A ninth grade World Geography teacher who assigned students near Staunton, Virginia to hand copy the Arabic characters representing the shahada–the Islamic statement of faith–also circulated a Koran to her students while refusing to do the same with the Bible, according to reports from a parent meeting.
Conservative talk show host Rob Schilling filed this report last Tuesday:
Parents of students at Greenville, Virginia’s Riverheads High School were shocked by a recent assignment given in World Geography class.

I have seen a Bible. I have never seen a Koran. I suspect the same had been true for the kids in her classroom.
Some people will do anything for satan.
Can’t find a picture of the “teacher” anywhere.
Had she asked students to write John 3:16, the ACLU would have been there the next morning with an injunction.
You have any doubt about that?
Why do you want a picture of the teacher?
Why didn’t she ask the children to write the Shema in Hebrew?
Sounds like you missed out in your “geography” class.
Why not?
In the original Greek? No problem.
Why?
I think we need more information; is the Koran part of the study lesson? I could understand if part of the geography lesson they were studying the cultures and religions of the middle east. As long as the teacher includes the bible when they get to areas that are mostly Christian.
Noe whatsoever. She'd also get fired. This double standard disgusts me.
A reporter yesterday actually asked an ACLU attorney about the Shema in Hebrew and he said he’d have no problem with a teacher doing that. Riiiiight. They’d be in court the next morning suing over it.
How about a home address and phone number?
“I have seen a Bible. I have never seen a Koran. I suspect the same had been true for the kids in her classroom.”
Not everyone is as deprived or deficient as your poor self.
Still, you make a small point, unlike your other cry-for-attention look-at-me-I’m-an-atheist-rebel posts.
Do you think they ever saw a Diamond Sutra?
I would like to thank all those who have a “COEXIST” sticker on the back of their car.
Congratulations. You have self identified as a loathsome, suicidal, incompetent liberal airhead and saved me any time I may have wasted talking to you for whatever reason.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
After I read this, I searched. There is a FB page but I could not see it. Guess it has been edited.

It says right on the assignment pictured in the article that the Arabic text is the "Islamic statement of faith".
The same writing is on the flag of Saudi Arabia.
