...all I know is we keep hearing on this thread that they didn’t take it but there is no “why” presented...

Unlike WND, they actually provide some background and some reasoning.

In short, it was a history lesson and no one was being asked to “profess” anything.

I’m not sure why this parent think’s his daughter is better off being ignorant of other religions. Maybe he’s worried that her faith isn’t strong.

Better to be ignorant than misinformed. Islam is not a religion it is a government with a religious component. Teaching it is anything other than what it truly is should be a signal to any conservative but apparently it isn't. Wonder why? Could it be GW's assertion that Islam is a religion of peace in spite of the fact history reveal that for the lie that it is.
