Teaching islam in my local school

I hope this doesn't violate a rule of some sort but it bears directly on several threads I've seen recently.

I have never been one to avoid speaking plainly with my kids about anything including politics, religion ect. Recently, my 11 year old son said he would be learning about islam in his geography class so I have been prepping him with some pertinant questions and info to "share" with his class. I also told him should his teachers in any way attempt to force him to violate his religious beliefs he should contact me emmediately.

Not ten minutes ago he called and said the class is engaged in an exercise where they are to pretend they are muslims and explore how they would react to being made to eat pork and/or other violations of the muslim faith. He sought my guidence in whether he should seek to excuse himself from this class or not.

My first reaction was to tell him ask to be excused, but on second thought I changed my mind and my aproach to this problem. I explained to him that he should return to class and say he has consulted with his imam who has now issued a fatwa against the NEA decreeing them to be infidel polluters of the faith and subject to jihadi action by all faithful followers of islam.

He's a sharp kid and he asked how far he can go with it. I told him that as his imam I am authorizing the blowing up of children, woman, non-combatants, old people, and TEACHERS in particular. This is a matter of self defense I said so killing them in nasty ways is morally justyfied by the teaching of the quran. I am awaiting his return from school or a call from his teacher.

I would love to hear from other FReepers what you all think about my little bit of activism. Again, my apologies if this is in the wrong forum or a breach of rules.

I hope she/he/whatever doesn't send around social services.

Islam is not a religion, it is a ideology based on world domination masquerading as a religion.
No other religion requires total submission or death.
Islam does.!

ISLAM IS TERRORISM BY IT"S VERY NATURE

Shout it from the roof tops !!!!!"

I have to run go for a while. Thanks for the thread. Keep us updated and I hope you don't get arrested, HU. I'll try to check in later.

In honor of the "Indian Artificat" sub thread, I'M IN!!! This has brightened up my whole day. Who said American public school kids were dumb??? Can't wait for the update.

[AppyPappy]

He needs to remind the teacher that a woman's teachings are worthless to a male.

[Aquinasfan]

He's certainly going to learn a life lesson at the very least.

I would have just told him to ask politely, "Is it true that Mohammed married a six year old when he was 53? I've heard that that's actually in the Koran."

There's no way out of that one.

Oh, dinasour, that's too funny. The Indians (oops, Native Americans) have a big casino in CNY and they're buying up land like crazy. Poker chip sounds about right to me!

[Aquinasfan]

While Christians in America and other countries fit your description, it has not been the most peaceful of religions throughout history.

In comparison to other religions and to modern secular states, Christendom most certainly has been peaceful. The most violent periods were defensive wars waged against... take a guess.

My youngest didn't talk until he was three. He's the brightest of the bunch as far as language skills, etc. goes, and he's a salesman for a good company. He taught himself to read when he was five and could read newspapers. Funny how kids can all come from the same family but have completely different skills and personalities. Kinda fun to watch them grow up, isn't it?

Ayyy Paison! Mia sonno de sicilia in espiritu!

Don't respond in Italian please. Apart from a few choice curses, that's about all I remember from my mispent youth growing up in an Italian household.

[The Californian]

Now, do you still want your children to be ignorant of and there less effective against their enemies, or can we get back to work?

Do you really think an elementary school Geography class is appropriate for that? I don't.

[Aquinasfan]

It is a recent PR myth (and Koran/allah-condoned deception for non-Muslim consumption) that violent acts against non-Muslims and bloody jihad are carried out by only a few Muslim fanatics. The very core of Islamic belief lies in the waging of violence against the infidels--or House of War as non-Muslims are called.

Excellent work. Such is the value of homeschooling. < /secret homeschool handshake>

Sorry folks. I had to run out for a bit. I been thinking about this and it would be the supreme irony if in their play acting, his classmates started lining up for martyrdom missions against the teachers lounge! Maybe tommorrow I'll have him tape a peice of paper to his shirt under a sweater that says BOOM!.

He can then explain to the class about the 72 virgins allah is giving him.

The Catholic Encyclopedia entry under "Mohammed and Mohammedanism" concludes with the following paragraph:

In matters political Islam is a system of despotism at home and aggression abroad. The Prophet commanded absolute submission to the imâm. In no case was the sword to be raised against him. The rights of non-Moslem subjects are of the vaguest and most limited kind, and a religious war is a sacred duty whenever there is a chance of success against the "Infidel". Medieval and modern Mohammedan, especially Turkish, persecutions of both Jews and Christians are perhaps the best illustration of this fanatical religious and political spirit.

This article was written in 1911 and could just as easily apply to the situation today as the situation 1000 years ago. The rest of the article is equally instructive.

Good point. Unfortunately, you aren't his teacher. His teacher is probably just going along with the mandated curriculum and has no knowledge of Black Jack Pershing and how he combated terrorism.

Play acting that you are a Muslim being forced to eat pork (which makes THEM seem like poor put-upon victims) is not as effective as TEACHING students how Muslim terrorism was effectively stopped in the Phillipines.

No way today is a multiculuristic PC indoctrinating teacher going to do that.

[condolinda]

PLEASE keep me updated!

[ladylib]

DON'T DO THAT. If you have school officials who are as completely stupid as the ones in NJ, you could have a very big problem on your hand.

We had the "duck sauce bomber" case a couple of years ago. An 8-year-old kid took the remains of his Chinese dinner and wrote "---- bomber" (something to do with a popular wrestler) on it, left it on a walkway, and was actually charged and convicted of making a terroristic threat or having a weapon of mass destruction or some such half-a$$ed thing.
