This thread is an example as to why you should never drink and do the internet. Remember kids, friends don't let friends drink and do the internet.

Is that an apology?

Another public school has come under fire for celebrating the Muslim holiday of Ramadan in a way that appears to endorse the religion of Islam.

The Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund (FCDF) reports it happened at the West New York School District in New Jersey.

FCDF sent the letter to Superintendent Ms. Clara Brito Herrera and Memorial High Principal Scott Wolhrab after an anonymous teacher contacted FCDF on behalf of other teachers, all of whom are deeply concerned about the school district's promotion of Islam.

Another Public School with a Pro-Islam Ramadan Policy: 'May Allah Continue to Shower You - Love and Wisdom'

Uh, they promote Christianity way more than that.

By "they", are you referring to the school in the OP?

[Father Heathen]

It's not.

Then it would be disappearing rather than spreading, no?

 

[Father Heathen]

I never even heard of Islam growing up. Nobody did until 911.

That isn't true at all unless you were either home schooled or lived in an area with a really ****ty school system.

I don't hate Americans. Some Americans have been good. Anwar al-Awlaki was American

Judging by your stated religion and silly anime avatar I gather that you're young and naive and are simply spouting sentiments that you've been indoctrinated with. I'm sure you've been taught some choice thoughts on Jews as well.

Indoctrinated? I'm a convert to Islam. I was raised Christian. You think I'm some Hezbollah member?

We had one teacher who came in specifically to teach us about all different religions.

My mom told me that when she was a kid, they would take field trips to different churches and such to learn about different religions, IIRC. But she was born in 1950, so.

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

Politics and religion have NO BUSINESS in schools. Literature does. Our culture is our artists and writers.

Well, we better not teach Greek and Roman classics, then.

And he would've killed you, too, Twelver Shia. Hahaha.

 

[ChristineM]

Our artists, innovators and writers... Did you know USC was the birthplace of the internet?

And did you know tim berners lee made it useable, he is a brit who worked at cern ?

 

[ChristineM]

No. They need to talk about Tom Sawyer and fishin n'' and stuff.

They need to educate and to prepare students for life. Is fishing more important than ironing cross cultural divides that usually end up in friction, war or terrorism?

Schools in America. We need to balance it out by learning about different cultures and religions.

With it becoming easier to learn about and travel to different places in the world, we definitely need to focus on different things, like you mentioned.

 

[Duke_Leto]

Wow you really are a true American. Cannot take a joke at all. If I posted the navy seal copypasta, would you call the police?

Living in terrified apprehension toward the outside world is our patriotic right as Americans, goddamnit.
