All schools shut down in Augusta County, Virginia, over Islam homework
CNN ^ | 12/18/15 | Ben Brumfield

Posted on 12/18/2015 12:10:46 PM PST by SoFloFreeper

After a teacher at a Virginia school handed out a standard homework assignment on Islam, such an angry backlash flooded in that it prompted officials to close every single school in the county as a safety precaution.

If liberal Christians can interpret the Bible as supporting gay marriage, then pretty much anyone can interpret any text to mean anything.

I repudiate the atheist filth posing as Christians. Supporting a bunch of baby-killing witches and boy-raping queers is not interpreting, it's lying.

Because they can reinterpret there texts in a benign way.

It was KILL THE INFIDELS!

Now it's "be civil to the infidels" (and let the mohammedans kill them)

That’s your interpretation. The government takes no position on the,question, as far as I know. There are moslems who disagree, and are starting to find a collective voice.

I thought this might happen. The lure of the American dream is very great, and many who come here come to love America (not all). And American culture is largely about the opportunity for reinvention, and the desire to reinvent one’s religion to put the conscience at ease about being a loyal American is high. And if one succeeds, then he can enjoy being a loyal American while being a devout member of his faith (as reconfigured in his own mind).

You may repudiate them thusly, and I, for one, don’t agree with their silly interpretation, but there practically isn’t anything to stop them. Not even the Supreme Court-sanctioned law.

That's your interpretation.

It is not my interpretation. ISIS has said as much...and repeatedly. (The Caliphate?)

The government takes no position on the,question, as far as I know.

Well the government might not, but the law does. That is what throws so much credibility behind Trump's position of stopping the influx of the murdering rapists.

American culture is largely about the opportunity for reinvention, and the desire to reinvent one's religion to put the conscience at ease about being a loyal American is high.

Yeah yeah yeah.

Look at what is happening in Europe...it's the same bunch of murdering rapists that are to be coming here. They have no desire to "reinvent" their "religion" NOR to become loyal Americans. Hassan, the Boston bombers, this recent whacked couple in San Bernadino and many many more. The Somalians, the Dearborn crowd, Seattle....all unassimilated, and many even attempting to tell us to change.

Some may have broken away, but we're not talking about Syrian or Coptic Christians now are we. I doubt anyone ever has any trouble with them. They do want to become loyal Americans.

There are moslems who disagree, and are starting to find a collective voice.

Well the three of them better start yelling real loud....in order to be heard over the explosions, gunfire and screams of "Allah akbar!"

if one succeeds, then he can enjoy being a loyal American while being a devout member of his faith

Good grief! They have no interest in becoming Americans (we're Christians here) and "his faith"...you yourself described it as a "false religion" GET A GRIP!

When the pushback starts happening, and the shooting commences, what side are your good muzzie buddies going to be on? I think we already know the answer to that one.

You’re starting out with the false premise that ISIS’ interpretation is right. But actually, while many moslems want sharia, few agree with ISIS’ interpretation of islam, which is a fairly idiosyncratic, apocalyptic view. Because many moslems don’t agree withem, they kill a lot of moslems. There penalty for heresy is a bit harsh.

But even if they won over the overall majority of moslems to their peculiar theology, it wouldn’t be the “right” interpretation of islam because ISLAM IS A FALSE RELIGION. Thus, there can’t be any “right” interpretations.

The law does not have an interpretation of islam. It merely allows the president the leeway to restrict immigration of certain groups.

There are several million moslems in the US. Some dozens have committed terrorist acts.

Oh, now we’re back to murderers and rapists? I thought we’d got past tgat. Even trump says he knows lots of great moslems. I doubt he would call anyone great who was a rapist. Or a murderer. Well, except putin.

Well, despite what you say, some are speaking up.

And some number do want to be good Americans. And good moslems, at the same time.

I don’t know how well they’ll succeed, but I wish them luck and good fortune. A less ideologically violent is rare in this world.

Thank you for admitting your failings, you would think that a person with a degree in psychology would not have such a shortcoming.

If these certain moslems you speak of are such good people, why don't they completely curtail their association with such a bloodthirsty ideology?

If they're good and decent people then it's in spite of islam, not because of it.

Islam is evil and corrupt.

If you happen to know some decent muslims, it’s in spite of islam, not because of it.

The ideology of islam is not compatible with freedom, the west, and a representative republic.

If you can’t homeschool, at least be as involved as possible with the school.

Truly, homeschooling is not as difficult as one thinks: a lot of online resources and curriculum are available. And you can let your student(s) be educated at a level where they can excel.

Very true. As a father of 8 homeschooled kids I can and have said repeatedly that it's easier to teach your children to read than to teach them to do the dishes.

Now that my youngest two are in High school, I'm so proud of them I can't even get myself to push academics anymore.

Sadly, there is no truth within you. You are a dammocrap labor union lackey. I have gotten to the point where you bore me. I keep getting the same public school talking points, and you just don’t have anything original to say.

So, please forgive me, but I’m going to start ignoring you. I may randomly check on you in the future, to see if you’ve passed your big l abortion union drivel, but for now, this will be your chance at a free shot to show off to other posters, since I won’t read it, and thus, won’t respond. Good-bye. Be well.

Three wrong statements in one sentence, that is is new record for you. First Registered Republican since 1978, but only voting for the Conservative endorsed candidates. Second Virginia does not require union membership so I declined. third I am no ones lackey proven by my unwillingness to bow to your stupidity about moderate muslims.

Te;ll me how you got a psych degree by not being able to read or at least comprehend what you do read.

What's all this "interpretation" crap? They're reading it verbatim. That's why they call them moslem fundamentalists.

Quran (2:191) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah is worse than killing...

Maybe I'll go find some "rape-verses" now. Quran (2:216) - "Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not."

Quran (4:74) - "Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward."

Quran (5:33) - "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement"

Quran (8:12) - "I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them"

Quran (8:65) - "O Prophet, exhort the believers to fight..."

That was Big Mo...talking to himself.

Quran (9:30) - "And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!"

Yup there he goes again...ridin the crazy train.
