Maryland High School Students Must Study Islam Says Textbook Group

FOXNEWS and the New York Examiner are reporting that, starting next year, students in the People’s Republic of Maryland will be required to study a ‘softened’ version of Islam.

There will be no mention of war or violence on the subject of jihad, and “inconvenient truths” about sharia law will be expunged.

Montogemery County Schools, apparently bowing to pressure from Muslim groups, is providing the mandatory curriculum as the “politically correct” thing to do.

How much you want to be the Koran will be cited, quoted, and required reading?

Yet liberals will not demand a separation of church and state.  Instead, they will boast of thier tolerance while at the same time seeking to remove anything Christian from anything remotely public. And of course they will do so in order to separate the church from the state.

It’s this type of thinking that is putting America at risk.  I don’t mind culteral differences being taught for information and tolerance sake, but Islam is not necessarily Arab culture - plenty of jewish and christian Arabs.  If we want to teach about the food, the clothing, differences in housing or farming or whatever - that’s fine because we should teach our children about the entire world.  It is not okay to teach our children anything that has to do with religion on a group of people that hate america and do not want to integrate into our country.  This is not mini-middle east or Arabtown.  This is America and we MUST stand up for the very principles we were founded on.  We ARE a Christian country and we will be very smart to remain one.  There is a war going on in America that we are overlooking and that war is absolutely against Christians.  There should be an ad put in the local paper calling every Christian to show up on the steps of the School Administration Building and the courts of that city.  Christians have a voice and we should use it now.

Sadly I think that this will continue throughout the country if conservatives don’t start standing up and fighting liberals.  Where is the ACLU lawsuit over the seperation of church and state?  You know they would be all over that if it was a study of Christianity instead of Islam.



A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.
