California school sued over Islamic drills

A group of parents in California is suing a local public school district where at least one middle school, after September 11, encouraged students to wear Muslim robes, adopt Islamic names and stage make-believe pilgrimages to Mecca to learn about the faith.

Now, if muslims were to be prevented from going to Mecca. Say, what if ... oh I don't know ... the entire area becomes a radiation infested wasteland ...

The Imams might count on Allah protecting the faithful from the Infidel's evil dusts...Islam...future religion of Piece...as in Pieces falling off you as you come back from your pilgrimage GLOWING and autolysing to beat the band...LOL! I'd sleep like a baby...No more blinders in seattle...this is one Kafir that knows he's not welcome to share the earth with Jihadji's...The feeling is OH so mutual, HEY Abdullard!...stick to your goat Fatima...Don't mess with USA...its worth your life...These people are just ineffective wannabe NAZI's!

Where's the ACLU? You'd think they would be all over this case, given their interest in maintaining a "wall of separation" between church and state.

I'm just guessing, but I think this is the ACLU's Get Out of Jail Free Card:

The course on Islam is one of 11 units of a social studies class called World History and Geography: Medieval and Early Modern Times

It's "history," not "religion."

Some liberal judge will let the school skate on the tortured definition, and thank them for providing it.

[Post Toasties]

Requiring public school students to act out explicitly religious Islamic rituals in any way or to become more familiar with Islam than Christianity for course credit is not an acceptable way to utilize time which is supposed to be spent in objective learning.

Oooh, I think this could be fun! Let's see now...what do I know about islam?

There is no hog but allah, and mohammud is her pimp.

And the five pillers (spelling intentional)

Faith or belief in the diversity of dogs and the idiocy of the pimp in da' 'hood, ol' 'hammud;
Establishment of the daily perversion;
Concern for ways to beat and oppress women;
Self-purification through consumming lots of ex-lax; and
The pilgrimage to the Pig Stand for those who are able.

What are the five pillars of Islam? Easy.
1.) Nail bombs
2.) Hijacking
3.) Beheading people (cutting off their hands, etc.)
4.) Murdering Christian and Jewish women and children
5.) Treating women like cattle

Any other questions?

If you get sued, can I play, too? Huh? Can I? Huh? Huh? I hate being left out of things, you know.

(We don't want to tell certain people that libel is written and slander is spoken, now do we? Teaching all these high falutin' legal terms is getting so tiresome.)
