Public school students at Friendswood Junior High in the Houston area have been roped into Islamic training by representatives from the Council on American-Islamic Relations during class time, prompting religious leaders to protest over Principal Robin Lowe's actions.
Pastor Dave Welch, spokesman for the Houston Area Pastor Council, confirmed the indoctrination had taken place and called it "unacceptable."
"The failure of the principal of Friendswood Junior High to respect simple procedures requiring parental notification for such a potentially controversial subject, to not only approve but participate personally in a religious indoctrination session led by representatives of a group with well-known links to terrorist organizations and her cavalier response when confronted, raises serious questions about her fitness to serve in that role," the pastors' organization said.
According to a parent, whose name was withheld, the children were given the Islamic indoctrination during time that was supposed to be used for a physical education class.
"I am simply trying to get the word out to those whose kids may not have told them about an Islamic presentation that all kids were required to attend," wrote the parent, who was working to assemble protests to the school board.
WND previously has reported how public school textbooks being used across the nation have begun promoting Islam, teaching even the religious doctrines.

Are the Texas social workers going to grab the children, or is this a culturally sanctioned event?
Texas children roped into Islamic training...
and the f’n lib/dems support this in the name of diversity...
but teach one thing about the bible ~ either new or old testatment ~ and the aclu will be suing in NY Minute!!!
There are several potential futures for North America. Balkanization with devolution (5 separate republics on the NA continent), an Iron fisted plutocracy masquerading as democrary like in Russia, or (my favorite) degeneration into a multi-racial territorial driven second rate republic like India.
Don't demand a Christian response instead demand a hour of the Constitution, specifically the Bill of Rights.
If the school board doesn't provide this, vote them out, that they will understand.
Round up every CAIR creep involved, line them up in front of a ditch, execute the lot, and push some dirt on top.
CAIR’s function is to bring about the destruction of our way of life. The only way to stop them is extermination.
Im just waiting for it to happen in my Texas town and when it does...... You will know my name for sure!
I suspect the students at Friendswood Junior High paid about as much attention to their "Islamic training" as they pay to history or english or any other subject.
Not many brain surgeons ever came out of Friendswood. Roughly zero that I know of.

First step: Fire the Principal, Robin Lowe.

Principal Robin Lowe.

Separation of church and state ping.
Ping
If people want on or off this list, please let me know.
Amen
Whatever happened to separation of church and state?
Well, “separation of church and state” really means exclusion of Christianity from any public life.
“Multiculturalism” means denegration of the Western Culture.
“Diversity” means anything non-white.
You get the idea.
Sadly, yes.
Gah, Guilty!
Of course his only comment would be, "I'll...uh get to that...uh, blah, blah, blah, mumble, mumble, sweetie.
"Yes, we can !"
Bravo Sierra
Let's have fun naming the new republics. How about California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas becoming the Republic of New Beanistan?
I have no words; atleast that are printable.
Gadzooks Nuts Abound
If I had young children today, I would send them to Christian Schools or Home School them, there would be no way in HELL that I would send them to Public concentration Camp, and expect them to be anything but robots when they came out.
GIVE ME BACK MY COUNTRY!
Diversity also means queerdom is exalted over heterosexuality, you know, the whole “Heather Has Two (or Three, or Four) Mommies” thing.
If these students start taking hostages, we’ll know why.
Good idea! Hold a recall election.
By the way...Do you honestly believe that the liberal/Marxists, homosexuals, feminazis running the government schools could teach anything about the Constitution? They would be teaching the children that it was a “living” document, and give all the students a copy to use for toilet paper!
I’ll bet my last dollar that Robin is a ‘Rat!
Speaking of suing, I would suggest that the parents, acting on behalf of their children, might have a good constitutional law suit against the school ditrict, the principal, and CAIR. The grounds: violating the chidren’s constitutional right to freedom of religion.

The downside is when you live in a Muslim school district, your children get Muslim religious training.
It does in the sense of freedom from being involuntarily exposed to religious indocrination programs on or in public property, which seems to be what happened to the children in this instance.

Public schools are not for sectarian religious training, according to our courts' interpretation of the Constitution. If parents wish their children to have sectarian religious training in a specific religious tradition, they should send them to private sectarian institutions for such purposes. Furthermore, I get the impression that the school district in question here is not a predominantly "Muslim school district."
How about requiring equal time for FLDS training?
I’m sure the schools would like that... (evil grin)
This is another reason why public schools should be abolished. But that is about as likely to happen as Americans waking up one day tired of being slaves and yearning to be free men again.
You might be right about that. Some of the kids were not listening at all. Doing their text messaging thing, etc. A couple of parents I talked to told me so.

You don't know much about Friendswood ISD. It is a fantastic school district. The kids are much brighter than than Robin Lowe in this case. And Friendswood is a VERY Christian town. That's why there is so much blowback over this issue.
Friendswood was founded by Quakers. Muslims? I've never met one here.
And you know so much about Friendswood, just how?
Friendswood ISD graduates a lot of bright kids that mostly go on to college and well beyond, including to medical school. I would be very surprised if there wasn’t at least one over the years that went on to become a neurosurgeon, as the nearby Houston Medical Center is one of the largest and best collection of medical facilities in the World. There probably are a few neurosurgeon living in Friendswood as well, as it is a rather upscale bedroom community for Houston.
Unless, like myself, you spent your 2nd - 12th grades IN the FISD - I'd guess I know more about the FISD than you do.
I've been somewhat intimately familiar with the 'tards that take classes there, the 'tards that teach them, and the 'tards that administer the entire charade.
Do you work for the FISD? Just asking. At any rate I'll repeat that there are NO brain surgeons in Friendswood today - not that graduated in Friendswood. I'd bet my last buck on that.
And - there are NO students that paid enough attention to the lesson to remember it today. Unless, of course, there's some little daddy's-girl type that takes notes of everything throughout the day. THEN you might have identified someone that can look up the happenings of the day.
"Christian town" - [guffaw]. That ended with the Blue Laws.
IMO, of course.
My apologies for posting to a thread and leaving it. I no longer reside in the US and spend most of the year traveling. At any rate, here is my response to another poster on this thread (and I think it applies to):

Good luck. With a Friendswood High "education" (?) you'd need it. Again - IMO.
Hmm, You just defined yoursef as a "retard" so I'm not sure your viewpoint is too valuable to me.
Out of curiosity, what year did you graduate?
And I can assure you that I've done a lot better than the brain surgeons you support.
They're stupid *beyond* belief.
They still have (I'm told) "Doctor" Kennedy associatided with FHS.
That's *laughable* on many levels!
Keep chugging at the wheel. You'll get there eventually. LOL.
Good luck.
25 years later you live out of state and you are an expert on all Friendswood schools? Have you been in Westwood or Bales recently? Know any of the teachers? Are you familiar with the curriculum? Ever been on a school board? In my case the answers to the last four questions is yes.
And I can assure you that I've done a lot better than the brain surgeons you support.
Before you were a "tard" and now you are not? OK...
They're stupid *beyond* belief.
Prove it.
They still have (I'm told) "Doctor" Kennedy associatided with FHS.
Never met the person.
That's *laughable* on many levels!
Please explain.

Odd comment. I'm not sure what that means. Do you know what that means?
Good luck.
Uh huh...
