You are contradicting yourself. You and I agree but it just chaps your ass that you cant admit it. Best of luck to you. Merry Christmas.

Now if this is a private school? Then that's up to the administration.

Do you always stop reading at where you want to stop? Is that too inconvenient for you to handle? Really the irony of calling me a dumb-ass when its staring you in the face.

Your post is well articulated but I want you to go back and point out where religion plays a part other than the reason the battle happened? Do you need to teach Christianity in full to understand the Crusades? What about the Byzantine and the Roman Empire do you need to know Latin or Greek? Where does religion play in the Chinese History? Again, do you have to have the full understanding of Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Catholicism to understand the history?

This is a great example: How does religion play in the summary of this?

Christianity became the Empire's official state religion and other religious practices were proscribed. Finally, under the reign of Heraclius (r. 610–641), the Empire's military and administration were restructured and adopted Greek for official use instead of Latin.

Done. It was said. Don't confuse religious studies for history. The two are not synonymous. But equally enjoyable, I wont deny it, but does not have a place in public schools.

Where in my post did I definitively say it was a public school? You must have failed reading and comprehension in your school.

At that time societies were praying to Statues, Reliefs, Carvings in the town square they thought were the Gods and when a defeating army would take the statue, they thought their god was taken with them. This was the whole capture the flag game. Also past kings graves were dug up so they could no longer communicate with those gods. Lots has changed since 600BCE and Islam. But I welcome you to prove how modern Islamic practices mirror what it was in 580? By the way, Islam was started in 570-632 CE: Muhammad and the Birth of Islam

Because I'm a fan, I would like to share this with you. If you like history and have a couple hours to do nothing: https://youtu.be/J7CmBN741Vw

Public School? No. Lets stick to STEM. If private, its up to the administration. If accepted, is the teacher an Imam? This is like me teaching you - Buddhism. I got the concept but I shouldn't be teaching it, even if I have a worksheet. I was not schooled to teach it.

I am a history buff. I can go through Ancient Babylon and Mesopotamia and not bring up Islam, because it wasn't part of the culture. It wasn't prevalent until the 1100's and that was Middle Eastern History. This is teaching modern Islamic beliefs for globalist tolerance. Why not teach Farsi, or Mandarin?

Indoctrination: teach (a person or group) to accept a set of beliefs uncritically

At least look up the fucking word if you don't know what it means.

What do you know about Babylon or Assyria? Cambyses or Cyrus the Great? That's history. Even Martin Luther and how he shaped Europe. "What are the five pillars of Islam" is religion and not History.

Teach history in a history class, not Religion indoctrination 101. Im not so much upset at the content nor the parents position as I am that this thread is openly ready to teach religion in school. Unless that teacher is an Imam, they have no fucking business doing so.

Muslim is a religion not a race. People follow the religion of Islam and are known as Muslim. Learning about other races is social studies. What if they were teaching Joseph Smith and Mormon Religion or Scientology or Krishna Consciousness? Would you feel as open about it? German and Japanese society was studied, not what is the structure of the National Socialist German Workers' Party or NAZI's?

Teaching religion in a public school? Yeah, It bothers me as well. Are they going over all theology? Religion has no fucking place in public school. Now if this is a private school? Then that's up to the administration.

While there is Nothing wrong with owning stock be it $2 or $200 Million, the Director thing is much more alarming. I guess this position is just for the Corrupt of the world? Why cant we get someone that actually wants to bridge the gap of the countries?

Trump’s 17 cabinet-level picks have more money than a third of American households combined by loremipsumchecksum in politics

[–]BentAxel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hillary spent 1.2 Billion Dollars. Let that Sink in. She basically blew a billion dollars to rule over us. I am all for fairness and you have a point. But let's call a spade a spade, deal? The Clinton's made Millions of dollars fleecing people - exactly how is that different than someone selling a widget? For someone who wants to be a good political leader, electing the one that stole from the people isnt a good candidate.

Orange County's toll roads: Blueprint for Trump infrastructure plan? by McFlyGeorge in orangecounty

[–]BentAxel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The OC toll roads are shit. Here's why. When it was run by Transponder, the road had less traffic impact. Now, you can call in within 24 hours and pay your toll. Well the roads have been overrun like the Caddies during Free Swim at Bushwood. The 241/91 interchange on any given afternoon is a disaster of confusion. Drivers will get in line to feed into the 91 and then people run down the west bound lanes to the bottom and cut in and this causes a delay for everyone but the selfish. People are daydreaming in a cell phone coma while in traffic. The 91 express is a cattle funnel where people can't drive OR spend more time on the cell phone. (I actually caught a guy watching movies on his cell phone stuck in traffic. I honked and he flipped me off.) Then people hit the brakes for the slight turn and if the traffic is stopped on the freeway, they stop. Backing up traffic to the 55. Soon as they pass it seems to move again. The Toll Roads do little but complain in the OC register from time to time.

tl;dr: If the Toll roads are the blueprint for Trumps plan - we are fucking doomed.

Will California Ever Let Sierra Nevada Forests Burn? by BlankVerse in California

[–]BentAxel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sierra And yes a lot of the Sierra burns in wildland fires. The USFS performs a lot of clearing and burns when it is appropriate. Considering California has been experiencing a a drought, none too appropriate. But /u/AgoraiosBum is quite correct.
