I would not mind it if it was in a religious studies course.

It seems odd to me ,that in the name of science(education) that any religion would be a issue, since all that non-sense is unobservable and therefor a poor choice for any discussion concerning geography.

They should stop waisting time and money in any religion. There is too much to do to clean the planet.

You reminded me when I had to study Philosophy while it should not be against Islam. And I had to write whatever goes with what Islam ask for.. it was hard to say something against Islam in an Islamic country especially in Philosophy the person might sound an Atheist trying to talk about the existance and how to prove that we exist. At the end i had to say verses in Quran to prove our existance and I passed.

I would have to know more than the article presents but "basic information about Islam" is not indoctrination. This was a World History and Geography class and the area mentioned was mostly Islamic. Christians and others would have had to of bitched to brig this lawsuit on in the first place.

IMO, ANYTHING to do with religion does NOT belong nor have a place in education in Public Schools.
IF you want your child to receive religious instruction ( indoctrination) then pay for them to attend a school with a religious base instead and leave Public School Education to those who actually want to learn about REALTY, Logic, Reasoning and having Good and Decent Morals.

The hypocrites will try to find another way to stop whatever they don't like.

Reminiscent of "Mr. T" who used to be on South Park. He could joke about every other religion but not his!

The Christian Right would probably be upset about this. One of the few things I agree with them on. The hypocrisy would elude them.

The christian cult thinks the Establishment Clause was to establish christianity in 'merca.
