You usually post well researched opinions and I was getting ready to reply to your first informative post in this thread when I saw your reply to Rags … over to plan B.
“Christianic”? Now, that’s a tad provocative but that’s the idea I imagine. However, if you are truly more worried about Christianity’s influence viz a vis Islam that I have to conclude you just don’t see what’s out there …i.e., in terms of the planet we currently all live on. I would argue that Islam is *obviously* a more aggressive religion / world view in contemporary times than anything Christianity or Judaism presents today. Do you agree with that? ( I also get tired of people always bashing Israel but that’s another thread, and not to say that you believe that btw)
I think the most powerful force in human history has proven to be religious faith (be it for good or bad, the point is it’s powerful). Islam has never lost its (misguided) faith, hence they still strongly wish to propagate their faith in various way, including demographics. People are thus skeptical that what was presented in the Maryland classroom was truly “neutral” -- not that it was presented to help students learn. You do great research … if you can provide more sources that show Christianity and Judaism are truly presented in an equivalent manner in Maryland that would be helpful in terms of what this thread relates to.
The USMC Dad was wrong to approach it the way he did no doubt. But, I can understand how he may have felt at the emotional level especially since he was in a combat zone while most of us, for example, get to live comfortably here in the TV bubble and don’t have to deal with those realities for now. However, his concern is that his kid was being propagandized vs educated. I realize the standard response is to tag people who opine in this manner as anti-education yahoos etc, but it’s pretty clear that Islam is now a PC protected topic.
In a related manner to this thread, here’s a video that provides a glimpse into the multicultural paradise that now exists in parts of the UK. Tell us what you honestly think about it. I don’t think anyone on this board wants to see this type of future one day for our kids and grandkids, including you.
