| AMECA Takes Issue with Islamic Indoctrination |
| 2003-11-24 |
| Tip from LGF: We, strongly protest the ongoing plan for the Islamization of America through infiltrating our educational system. American Middle-East Christian Association (AMECA) has learned of Royal Oak Intermediate School, Covina, California, teaching the Islamic religion to America’s young, naive, impressionable school children. In a letter sent home to parents, the teacher wrote, "During the month of Ramadan, Muslims refrain from food or drink during daylight hours." For EXTRA CREDIT, he asked parents’ OK for student participation by choosing "to fast for one, two or three days." America’s Christian children had better not even utter the name Jesus Christ in public schools without persecution and prosecution by the "separation of church and state" zealots. You mention the fact that Christmas has something to do with Jesus Christ and the ACLU will be all over your ass. AMECA will conduct a peaceful educational seminar in accordance with our First Amendment rights on the public sidewalk in front of ROYAL OAK INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL at 303 South Glendora Av in Covina, CA 91723 from 2:00-3:00 p.m. on MONDAY, NOV. 24. We will have a number of experts in Islam to share quotes from the Koran in both Arabic and English. I don’t think CAIR will be too happy about this. We will provide an American civics lesson for Royal Oak students, to see our FIRST AMENDMENT exercised peacefully and profoundly: A RIGHT FOUND IN NO ISLAMIC CONTROLLED NATION ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. Free speech means thinking for yourself, and that’s against the book. |

| #6 SH&SW,I agree but this must include the unvarnished truth about the big 3.If they just feature a prettiefied version of Islam it's propaganda and indocrination. |

| #5 No rotten fruit from me, SH. One of the better classes I had in early colleage was a comparative religions course. The instructor took each of the world's major religions in turn (except Catholicism, since it was a Catholic college and it was, er, assumed that you had that one cold) and discussed them -- here's what they believe, here's what they do, etc. Very helpful in understanding the world. A comparative religions course done right in high school would be a great idea. Unfortunately the LLL, ACLU and the wankers would get ahold of it. Pity. |

| #4 I have now donned riot gear as I await the volley of rotten fruit. Here goes - I don't have a problem with kids learning about Muslims in school. The "extra credit" fasting is a little heavy handed, but too many citizens know too little about people that don't reside in the US. Learning is good as long as there are unsanitized facts presented to kids at an appropriate age. If kids are allowed to graduate High School without seeing pictures of Holocaust survivors then we have done the world no service. Presenting Rammadan is OK as long as honor killing an the Taliban are presneted at an appropriate age. |

| #3 the real way to oppose Islam should be obvious - dont fight it, COMMERCIALIZE it. "i cant get little Ahmed to pay attention to Koran lessons anymore, he spends all of Ramadan at the mall shopping for Eid el Fitr presents" etc. |

| #2 Not that it's hypocritical to confuse a religion with a race (of peoples), but why let logic get in the way of a perfectly predictable whine? |

| #1 Since when has the public schools / Education Association (Union) been concerned with real free speech (including those who disagree with them)? I'm sure that CAIR will be screaming RACISM all over this one. |
