Great. When is the assignment to simulate taking Communion, or getting a Bar Mitzvah?
Of course, there are no such assignments. The initiative to indoctrinate students with a partial and whitewashed picture of Islam, however, is near-universal in public schools across the country.
“High school assignment had kids simulate Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca,” by Caleb Parke, Fox News, October 18, 2017:
Massachusetts high school students pretended to be Muslims in the “Islamic” city of Jerusalem as part of a class assignment used in Newton Public Schools to teach about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a new report revealed.
One father was particularly upset when he discovered his daughter had been assigned what he described as an inflammatory pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel article, according to the report. The man was allegedly told by the school’s principal that lessons the next year would be even more upsetting to him.
The class assignment, “Cities: Connecting the Islamic Word,” was published in an excerpt from a book by CAMERA, the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting.
“As our concluding project on the Islamic world, you will work in groups to simulate a historical hajj (pilgrimage) to Mecca in class,” a teacher wrote in the assignment description. “Each of you will be part of a group of Muslim pilgrims from one of the following eight Islamic cities or regions, around a rough time period.”
One of the eight “Islamic” cities is Jerusalem, and students are instructed to set up a “tent,” which will display newspaper articles about “their” cities and cultural artifacts to represent their Islamic “hometowns.”
The CAMERA report, “Indoctrinating Our Youth: How a U.S. Public School Curriculum Skews the Arab-Israeli Conflict and Islam,” is a case study on allegedly biased materials used by Newton Public Schools to teach 9th and 10th graders about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Islamic history and culture. Newton is located about seven miles outside Boston, in a Middlesex County suburb.
“Citizens of Newton have been waging a minor war with school officials for years now, trying to get them to use balanced curriculum in their teaching materials on the subject of Islam and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” Judicial Watch Senior Investigator Bill Marshall told Fox News….
Saxton told Fox News the Newton school board and superintendent were “very uncooperative” and “non-transparent” regarding what was in their textbooks….
Marshall said the teaching materials “use as little, if any material on the violent history of Islam.” In one lesson plan on the “Spread of Islam” the teacher’s notes indicate Muslim conquerors acted “decently” to their subjects….
Saxton called it an example of a “purposeful attempt to indoctrinate our impressionable high-schoolers with the ‘virtues’ of Islam at the expense of Christianity, Judaism and other religions.”…
John D.Alder says
I suppose a simulated pilgrimage to Lourdes or Fatima would be out of the question? We are drifting further and further away from our cultural and spiritual roots,away from God. The Book of Jeremiah says when we have strayed too far God closes his ears to a nations prayers. We are treading on dangerous ground and it WILL end badly.

Another irony here is that none of these “filthy Infidels” would be allowed to *actually* go to Mecca. They would be risking arrest and deportation–or even murder–if they tried it.
Here are the signs on the approach to Mecca:

This type of cultural jihad has been going on for some time now, under our noses, masquerading as multiculturalism.
I knew of an elementary public school in Kingston, ON, that had all the students observe Ramadan approximately TWENTY YEARS AGO. I knew a couple of the students who were forced to participate in the practice.
At the same time that they removed all mention of Christmas and Easter in public schools, our government school boards were introducing its diabolical alternative.
We’ve been asleep at the wheel for three decades now. Time to wake up.
Lydia says
Technically, they can’t ‘force’ anyone. They can’t force anyone without their consent existentially speaking. Oh sure, I did not say they can’t ‘impose sanctions’ for noncompliance. But they still can’t force anyone. If I were a child, I would say no. I would resist. And that as an adult too.
Just like the saying on the war on drugs: JUST SAY NO!
It really IS that simple. What can they do? Fail you? Expel you? Put you in jail? Feed you to the lions?
Well, if the early Christians were able to endure all these things through the power of God and they resisted anyway, so can we. They cannot ‘force’ anyone to renounce their faith in Jesus. You must consent and comply for that to occur, even though it is under pressure. It is still you who comply. But, sadly, the world is way too full of sissies and pansies and so on to stand up for any values and virtues. It’s all about self survival.
If you are a Christian, you have no choice BUT to resist, you MUST resist. Jesus said so. He said that we must do so:
“…and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.” Matthew 10; 38-39
FYI: For His sake means not denying Him, but rather standing firm in resistance to false religions like islam, and confessing Christ instead, even in the face of death. The early Christians were martyred for not worshiping Caesar. But that is the path He calls us to. Not popular words among ‘fair-weather followers’ and just like in the Bible, many were offended and departed in the hour of temptation. I hope you will not be one of them!
Lydia says
Also, if you don’t resist, then YOU are part of the problem by enabling it!
Think about it.
gravenimage says
Our children are being indoctrinated to believe that Islam is decent and civilized.
They will be even less likely to be able to face down the threat of Islam than the previous generation that learned nothing about Islam in school.
Robert says
Lydia, on one hand, I agree, that no one can force me to do something against my will. On the other hand, I strongly disagree — individuals are forced to do things they don’t like doing, but do anyway.
Jonathan Edwards, a late-blooming Puritan and one of the USA’s greatest religious thinkers, wrote a book on Freedom of the Will, in which he argued (and I’m massively simplifying) that we always do only what we will, never what we don’t will. In which case, those kids twenty years ago who participated in Ramadan at school were certainly following their will. BUT, they were following their will to get along, and be friendly, and obedient to their teacher. They were NOT following their will to submit to a false deity. And THAT is the problem. The fine distinctions are blurred when you live under a coercive regime.
Islam doesn’t care about what you will, since that’s part of the interior life of a human being and Islam doesn’t care about the interior life. Their authoritative writing don’t have anything equivalent to the Book of Psalms (which is the grounds of the inner life of the OT and NT) or Augustine’s Confessions (which is the first biography, and focuses almost entirely on the inner life, and the problem of free will). Muslims only really care about action. So, if a person says they believe in Islam, that’s all the Muslim needs to hear. What motivates a person to make that religious confession is beyond Islam.
But, more to the point, putting young children, who exist before the age of conscience has fully formed within them, into a position where they are told by an authority figure to follow their order is very, very wrong. Children are naturally under authority (their parents, their teachers, their elders, etc); therefore, children have a duty, within reason, to obey those figures. And authorities who care for children, have a greater responsibility to care for those children properly.
Teachers and principals and elected officials who govern the educational system are all authority figures appointed by God’s sovereign providence to lead those kids. And they are neglecting their God-appointed duty and abusing their God-given authority when they dictate that children must observe a religious duty (Ramadan) that contradicts the Word of God.
The children are still innocent. They are doing what they should be doing, when they obey their teacher. It’s the wickedness of the public school system that must be called out.
Phantomfighter27 says
Correct. I had to study the Pillars of Faith. Around 25 years ago in Highschool. This is No Joke. I grew up best friends with a Palestinian immigrant, right from childhood. His family was Christian. But they went along with Muslim Brotherhood Ideology, and my friend even attended “camp” regularly to become programmed to be a jihadi in the ultimate overthrow of Israel and eventually America. The brainwashing has deep roots, and the Leftist “useful idiots” are propagating the False Narrative, AKA: The Big Lie. I have been following this closely my whole life, and now the cancer that was once wiped out in the Last Bastion of Freedom on Earth has returned. And slowly the “Religion of Peace” chokes us to Death, Submission. This is very real. Warn our children, and our children’s children. This is not going away anytime soon. Like Real Cancer, it has only spread and gotten worse. The Patriots of the last “Great Generation” have all but fallen away. I think the next War will be so much worse, on the global-scale, and it will affect all of our lives. So fair warning, pray Our Leaders can fix this soon. Evil Exists, in a very real way in this day and age.

[you are being taught the religion. by making the hajj you will learn how to become a devoted muslim (slave) who is to please the allah god of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) by your pilgrimage]
[this is sanctioned evangelism of the mosque; other religions cannot legally do this. the schoolboard is in the wrong – moral wrong – allowing this religion to be taught]
theAcefromSpace says
Interesting to see Constantinople on their list of “Islamic” cities “ca 1500.” Of course it was a Muslim city then since they had slaughtered the previous Christian population 50 years earlier.

Oh, great. Are they supposed to chronicle molesting women and slaughtering minority-sect Muslims while they are at it? That would make it more authentic.
MFritz says
The first thing the children learn about islam is this:
– As a male you are empowered and always right, you’re always and easily pissed off about ANY criticism towards you and your behaviour, women are considered prey and only the strictest criteria will keep them becoming it, you’re allowed to counter any criticism with utmost violence and everything you do against others is fine as long as it’s for the cause.
– As a female you keep your head down and covered, expect to have at least four children to fulfill your “purpose” in life, always follow your man like you’re his puppy and he’s the master, if somebody – anybody – criticises islam you start screaming and screeching and denying it and calling them “islamophobe” and you will bring up your children the same way no matter how miserable it will be for them.
MFritz says
Winning the jihad by submitting them as soon as possible to islam’s customs and rules? Seems like the master plan is already up and running.
Older Canadian says
Wish this was fake news.
There never will be peace on earth and goodwill (especially to women).
This sure is a very slanted way to teach geography, history, and/or political science.
Is it now a requirement not to have a conscience to become a teacher?

This is not just inaccurate and sloppy work. This is a direct result of Saudi funded programs in many of our universities, to influence how Americans learn about Islam. This is a key part in the Islamization of America.
Stanley Kurtz’s book “Saudi in the Classroom” should be read by every parent.
Matthieu Baudin says
They see it as their moral duty to ‘normalise’ traditional Islam in the everyday lives of everyone and so the indoctrination of youth in the classroom is seen as a ‘no brainer’ step towards this social goal.
I wonder about leftists says
I think that Lydia is right, we have to pick up our cross and follow. And we can pray for a good end.But we have to resist like she says, and so it was written in the Bible.
It is amazing to me how many people have renounced their Christianity, if that went so fast, what was it to begin with? But that is another story.
This plan of Islam must have been thought out for a very long time, and most people have been to busy to make a quick profit and everything always had to be louder and more crazy. People have become totally attached to their games, TV. and apps. They have become individualists, if you sit on a terrace or in buses, trams, trains, etc. Everybody has their apps, whether you like it or not, you have to enjoy other’s private conversations, either you want it or not. In my circle, friendships were broken because of that, and I myself, when people I am sitting with , start to app or twitter for a long time, I leave. There is no good conversation any more. And I know that there is freedom, but you have to know how you handle freedom, most people think that freedom means that you can do anything you want to but that is not the case, I think. Young people go on holidays and drink themselves into a coma etc. I don’t want today this as a preacher, but nowadays it has become worse as Sodom and Gomorrah I heard and I hear a lot from my Higher Self which is God and there will be put an end to that. There will be put an end to the violence of the Islam too, and more I don’t want to say about it, but think about it how crazy we all have become and even when you are not participating, it is all around us,
We have all letting ourselves becoming part of this lawless crazy dangerous world. But that is everybody’s own choice. But stay strong and no matter what happens, stay with Christ. Do not follow the Vatican, so many secrets are hidden there and so many deals made, follow your own intuitivety, you have a Higher Self too, ask Him/Her to help you and give you insights and you will be ok.

Will they have a simulated yearly Mecca stampede whereupon a few thousand pilgrims die according to their god’s “will”?
John Forbes says
Hard to comment as there is SO MUCH of this now in the WEST & SUCH IGNORANCE about ISLAM I the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD who lie all the time !
People like IBRAHIM HOOPER & his FALSE PREMISES ( he is the biggest false premise on the bloody planet) but the alliance with the left will be VERY DIFFICULT to BREAK !
What I am hoping is that one of the FURTHER ADVANCED SHARIA COMPLIANT PLACES- like the UK will have some really NASTY INCIDENTS that wake people up !
Not a good sign in the UK though where MUSLIM CHILD RAPING has been going on & POLICE REFUSE to even INVESTIGATE & all the parents do is CRY about it???
NOT ONE PIECE OF RETALIATION – AMAZING !!! BUT SAD as well – with the realization that no one GIVES a DAM about their OWN RAPED CHILDREN !!!
Louis Schwartz says
John Forbes: Your Words: “What I am hoping is that one of the FURTHER ADVANCED SHARIA COMPLIANT PLACES- like the UK will have some really NASTY INCIDENTS that wake people up !” John, I thought that the Manchester bombing would have been the “really nasty incident” that would set things on the right path. I guess I was sadly mistaken. All those children died for nothing. Then of course, we have the over 1,400 young girls in Rotherham, raped and pimped into “sex slavery”. No one, in any level of government, seems to care about the pain, suffering and life-long trauma inflicted on the girls at the hands of non-humans that should not have even been allowed to enter the country in the first place. Even the parents of the girls seem complicit in their apparent indifference to this despicable crime. There should have been riots in the streets over this extreme type of governmental P.C. malaise that was displayed in response to the abuse of British children. As I said, after these two absolutely horrific attacks, I’m stunned by the lack of intense anger and the powerful urge to obtain justice by any means necessary. I’m just wondering exactly what it will take to motivate our British brothers and sisters to take action against the savages in their midst.

SIck to death of these liberals in this Country. Those with a brain know it all started more openly under the Muslim President Obama.
UNCLE VLADDI says
Terrorism works.
By now, everyone knows islam is nothing more than a terror gang and all muslims are at least potential terrorists.
When confronted by fear, people can respond in two ways:
1.) Honestly – they admit they’re afraid, and so then try to do something about solving the problem; (Conservatives;)
2.) Dishonestly – they pretend to be martyrs, but remain masochists, advising everyone else to Submit, too. (Liberals).
Guess which category most politicians (self-promoting salesmen and liars) fall into?
The solution?
Whenever any organism is attacked, it counter-attacks. (Organisms which submit to diseases like islam, die off).
Cells which have already been successfully co-opted by the disease are also destroyed by the white blood cells.
No problem was ever solved by ignoring it, yet the criminally negligent greed-creed motto of those in charge always seems to be the exact opposite, that: “There’s No Money In Solutions! Whee!” (and its corollary: “It’s not broken, so let’s fix it!”)
The real reason the islamic threat is being ignored in public, is this not-so-nascent “Globalization” movement, which is clearly treason to ALL sovereign national people’s governments. It’s a plutocratic kleptocracy to be run by all those corporazis who never want to pay any taxes to anyone, anywhere, ever; by the global communazi labour guys who want free movement and the same lowest common denominator wages for their 3rd-world slaves, and of course by the moslems who want their one-world islamic ummah, to be run by their theocratic caliphate government. It’s a triple-threat. Against all these evil forces, we have only the Truth … while only they currently control both the fear and the greed.
As long as ONLY the enemy controls both the behavioural Conditioning binaries of the stick (fear of personally having one’s own family firebombed or beheaded by the Jihad) and the carrot (greed for oil-money bribes), those sales-puppets we laughingly call “our leaders” and their complicit media presstitute pets will insist on maintaining their preposterously backwards, victim-blaming “narrative” that only we are to blame for the Qur’an’s 1,400 years of hate, so that we should all “Submit and learn how to be better victims!”
As long as we remain the lesser threat to them, “our leaders” will continue to ignore islam.
Islam can be easily studied and known in its entirety, by anyone. It will never change!
So, when Western people won’t educate them *selves* about islam because our culture defers all thinking to those “authorities” we PAY to do our thinking and research for us, while they secretly know full-well that the salesmen in charge will always sell us all out, they ARE CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENT INFANTILE DELINQUENT TRAITORS TO RATIONALITY AND CIVILIZATION!
It should never be allowed by backwards people to be considered “illegal” to accuse these criminals (muslims) of their crimes, allegedly because the painful truth might offend them or hurt their feelings, and so “make” them commit even more crimes!
No problem was ever solved by ignoring it, and nobody is doing even these muslims any favours, by indulging their historic lies that islam is a “religion” (at all, much less one “of peace”) or a “race” (much less one of poor oppressed “People Of Colour”)!
Pretending there is NOT a Muslim problem but only a white racist problem accepting diversity, is criminally negligent TREASON.
Keeping the muzzie masses ignorant of their own hate-crime death-threat canon seems to be the self-imposed mission of most of the enemedia, government and of course their corporazi owners these days – it’s most likely why they keep lying about islam being a “great religion of peace” all the time! That, and their inherent racism, of course!
We wouldn’t want any of these poor oppressed mentally-inferior swarthy holy-mobster criminals to suffer any “blowback” retaliation (i.e: JUSTICE) for their crimes, now, would we?
😉
To advocate for suicidal masochism as the highest moral virtue, while also claiming the only real crime is to hurt the feelings of and offend criminals by accusing them of their crimes, outs any and all progressive liberal apologists for islam as massively treasonous criminals themselves!
Since islam is nothing more or less than the world’s oldest and largest ongoing extortion-racket CRIME syndicate, where the only “religious” part in it is where its holy mobster crime-gang members slander “god” as their #1 alibi to excuse their own criminal desires and actions where they claim:
“God told us to commit these crimes!”
(CAPISCE?)!
… it’s obvious that our Western governments, with our legally-mandated respect for universal equality of individual, not group or gang, human rights, do indeed have both the right and the responsibility to ban islam from our shores.
…….
Even if muslims “win” they will only “win” a life of harsh depravity for their descendants.
After all, who is most likely to be “married” to, and raped by, pedophiles? Muslim kids!
(Which will be OUR kids, too, if we let the “elite” enslave us)!
