They have been teaching this class to many students for a long time and only two mothers have complained.
And it is not just in this NJ district. All over the USA religious history is being taught in public schools and that includes Islam
Excuse me, but I am sure there has been a multitude of complaints against Islam being taught in Common Core.

Globally, Common Core originated from the One World Education concept, a global goal orchestrated by the Connect All Schools program. Its origin is funded by the Qatar Foundation International (QFI). The director of QFIs Research Center for Islamic Legislation and Ethics is Tariq Ramadan, grandson of Muslim Brotherhood founder, Hassan al-Banna.
You missed the whole point of the article. Religion IS NOT being taught....Islam is being forced upon the kids often without the knowledge or approval of the parents.
