Constitution. Secular, non aparthaid, non lies and distortions paid for by tax dollars to the children. It is CRIMINAL TO LIE IN EDUCATION. It's TREASON and abuse of power. Theocracy is not democracy, also criminal, and treasonous.
Any questions?edit on 29-10-2012 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)
pg 126
Women are superior to men in certain respects: it is they who are asked in marriage, desired, loved and courted.
...and they that inspire self-sacrifice and require protection
...An indication of the high esteem in which women are held is that if a man is asked to swear by God ---there is none greater---and take a solemn oath to go to the House of God, or distribute his possessions as alms, or emancipate his slaves, all that comes easily to him...
...But let him be asked to swear to put away [to give up] his wife, he grows pale, is overcome with rage, protests, expostulates, gets angry and refuses.....All this is the result of the place God has given wives in their husbands hearts...
God created a child out of a woman without the help of any man, but he has never created a child out of a man without a woman. Thus it is specially to woman and not to man that HE gave this wonderful sign, this signal token, when He created the Messiah in Mary's bosom, without a man.

All of this can be found in the big yellow box to the side iwth a huge red sticker that says Primary Source!, so it really stands out.

Nothing wrong with learning this.
Don't make a fool of yourself and your child.
If they are merely talking about "The Status of Women within Islam," I fail to see a problem. They are presenting a fact here, not proselytizing.

The context is, on page 126, in a big grey box called: The status of Women, that takes up 4/5's of the page, there are two smaller yellow/gold boxes, with big red stamps on the top right corner, so they stand out as relevant, and there is everything I just quoted in the posts above)
And God isn't a topic that even gets covered in social studies. Just for your info, not to mention, this other thing, the misogyny.edit on 29-10-2012 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)

I'm going to keep asking until you either provide the law you claim they are violating, or until you admit that you can't. Accusing someone of criminal action is a serious accusation.
So, can you cite the national, provincial, or local law they are violating?

If for no other reason, Koros is actually doing you a favor here, as guaranteed this question is going to come up at the meeting you plan on having.

This is not appropriate in our school system, nor any use of God, or (may God be pleased with them). Its not teaching tolerance, its making them apathetic to crimes. We have a constitution that protects every Canadian citizen from inequality and abuse. They don't need this very inappropriate change in educational material. We are not to promote any tolerance on inequality and key issues of democracy, women and minorities rights, or even as Canada has its constitution which speaks of instrinsic equality, equalizing conditions between people.edit on 29-10-2012 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)

...However, Islam was to spread so quickly, and over such a large area, that it would eventually lose some of its Arab character. Islam is still the principal religion of the Middle East, North Africa, much of Central Africa, and many countries in Asia. There are millions of muslims in China and Russia, for example. It is also the second fastest growing religion in North america....
In this chapter you will focus on the Arab world, which is the birthplace of Islam. You will also learn about the foundations of the Islamic faith and the religious duties of Muslims around the world
p.108
Christianity and Judaism were born in the middle east. The cultures of many lands, including Canada, have deep connections to the cultures of that region. English and French literature, for example, contain many references to the Bible, whih originated in the middle east. ....At a personal level, there are many links. Many Canadians who do not have a direct connection with teh Middle East, have names that originated there. Mary, Rebecca, Ruth, Joshua, Michael, and David are just a few.
