Holocaust Dropped From Some UK Schools

dteichman2 writes "It appears that some UK schools are ignoring the Holocaust. A government-backed study, funded by the Department for Education and Skills, found that some teachers are reluctant to teach history lessons on the Holocaust for fear of offending Muslim students whose beliefs include Holocaust denial. Additionally, similar problems are being encountered with lessons on the Crusades because these lessons contradict teachings from local mosques."

If there were no schools in the UK, Roger Waters would have written every song about his mother.

If next month Christian suicide bombers in ten separate incidents killed a lot of non-Christians, I can 100% guarantee you Jerry Falwell would be denouncing them.

Well I can 100% guarantee that it won't be Jerry Falwell.

I bet you one million dollars he would not.

Islam vs. Western Civilization

[ProteusQ]

Imam: And before we detonate the explosives that we carry on our bodies and destroy all of Western Civilization, I ask you: what have they ever offered us?

Ahmed: Hot and cold running water?

Imam: What?

Ahmed: I said, 'Hot and cold running water'.

Imam: Oh yeah, yeah there is that.

Suicide Bomber: And sanitation!

Ibrahim: Oh yes... sanitation, Blessed Imam, you remember how their cities smell compared to this old dump.

Imam: All right, I'll grant you that running water and the sanitation are two things that Western Civilization could offer...

Sadiq: And the roads...

Imam: (sharply) Well yes obviously the roads... the roads go without saying. But apart from the running water, the sanitation and the roads...

Another Suicide Bomber: Irrigation...

Other Suicide Bombers: Medicine... Education... Health...

Imam: Yes... all right...

Suicide Bomber Near Front: And the booze...

Ahkbar: Oh yes! Good one!

Abdul: Yeah. That's something we'd really miss if we destroy Western Civilization, O Blessed Imam.

Suicide Bomber at Back: Don't forget soap!

Ibrahim: And it would be safe to walk in the streets at night.

Abdul: Yes, they certainly want law and order... (general nodding)... let's face it, they're the only ones who do in a world like this. (more general murmurs of agreement)

Imam: All right... all right... but apart from booze, hot and cold running water, sanitation and medicine, education, irrigation, roads, soap and the rule of law... what has the Western Civilization to offer us?

Ahmed: What about peace?

Imam: Oh, peace!... shut up!

I still think there should be a Godwin's Law counterpart for invoking the name of Fox News.

I call it K`Lyre's Law.

Re:Are you aware of the situation in Israel?

[Mattintosh]

There was always a distinction between Jews and proselytes. That much is recorded in the Bible.

The funny thing is, the Bible says that "born" Jews won't necessarily get to occupy the holy land, only "chosen" "Jews" will. And that Jehovah God does the choosing. And he chooses those who want to follow him, "born" or "made" is an inconsequential difference. Heck, "Jew" or "non-Jew" is an inconsequential difference. Only obedience to God matters.

Funnier still is when you tell a Jew that and he flinches at the mere mention of God's name. Like he's going to strike them down for hearing someone else use that name as a legitimate reference to him. Better yet is when you explain to them what his name means and why it means that. "Jehovah" is the anglicized spelling and pronunciation for YHWH, which comes from the words "ye hawah", which translates rougly to "He causes to become." Not only is he the creator, he has a will, and he can make it happen. He will create or cause whatever is needed to ensure that his will becomes reality. Truly almighty.

I just love to freak out a Jew with that info... they go into all sorts of doublespeak to get you to stop speaking so they don't get struck down. Hilarious. And I've never once seen anyone struck down...
