    They're already changing because they can't survive economically with their ignorant society. All this radical crap in their societies is the struggle of the anti-change types to hold on.

    Lmao, I love this place. Birthrates in the Middle East are anywhere from just over 1 to just over 4 children per couple. As is the case with all cultures the better the standard of living is the lower the birthrate. Nowhere near "5 to 10 kids".

    Your spelling indicates you have a lot of trouble with English. Might want to tackle that before you head off to Arabic lessons.

    It can be taught without going into the religions, but only in the most superficial of ways. It's hard to separate the religion from the culture, and pretty much impossible to separate the culture from history.

    Imagine teaching about the era of the Crusades without going into the influence of religion.

    They aren't being taught Islam. They are being taught about Islam. I'm pretty sure most geography classes cover world religion. The sky is not falling.

    So long as the teacher knows the difference between teaching and indoctrinating.
    Also fine in history class.
    My education in the UK included compulsory religious morning assembly with sermons and prayers which have no place in an educational institution.

    Likely the ashamed author is suggesting it's not taught in schools. Too ashamed to even put a name to the article.

    not in a mandatory class, would only allow in elective classes

    "My education in the UK included compulsory religious morning assembly with sermons and prayers which have no place in an educational institution."

    totally agree, ones church has failed them if they feel they need the pubic school system to teach their children religion

    sure, one can talk about religion in a non-religious way, like talking about Hitler's Christian upbringing and his hatred of Jews cause they killed Jesus in his and many of his supporters eyes.... but this may upset people.. both Jews and Christians

    how about the sex abuse scandal in the church, how young would that be taught to children if public schools history class...

    most people prefer to keep religion out of our schools for the most part as most Christians get upset about this type of history and they are the majority

    Everyone should listen to this video that Daniel Greenfield has featured on FrontPage Magazine.
    In the video below, Sharifa Alkhateeb talks about using U.S. public schools to convert America to islam. Her talk is an example of when Muslims aren’t shy about stating the nature of the threat:”

    You are sharing a 29 year old video? Wow. Thank you.
    The lady in the video died in 2004.

    Well, the OP is a letter from a supposed retired school teacher too ashamed of what he/she wrote, he/she could not sign the letter.

    I would like to see Islam taught as an option.
    However I would like to see it taught right out of the Sunnah and the adventures of Muhammed.

    absolutely,
    And they should also learn about the teachings and deeds of Muhammed.
    There is a lot to learn, before they even get into the Qur'an.

    And you can enjoy that freedom in a country influenced by Christianity but you can't in a country influenced by Islam. That's a big difference.

    Criticize Islam and you'll be called a bigot. We've already seen that on this thread.
