherhood WH appointees. Huma Abedin being in bed with Hillary Clinton doesn’t help either....
tents of islam?
****
The word was Tenet:
a principle, belief, or doctrine generally held to be true; especially : one held in common by members of an organization, movement, or profession

Say wha? Camping?
Why isnt it ALL THE PARENTS????

You are right - all the parents should do this when Islam is taught in school.
Give kids a homework assignment to memorize the Lords Prayer and see what happens.
“because the school is teaching children the tents of Islam,”
I know what “tenets” means, but thanks anyway.
The Father God I know would not condone this
From the article:
“Parents said they discovered that what their children were learning about Islam was more about the tenets of the faith than the history of the religion...”
This would be like learning the 10 commandments in Christianity.
It would be one of the building blocks of the faith.
The Father God I know would not condone this
...and I'm mostly Irish (thanks be to God).
Really? Journalism, at least the oft quoted reputation is that these stalwarts have at least some competency of creation and execution in the written word.
Tents of Islam? Perhaps tenets?
I guess fact and proof checking is less important nowadays.
I don’t blame them. I would have too.
A somewhat apropos error that missed spellcheck is my guess.
"Concerned Parents" need to pay a late night visit to the Principal, the teacher and School Board officials to gain a "greater understanding" of the cirriculum.
