This seems to be ritualistic. Bizarre at the very least.

It's like "let's all play with the Ouija board to learn about the history of parlor games."

If these were any of my kids, I would tell them to write “Jesus Christ is my lord and savior”.

This is sick and demented. Our education system needs to be purged. Gross negligence.

“They said it was all about the art—not about the theology. “

Uh Huh... Sure. Calligraphy is ONLY used in that statement? There’s nothing in Chinese, Korean, or Japanese script? Students couldn’t practice Old English calligraphy? The teacher is a sneak, a bum, and anti-Christian hater and knew EXACTLY what was going on .

OK, then write something nice about Jesus. Their heads would explode.

I think it was intentional as shown by the related burka wearing.

It seems to be a policy at middle and high schools. Here in TN middle school parents protested the pro-Islam slant of social studies textbooks. My 10th grade son's AP World History class is over the top pro-Islam. I don't blame the teacher, he is just teaching what will be on the AP test this spring If the kids don't loudly "Allah Snackbar" they won't do well on the test.

Is someone thinking I’m buying the school’s explanation for one second.

What Islam calls “Allah” is a false god, not the God, not Jesus Christ who is “The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6)

Why is it always Islam or Muslim lessons that seem to be creeping into school systems across the country? Just goes to show you this is planned and not coincidental.

This should be a worry to everyone, not just those with kidsin public school systems.

I say parents should file suit every chance they can to put a stop to this crap, and insist that anyone responsible be fired immediately.

My God! When I was a child I adored geography. The maps and the wonderful assignments to draw them and attach stuff from a dusty old drawer to represent a country's exports! A bent staple to represent silver, a broken shoe buckle to represent copper, a tiny trinket from a charm bracelet to represent gold! Then carefully printing the capitol of the country in magic marker. And now this...

Very good, students.

Now, for our next calligraphy lesson, we’ll do the same thing, in ARABIC. Much prettier, isn’t it?

Every time mohammedans call their demon “allah”, they commit blasphemy.

“A Virginia school district is defending a classroom assignment that required students to practice calligraphy by writing the Muslim statement of faith, “There is no god but Allah. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.” “

Did they do this before having their generic winter festival that celebrates nothing in particular?

I am very curies about the religion of the teacher who came up with this assignment.....I got an idea lets use calligraphy to write out the opening lines to Mien Kampf if we do it in the Aryan language of German the Jews in the class room wont be harmed because they will have no idea what they are writing.
