PARENTS PULL SON FROM CLASS BECAUSE SCHOOL IS TEACHING ISLAM
Breitbart ^ | Oct 31, 2014 | WILLIAM BIGELOW

Posted on 11/01/2014 6:03:15 AM PDT by Whenifhow

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; it’s preposterous. This is illegal, basically. You can’t teach religion in schools any more, but apparently, in this particular school, at least, that’s 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? That’s what the equivalent, I mean, part of us, for our son? We’d be happy about that."

This is a good idea. Just keep in mind that this administration has already threatened teachers (through districts) who are speaking out against common core.

It will take a movement (many people) to defeat their agenda.

Organize, organize, organize.

The parents who took their school back were in Eagle Point, OR - I sure hope they continued their fight for a proper education for their children.

I applaud the parents for pulling their son out of school. However, the solution is to get the government out of schools.

He is doing the only thing he can, if everyone did maybe, just maybe things could change.

It is important to teach kids the rest of the story.

The rest of the story is classified as hate speech.

Although a provocative issue, not sure why this is on the Agenda 21 ping list. Is teaching Islam part of the UN’s Agenda 21?

From this thread
Why Did Hundreds of Common Core Implementers Meet in Dubai?
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3222449/posts

http://creepingsharia.wordpress.com/2014/11/02/why-did-hundreds-common-core-implementers-meet-in-dubai/

Redstate did some digging and found out the true origin of Common Core:
“Back in 2002 the US Department of Education, with help from Bill Gates (Microsoft Corp), Steve Jobs (Apple), AOL Time Warner, Dell Computer, Cable in the Classrooms, Cisco Systems and the National Education set up an organization called: Partnership for 21st Century Skills or P21.org for short. I originally found p21.org from a link on the TeachUNICEF website… Yep, UNICEF is still part of the United Nations. The link was titled: Have you seen the Partnership for 21st Century Skills’ new report on Global Education? Among other things I found on the site were articles titled “A Framework For State Action on Global Education and P21 has embarked on a year long project to redefine and reimagine 21st century citizenship.
So we have what appears to be a Non Government Organization, set up by some huge corporations and the US Department of Education to promote something that sounds a whole lot like Common Core on a Global Scale.
It gets better….”
Read rest of this very informative article here.

Common Core was NOT created by “the Governors” as the Liberals repeatedly lie. It was not a “state-led” initiative. It began with the United Nations, (who now control all of America’s national monuments, facts here.)

Give kids a homework assignment to memorize the Lords Prayer and see what happens.

And the following week have them recite the 23rd Psalm!

[1] The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
[2] He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters..
[3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake..
[4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me..
[5] Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over..
[6] Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

No, there’s Sweeden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy.

There’s been some push-back in France and Italy, but not enough to overcome the birth-rate handwriting on the wall.

The Left Wing embraces Islam, a religion that would kill most liberals in Arab countries. Fascinating, simply fascinating

Liberals hate America that much...They are the real enemy!
