It's like "let's all play with the Ouija board to learn about the history of parlor games."
I’m sure the ACLU is all over this even as we speak/sarc
If these were any of my kids, I would tell them to write “Jesus Christ is my lord and savior”.
This is sick and demented. Our education system needs to be purged. Gross negligence.
“They said it was all about the art—not about the theology. “
Uh Huh... Sure. Calligraphy is ONLY used in that statement? There’s nothing in Chinese, Korean, or Japanese script? Students couldn’t practice Old English calligraphy? The teacher is a sneak, a bum, and anti-Christian hater and knew EXACTLY what was going on .
any picture of this teacher ? I’m not clicking on Fox news
OK, then write something nice about Jesus. Their heads would explode.
Is someone thinking I’m buying the school’s explanation for one second.
What Islam calls “Allah” is a false god, not the God, not Jesus Christ who is “The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6)
Why is it always Islam or Muslim lessons that seem to be creeping into school systems across the country? Just goes to show you this is planned and not coincidental.
This should be a worry to everyone, not just those with kidsin public school systems.
I say parents should file suit every chance they can to put a stop to this crap, and insist that anyone responsible be fired immediately.
Very good, students.
Now, for our next calligraphy lesson, we’ll do the same thing, in ARABIC. Much prettier, isn’t it?
Where’s the ACPU?
This is bullsh1t, the school is totally lying. They are not the first to pull this sh1t.
“A Virginia school district is defending a classroom assignment that required students to practice calligraphy by writing the Muslim statement of faith, “There is no god but Allah. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.” “
Did they do this before having their generic winter festival that celebrates nothing in particular?
is there a practicing Muslim in the room.... I am very curies about the religion of the teacher who came up with this assignment.....I got an idea lets use calligraphy to write out the opening lines to Mien Kampf if we do it in the Aryan language of German the Jews in the class room wont be harmed because they will have no idea what they are writing.
What? Writing that Allah is the only God does not renounce their faith? Are they nuts? They could have written from the Declaration of Independence or anything else. Why about the murdering prophet?
If I had a child there, he would have written that Mohammed consummated a marriage with a 9-year old; if he lived here today, he would be in prison.
The lesson here for stupid “multiculturalists” who use that as an excuse to know nothing, is that muslim culture IS the whole political and religious package that is Islam.
Don’t forget about the six dozen glazed virgins.
