"Could you imagine the outcry from liberal activists if the students had been forced to write “Jesus is Lord’?"
Idiot who wrote the "article."
Pick a God any God. Take two they're small |
Okay, as usual I feel the obligation to point out to all of you that I am indeed a Christian and have been off and on most of my life. Having fairly recently rediscovered my faith, I praise God everyday for all of the blessings and gifts he has given me. So please just forget the hate mail and such I normally get when I post things like this. I am not saying "Allah be praised" or smearing pasta sauce on my belly and praying to the Flying Spaghetti Monster. (Well the praying part I'm not doing any way.) I am merely pointing out the rampant bigotry and double standards that so many so called Christians and Americans seem to have to day. Okay aside done. Onward and downward!
If you have read the article, then you know what this rant is about. If you haven't read it, please do so and come back. We'll wait for you. (Hums to self while doing the hokie pokie) Back? Excellent! We can now move on. So apparently there is much uproar and hooplah in good old Tennessee (Well at least it ain't Texas or Arizona this time. That's a change, right?" because kids are being taught about the Culture of Islam. People are screaming "Religions Indoctrination and proselytization." The fact that is so called Christians doing this amuses me to no end since those two things are pretty much their reason to live.
Now let's get one thing perfectly clear and if you have read the article you know this.... (Again if you haven't by this point, SHAME ON YOU! GO BACK AND READ IT SLACKERS!) Ahem, anyways, lets keep going. Where was I? Oh yeah! The course being taught is basically a course designed to teach kids about another culture and its beliefs. It is an attempt to show them an aspect of the world that they might (Certainly not with those parents, SHEESH) not ever encounter on their own. In other words it is an attempt to educate them and open their eyes to the rest of the world.
If you don't know it, you can't understand it. If you can't understand it, you aren't allowed to hate it. My Blog, my rules! |
Okay so now that we have the basics out of the way, lets quickly cover the insanely hypocritical and truly stupid quote from the article. (I posted it at the very beginning of the blog so even the folks who were too lazy to read the article. I KNOW WHO YOU ARE! I SAW YOU! Ahem, sorry too many energy drinks, I think.) I'll post it again just in case you missed it and don't feel like scrolling up.
"Could you imagine the outcry from liberal activists if the students had been forced to write “Jesus is Lord’?"
Now, like most BS, this one has a grain (Corn?) of true in it. A large number of Liarberals would indeed raise unholy havoc if public schools started teaching a class on Christianity. I can hear them now. (No wait, that's my stomach. I think I might be hungry.) However the hypocrisy arises when you realize that Cantservatives all over the nation are trying to get Christian Creation taught in Public Schools not as a study in religions, but as absolute fact. (The fact that these dummies want Creationism taught as fact, but don't want Evolution taught always amuses me."
See so called Christians, especially ones in positions of power would LOVE if students, even non Christian ones, were being taught the Bible and being forced to write "Jesus is our Lord and Savior." If people did this, there would be tons of GOP support for increased spending on schools. don't believe me? Keep in mind that these are the same people who want School Led Mandatory Prayer and make a fuss if any holidays except for Christian ones appear on school calendars.
Is evil! Unless it is Christian Religion, then its okay. |
Folks, even if you really believe that Islam is the religion of the Devil and all Muslims are rampaging terrorists (It isn't, they aren't just in case you are wondering." you should really want your kids to learn as much about them as possible. I mean, when Enraged Muslim Terrorists sneak over our Mexican Borders (Really? sigh) to steal our bacon and force us to eat Halal foods, we should know as much as we can to battle them, right? When Obama, the Gay Muslim Illegal Immigrant raises his Holy Jihad and steals all of our guns, we should know what to do, right? So let our schoolsl do their job and educate our kids on how to save our country! Sheesh!
In closing, let me leave you with this simple thought. Not that long ago, schools proudly taught classes on other cultures, other religions and yes, other languages. People learned about Islam, Judaism and even Multi-Theistic religions such as those in ancient times. It was considered normal and even required in some cases. Today with rampant bigotry and hatred every where, all of this is fading away. Students are being taught Politically Correct versions of our own history and as little other other history as possible. (Funny how it is always Conservatives calling Liberals out on being too PC, but they are the ones trying to sanitize all of the horrors and atrocities that Americans /Christians have committed over the years.) Let kids learn all they can. Let them understand other religions and other cultures. It might just save their lives. Course it will definitely kill their ignorance.
End of Rant.
