California Screaming

From the nuts and fruitcake state:

Teaching Johnny About Islam

In our brave new schools, Johnny can't say the pledge, but he can recite the Quran. Yup, the same court that found the phrase "under God" unconstitutional now endorses Islamic catechism in public school.

In a recent federal decision that got surprisingly little press, even from conservative talk radio, California's 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled it's OK to put public-school kids through Muslim role-playing exercises, including:

Reciting aloud Muslim prayers that begin with "In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful . . . ."

Memorizing the Muslim profession of faith: "Allah is the only true God and Muhammad is his messenger."

Chanting "Praise be to Allah" in response to teacher prompts.

Professing as "true" the Muslim belief that "The Holy Quran is God's word."

In California: “One nation under God”, is too offensive. A cross at a war memorial is too offensive. Letting parents decide when and what to teach their kids about alternative lifestyles is to offensive. Kids hearing that evolution and intelligent design are both theories, is too offensive. Not letting gay men go on camp outs with boy scouts is too offensive. Insisting that Mexicans should come here legally, obey our laws and speak English is racist.

WTF! Are California courts a inter dimensional portal vortex into the Twilight Zone?

That question is rhetorical, its either that or the 9^th level of hell.
