North Carolina Common Core English Lesson Proselytizes Islam

Andy Taylor wept:

Parents in Farmville, North Carolina want to know why their children were given a Common Core vocabulary assignment in an English class that promoted the Prophet Muhammad and the Islamic faith.

“It really caught me off guard,” a Farmville Central High School student who was in the class told me. “If we are not allowed to talk about any other religions in school – how is this appropriate?”

The Islamic vocabulary worksheet was assigned to seniors.

“I was reading it and it caught me off guard,” the student told me. “I just looked at it and knew something was not right – so I emailed the pages to my mom.”

At least we know some Farmville students are still being raised properly and to think for themselves.

Then again, maybe it’s because the Islamic proselytizing is so pile-driver blatant:

“In the following exercises, you will have the opportunity to expand your vocabulary by reading about Muhammad and the Islamic word,” the worksheet read.

The lesson used words like astute, conducive, erratic, mosque, pastoral, and zenith in sentences about the Islamic faith.

“The zenith of any Muslim’s life is a trip to Mecca,” one sentence read. For “erratic,” the lesson included this statement: “The responses to Muhammad’s teachings were at first erratic. Some people responded favorably, while other resisted his claim that ‘there is no God but Allah and Muhammad his Prophet.”

Another section required students to complete a sentence:

“There are such vast numbers of people who are anxious to spread the Muslim faith that it would be impossible to give a(n)___ amount.”

The Farmville School District, not-so-shockingly, defended this Muslim propaganda:

A spokesman for Pitt County Schools defended the lesson  – noting that it came from a state-adopted supplemental workbook and met the “Common Core standards for English Language Arts.”

“The course is designed to accompany the world literature text, which emphasizes culture in literature,” the statement read. [emphasis added]

That’s the dhimmis’ CCCP fig leaf.  Christianity is “religion” and thus verboten, but Islam is “culture” and thus a legitimate part of “social studies”.

If the Farmville Schools insist on injecting Islam into its curriculum, they should do so not as “social studies,” but as fictional literature, seeing as how they left out the part about the “prophet” Mohammed being a racist, rapist, murderer, drug addict, and pedofile.

Exit question: When they get to the chapter on constructing suicide bomb jackets, will that be taught in shop class?
