snicker, snicker. You two are amazingly clever. Unfortunately, the local followers of the nea cult probably have no senses of humor, so there may be hell to pay. Let me know what happens.

Maybe the girls in the class can dress with a burka and complain about being whipped and beaten for reading a book.

Catholicism which included having a Catholic priest come in and perform the baptism ceremony on each child in the class

Could not happen.

Maybe your son could explain the recent Sniper fiasco to his class and teacher in this manner. . .

John Muhammad is a declared Black Muzlim who was simply following the edicts of the disgustingly evil Koran !!! . Just ask yourself. . . "How many "heads" did John Muhammad cut off with his rifle???" Period. End of argument !!! And here's some of the Koran's laws that John Muhammad was following:

".... I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, Smite ye above their necks [ CUT OFF THEIR HEADS ] and smite all their finger tips of them [ CUT OFF THEIR FINGERS ]." - Koran 8:12

"When you meet the unbelievers in the Jihad strike off their heads [ CUT OFF THEIR HEADS ] and, when you have laid them low, bind your captives firmly." - Koran 47:4

Final conclusion:

Islam is an evil Religion of Beheading !!!

I expect they will tell him that his view isn't held by the "REAL" muslims but by a few whackjobs.

One decent response:
"But that is the view held by the only really influential Islamics Americans
usually meet...the ones that kill innocent Americans.
AND, even the Moderate Muslims won't be happy until the USA abandons Israel.
At whick time they will dream up some other pretext for hating decadent countries like the USA."

The NEA and the rest of the liberals need to pretend that they have been spotlighted by the truth with no lies to hide behind and explore how they would feel about being forced to eat crow, in violation of their religion, lyingliberalarroganceism.

The "Calendar of Religious and Cultural Observances" for Fairfax County Public Schools is at: http://www.fcps.edu/DHR/oec/relcal03.htm/

Among other things, this calendar is to help teachers avoid giving tests or introduce critical new material on major religious holidays. It will be very difficult for teachers find time to teach math when they have not only to avoid religious holidays but also to consider concepts such as:

March or April  (date yet to be determined) Mahavir Jayanti Birth of Mahavir, the 24th and last Tirthanker ("Church-Founder") of Jain religion. Opportunity to discuss origins and beliefs of Jain religion as related to the POS.

May or June Festival of the Goddess of Sam Mountain Statue on Sam Mountain in Vietnam is a good luck symbol to people of many countries in Indochina regardless of their religion. Observed by some immigrant groups in Virginia. Opportunity to discuss concept of good luck as expressed in various cultures.

May 1 + Beltane Wiccan spring festival of creation with origins in ancient Celtic and Druid folklore. Opportunity to discuss effects of ancient cultures and folklore on modern society as related to POS.

There are no holidays listed for Filipinos, but the Calendar does list Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month, "chosen because May 10 marks completion of transcontinental railroad built primarily by Chinese laborers." FALSE! The Southern Pacific (western section) workers were mostly Chinese immigrants, but workers on the Union Pacific (eastern section) were mostly Irish immigrants.

Ireland gets little mention in our local schools - leprechauns and pots of gold seem to be about it. Wouldn't St. Patrick's Day be an "opportunity to discuss the concept of religious tolerance" or "current events as related to world peace," as are suggested on some other days? Nope. As noted above, the FCPS Calendar does state Wiccans have origins in ancient Celtic and Druid folklore and then goes on to say,

Mar 17 + St. Patrick's Day Commemorates Roman Catholic Bishop, Patron Saint of Ireland, who brought Christianity there. Opportunity to discuss the role of the Irish in American history

[I suspect that means The Kennedy Epic.]

I am a tad surprised that All Saints Day and Epiphany are now Latin American holidays - I guess the rest of the Catholics don't get to miss school on these days:

Nov 1 + All Saints' Day, Dia de los Muertos Holy Day of Obligation for Roman Catholics is important celebration in Mexico and Latin America and also observed by the Eastern Orthodox and Anglican churches to honor martyrs and saints who have no special feast day. Students and employees for whom this is a time of religious significance could be absent.

Jan 6 + Epiphany or Three Kings' Day Celebrates visit of the Three Kings to infant Jesus and ends the 12 Days of Christmas. Major holiday in Latin American. Students and employees for whom this is a time of religious significance could be absent.

Yet despite my desire to see more about Christianity, I wonder why the Calendar lists Huguenot Day Celebrates the granting of religious freedom to Protestants in France with issuance of the Edict of Nantes but not Bastille Day.

Yes, the calendar does list dates important to Jews, but ignores these events when they are inconvenient. Example: Some football games, delayed because of the sniper, are now rescheduled for the evening of 29 November, the first night of Hanukkah.

"I would love to hear from other FReepers what you all think about my little bit of activism."

I am laughing so hard...I have an Italian appreciation for subtlety and irony, and BOY does that qualify as BOTH.

Hope he doesn't get into trouble, and you with him, but if you do, it looks like you have already given yourself and your son the perfect defence platform on which to stand.

I explained to him that he should return to class and say he has consulted with his imam who has now issued a fatwa against the NEA decreeing them to be infidel polluters of the faith and subject to jihadi action by all faithful followers of islam.

This is great! Please keep us posted as to the results of this farce in geography.

May Allah be with you.....hahahahahahahahahah.

In any case though, I am sure he will learn something of value.

My homeschooled son and I learned something of value regarding Islam more than a year before the events of 9/11/01. We read the entire Koran and Hadith given to us by a local Imam. We also studied Mohammad and Islamic culture with no preconceived ideas about Muslim beliefs. What we learned shocked us.

It is a recent PR myth (and Koran/allah-condoned deception for non-Muslim consumption) that violent acts against non-Muslims and bloody jihad are carried out by only a few Muslim fanatics. The very core of Islamic belief lies in the waging of violence against the infidels--or House of War as non-Muslims are called. Forget that "religion of peace" and "jihad is a personal struggle with allah" hogwash. Jihad means violent force in the name of allah to gain converts or smite the enemy. (The enemy is anyone who isn't a Muslim.)

All truly devout Muslims must engage or support via jihad Islam's end game which is that of a world totally converted or subjugated to a barbaric, medieval series of 7th Century laws known as Sharia. Sharia is a political/religious rule that denies freedom of choice. Under Sharia, people must adhere to a strict set of diciplines interpreted by a bunch of power-hungry, hypocritical Imams and enforced by yet another set of power-hungry, hypocrical religious police.

During jihad and after Sharia is in place, Muslims are allowed by the exhortations within the Koran and Hadith to cheat, loot from, extort, (by means of a religious bribe or ransom) ambush, deceive, (LIE TO) rape, enslave and murder the infidels with impunity. Any Muslim who doesn't agree with these tactics or decides to leave Islam for another faith or denies God altogether is a heretic and is subject to death.

Yeah, there may be more than a few persons who were born into Islam who don't take their religion seriously. These so-called moderate, peace-loving Muslims have, for the most part, remained silent, whine about their own "safety" from the infidels, blame the hated Jews and Western Culture for the acts committed by the terrorist Muslims, and are not taking a very active role in turning in the "few fanatics" who live and OPENLY speak and preach hatred against the infidels among them. I would assume that to do otherwise invites their more devout brethren to punish or kill them for denying the faith...

I hope that you have learned your lesson regarding Islam today. My homeschooled son and I didn't take our study of Islam's obvious roots in Muslim fanaticism very seriously until 9/11.

"My town Byron had the same problem. I led the protest against it and we got it stopped. I was on the David Gold and Jay Seculo (sp?) radio shows to discuss this last year."

Congratulations on your success. I often wondered how that had turned out.

Your points are well made and I agree with them - except that there are more than a few thousand, and all Muslim terrorist groups are loosly affiliated under the same, massive Organized Crime/Terrorism Ring. They are a force, and we must not understimate them.

I am always careful to identify the actual group which is at war with us as "Islamonazis", "Islamakazis" and "Wahhabist____ (with occasional unflattering qualifications, depending on how mad I am) in order to stress that there IS a peaceful group that isn't out to kill us all, but there IS a warloving group that IS out to kill us all...

HOWEVER, teaching Islam in a public school also falls under the Seperation of Church and State issue, so if you feel that HU is teaching his son too much intolorance, perhaps it should be attacked from that angle.
