Gee. Imagine the screaming if they had to write “Jesus is Lord” for the assignment.

Guess we know where we all stand now.

Correct, it was using the wrong argument.

It doesn’t violate her first amendment rights, but there is absolutely no reason to include a violent religion in a school curriculum.

SCOTUS: What ever happened to separation of church and state...oh, I forgot that only applies to Christianity doesn’t it?

[[which she had to write, “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah,”]]

The left scream about ‘separation of church and state’ but are silent when students are forced to write that nonsense?

Imagine the uproar if she had to write “Christ is superior to any other religion’s false saviors, because He is the actual Son of the Living God of all creation, while all other supposed ‘saviors’ are completely human, who worship false gods- not the true God of creation. There is no God but Yahweh”-

Is it the Supreme Court? Or the insane 4th court of appeals

Any functional parent would take their kid out of school if the child were sick. Why not take the child out when the school is sick?

They waste time and money on lawyer? They could hire tutors for less money. The mom or dad could quit their job

Home school. Just duh. Either you accept government incoming the upbringing of your kids or you don’t

So, she was compelled for a grade to write/recite the confession of Islamic faith.

And the court agrees.

AntiChristian League is missing in action as usual. Mosque and State is okay in the West. AND it is funded by foreign powers as well as US taxpayers.

Supposed ‘Satanists’ don’t protest this either.

on its face, three first amendment violations,
1. establishment of religion
2. interference with her free exercise of religion
3. forced speech

"The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with Arnold and Morris, ruling the teachings at issue “did not impermissibly endorse any religion nor did they compel Wood to profess any belief.”"

"...a fill-in-the-blank worksheet in which she had to write, “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah,”

I fear the time will soon be upon us when violent resolution will be the rule rather than the exception.

And I'm not talking about playing silly little games with tar and feathers neither...

No problem with this, since it is the PUBLIC SCHOOLS and they are run by Leftists. Parents who don’t like it can consider pulling their kids out or otherwise not ‘supporting’ those schools...but most parents that I know seem to have no issue with LEFTISTS indoctrinating their kids (otherwise, they wouldn’t be subjecting their kids to the abuse we call ‘public schools’), so they really have no standing to complain when it happens - after all, Leftists will be, well, Leftists - particularly why they have your kids all to themselves.

Good call by the Supreme Court here.

‘most Muslims’ faith “is stronger than the average Christian” and a fill-in-the-blank worksheet in which she had to write, “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah,”’

Generally speaking, more sympathetic I could not be, but I’m thinking this is mostly a discussion of factoids on the ME, and context is important.

First, while it’s mostly an opinion that can’t really be proven, I’d guess with weak watered-down American and European Christians the former is true. Yes, I could be offended if it was presented as irrefutably true, but it’s not an attack on Christianity as much as a statement about how people hold to it.

2nd, why was she to write this? Was it play-acting that you must pretend to be a Moslem? Or was it the answer to “what is the statement that Moslems must profess?”

Islam is an evil blight on humanity. The funny thing is that liberals who actually should recognize that Islam is completely incompatible with their view of the world preach tolerance of Islam. They will be the first ones to have their heads severed from their bodies.

This is just a proxy battle in the war on Christianity.

WILLIAM FEDERER explains how Muslims overtake cultures...

ISLAM: to submit
MUSLIMS: have submitted.

Muslim 3-Step Program:
* Religious - Immigrate to a country.
* Political - Increase in number.
* Militant - Eliminate those who oppose them.

Take time to listen to this short C-SPAN book review by American Historian by WILLIAM FEDERER on Islam. Pass the link to others.

During the Q & A a student asked why legislators are so weak when it comes to condemning Islamic aggression.

FEDERER responded, “3 Things.”
1. They are ignorant about the history of Islam.
2. They are afraid of Islam aggression.
3. They are on the take.

What Every American Needs to Know About the Qur'an

It is time to vote in a new school board and have them clean house. That is all that needs to be done.

A school board is the agent of the voters. The school board appoints the superintendent who then sets the course.

I am torn. School is for learning. History of religion is one of the coursework. Allah is a true god is historical in Muslim religion. But saying Muslim is better then Christian is false and she could have written a debate on it.
