Ah...it was in a comparative religion class. Islam is one of the most significant “religions” in the world.

If you did not want your kid to understand how a billion or so people think, perhaps you should not have allowed your kid to take the course.

This parent is uninvolved, ignorant, and just plain stupid.

It’s like taking a course about 20th century Europe, and being pissed off about them discussing Nazis.

No, it’s like teaching a sanitized version of Nazis.

? it was in a comparative religion class. Islam is one of the most significant “religions” in the world.”

Where in the article does it say it was a comparative religion class?

I can see in a history class segments on all the major religions. This seems a pretty favorable story on Muhammed. did it also mention he used 6 y o girls?
I would like to read how Christianity and Judaism are handled> What do they say about Jesus for instance.

Well, you can call it a “religion” if you wish. My study on islam was in an ideology class in college. And we did not have to recite the “prayer” about there is no god but allah. Islam is an ideology bent on world conquest and nothing more than a cult. Remember Jim James and his cool aide? That was a “religion” too. Do I need to know how they think? Well, they show it rather well every day. It may have been on this site or another, where I read about the woman who was accused of adultery. They put her in a hole in the ground. She begged her father for mercy, and then the “father” started it off by throwing the first stone. This is how they think, huh? Then another case, just a couple of days ago where an uncle warned his 11 year old niece about wearing lipstick. Then uncle sees her a day or two later wearing lipstick and sets her afire and burns her alive. Burned more than 90% over her body. No I don’t think I have to learn any more about how these vermin think. I used to call them barbarians, but now believe they have not risen to that level yet. They are savages, always have been and always will be. You, of course, are entitled to your opinion.

C’mon, you don’t SERIOUSLY think that the descriptions shown from the course depict anything even remotely like psycho muslim reality?

absolutely appropriate for a comparative religion as an elective subject in a university...anything below that level it is totaally out of line.
