ACLU and Freedom from religion foundation is completely absent. Courts side with school. School is allowed to force students to write a Muslim prayer.

LINK

quote:

When Wood was a junior, one of her teachers told her to write the Muslim conversion prayer called the Shahada, which states: “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.”

Wood refused to complete the assignment. She requested an alternative assignment, but the school denied her, so she failed the assignment.

... Then the teacher forced Wood and her classmates to view subjective PowerPoint slides that belittled Christian students, according to the petition.

One said, “Most Muslims’ faith is stronger than the average Christian.”

Others said, “Islam at heart is a peaceful religion,” and Jihad is a “personal struggle in devotion to Islam, especially involving spiritual discipline,” and “Islam at heart is a peaceful religion.”

The high school’s content specialist, Jack Tuttle, said the comparisons between Christians and Muslims was not appropriate.


lol at the absence of the FFRF who all libs say is “uhhginst all relighun equally”

Does this school also make Muslims write the opposite?

Does it make Jews write out the full text of “God?”

I don’t see how that’s any different.

If they use body counts over the last 500 years as the measure, this is probably accurate.

This is a flat fricking lie.

Well this is what should be front and center in the argument. Why is a religion even being talked about in a public school. If it's now illegal to say a prayer before a ballgame then any mention of religion in school should be taboo.

SCOTUS rejected the case, but don't let me stop you from pushing your narrative.

Muslims claim that Allah is the greatest deceiver.
I have to agree.

If that was my daughter you can bet she wouldn't be writing a God damned thing. And that teacher when he least expected it would get an arse beating he would not soon forget.

Eventually some will seek to form a separate nation-state on this land that we call America.

I thought we had a conservative Supreme Court. You mean that Thomas or Roberts or some other conservative and Trump appointee didn't want this case heard?

My guess is that Trump et al like making money dealing with muslims over Christianity.

So I guess no one will say a word if a school requires a student to write a Christian prayer.

Dan Barker is only desiring freedom from the one religion.

Dude would be cool with any other religion dominating. Barker would hail and celebrate the coming of Sharia Law, if it meant the end to Christian prayer at football games.

That entire organization is a laughable joke.

To be fair I think the Satanist teachers should get equal respect.

I’d yank my kid out of that school so fast.
People forget how much power the parents have.. if indeed the kid has parents involved.

Godless leftists are doing everything they can to fight against the truth and create rebellion against the Lord. I hope they repent before it is too late.

This thread is already many pages deep, so my comment will be buried... but I have to say it anyway:

Good for the girl, for refusing to write a prayer to the derka derka pedophile. And shame on anyone that actually thinks anything about that belief system is "peaceful" or that Jihad is a "spiritual struggle for personal peace"...

Yeah, it's based on peace by eventually getting your personal "peace" after you've beheaded everyone else that doesn't believe like you do.

Sophomore year at a Catholic high school we had a comparative religion class. I had to write that exact statement, among others, to prove I knew the tenets of the Muslim faith. I'm a Christian and always will be, bit I dont see a problem with learning a little about a religion in order to understand their culture better.

I also agree that most muslims have a "stronger" faith; that's why so many of them are such crazy frickin zealots.

I have no problem with including a little religion in social studies curriculum if it helps American kids understand cultures of the world.
