Yes, it was you I asked. Thank you for answering it now. At least your position is consistent: if a school board in a majority-Islamic area voted to start teaching Islam in the public schools (the religious part, not the jihad part), you'd just accept it as the price of freedom of religion.

Try again. The question was about if I objected to teacher led prayer and Koran reading in schools, not about teaching Islam in public schools. That's misrepresenting what I said, IOW, you lied about what I said.

No, what I did was to equate "having teachers lead in Koran reading and prayer during school hours" with "teaching Islam (the religious part)." I guess you see a significant difference between those two things, but I think it's a little much to accuse me of lying because of it, especially when I was complimenting you on your consistency. So, fine:

At least your position is consistent: if a school board in a majority-Islamic area voted to have teachers lead Koran readings and Muslim prayers in the public schools during school hours, you'd accept it as the price of freedom of religion.
