#1 A federal district court judge in San Francisco had previously determined that the school district had not violated the constitution.

Abso-phuquing-lutely amazing. But nothing that a good-sized nuke couldn't solve....

#2 So, Islam is ok, but christianity is not because it violates the seperation of church and state according the the ACLU.

Am I fucking missing something here or is this the biggest piece of hypocritical crap I have ever seen?

#3 "If the public school's practice is upheld on appeal, all public schools should begin teaching classes on Christianity in the same manner as the Islam class was taught in this case."

Nah. I think that we all know that this ain't gonna happen.

I'd be more interested to know who thought this was a good idea in the first place. In a real world with real investigative journalists, there'd be a Pulitzer Prize in uncovering this infamy. But...we live in a world where the only way to a PP is to vilify anyone who's not solidly liberal.

#4 Things like this are why it is important to pass Propositions 74 and 75. It is also inidicative of why the teachers unions are so hysterical in their opposition to them.

#5 Given the proximity to the Bay area, the only reason that they are teaching the kids to Muslim is because the teachers there perceive muslims to be the enemy of the United States and the enemy of their enemy is their friend.

#8 Am I missing something.

What the school is doing is forcing the children go BECOME MUSLIM IN FACT. Since all one has to do to become muslim is to recide 'There is no god but allan...' right?

This also means that these children are also locked into Islam -- since leaving Islam is justification for murder in most Islamic states.

As far as the ACLU is concerned - the ACLU is not against religion - just christianity and Judism.
