It’s now OK to focus on religious instruction in public schools

Last spring in MA, middle school students were taken to a mosque for a field trip. During that field trip, the students were told that Allah is the one true God.

And by the end, some of the boys joined in the mid-day prayers with the Muslim men.

Is Islam problematic? Maybe not. But is there a balanced presentation provided of Christianity? Of Buddhism? Of Judaism? Of Hinduism?

Is it possible that there is a concerted effort to promote Islam? Should there be a discussion about whether this is a good idea or not?

Again, KNOW exactly what your children are being exposed to. You may agree with it or not, but you MUST know. And you can’t always rely on your child being an accurate reporter on the circumstances – they may not know how to evaluate the information they were presented with in any other way than the way they are TOLD to evaluate it….
