No one has said it is okay. Do you see the left supporting this assignment? The motivation is most likely for students to look at Islam from the perspective of a Muslim, thus hoping to create a more enlightened and knowledgeable environment. Too many Americans have very skewed ideas about Islam.
But this was not an appropriate assignment. The most appropriate thing would be for this to be studied in a social studies class that studies world religions from a fact based perspective and let the students decide what they think. However, at the high school/middle school level, there isn't enough time for a curriculum that includes such specific courses; they are more likely to have such courses at the college level. High school has world history, American history, history of Western civilization, European history. That's about it.[/QUOTE]
I agree that this is an inappropriate assignment however when I went to school we had World Religions in 6th grade. We learned abut the different religions but would never had an assignment like this That assignment is typical lefty loon bullshit. It teaches nothing to anyone.
