Can you all please make up your mind about what is taught in schools. I thought schools were suppose to stick to the facts. These are beliefs and read exactly like a sunday school class would.
Teach the good and bad history of all religions and cultures. maybe bring up statistics of how not every Muslim is a terrorist.
I wouldn't care if it was taught, as long as others were given the same type of lesson, but delving into beliefs in a public school setting is a pretty slippery slope.
How does that particular lesson help to offset any hate against Muslims?
Certainly.
Here is a historical fact for you, less than 1% of Nazi party members were directly involved in the Holocausts. Does that make Nazism "the Fascism of Peace?"
It is the CREED of a movement that sets the tone. Regardless of the fact that most Nazis did not engage in atrocities, the silent support of the Reich allowed such things to occur. Further, the foundation of Nazism was set forth in "Mein Kampf," no one can plead ignorance to what was advocated.
The same holds true with Islam. It is the silent acquiescence of Muslims in general that allow the atrocities, the daily atrocities to occur. Further, the stark evil that is Islam is well documented in the Koran and Hadiths, particularly Bukhari. No one who has studied Islam can claim that the intent of the creed is unclear, nor that ISIS is "perverting" the religion; quite the opposite.
Much of their creed has always been unclear to me and something Ive wanted to learn more about. Extremist pervert everything and I assumed it was the same with ISIS.
