Some questions arise ...

- do students get similar assignments for studying Christianity or the Jewish faith?

- is the Father's reaction admirable or the opposite?

(I'm sure some will automatically discount the story due to the source but I haven't seen it mentioned elsewhere )

If the principal said they were studying world history, I would like to tsee the calendar of subjects for the year.

Given the rise in recent years to be against anything with GOD in it on the basis of not catering to religion....then I too would challenge the assignment until I was convinced it was literally part of a world history assignment. Then I would want to understand the context. And it better include the other religions of the day including Christianity and the works of GOD.

If not, then I would support my daughter in refusal to participate. And I would also make a case to the school board just like those who do so against Christianity on public property.

I give the benefit of the doubt to the soldier and his daughter long before a school adminstrator.
