An outer suburb of Atlanta, Georgia is the latest locale in America where some parents are expressing alarm because their middle school-aged children are required to learn about Islam, while ignoring Christianity, the Daily Caller website reports today (September 28, 2015).
Ryan Breece, a Christian father of three who has a sixth-grade daughter at Youth Middle School in Loganville, Georgia, told a local Fox TV channel that his daughter recently came home with a social studies assignment all about the core teachings of Islam.
"We are seeing one page, five statements of Christian faith and we see five or 10 pages of Islamic faith," the mad dad told WAGA-TV. So we have no accountability to make sure that it's equal."
According to Breece, he was so alarmed about what his sixth-grade daughter was -- and was not -- learning that he scheduled a meeting with the principal at Youth Middle School (David Todd). As a result of the meeting, Breece and the principal arranged for his daughter to opt out of the coursework on Islam.
