Pledge of Allegiance Banned To Not Offend Muslims

By Duane Lester • Jun 17th, 2008 • 443 Views

A government school principal has banned the Pledge of Allegiance in his school. Not because he objected to the term “Under God,” but he was afraid the Pledge would offend Muslims. Because, apparently, there is no God in Islam:

At least one Muslim community leader says he feels the same way. Muhammad Najieb says that ‘God’ is central to the Muslim faith, and there are several references to him in every prayer.

Islam is a monotheistic religion, just like Christianity. This multi-culti nit wit has not only offended Muslims with his ignorance, but has actually “caused hurt feelings, and may foster bitterness and division within the community.”

Which goes back to Jim Quinn’s First Law: Liberalism always generates the exact opposite of its stated intent.

Each morning, my kids start their schoolday with the Pledge. There is no government knucklehead there to tell me they can’t say it because it might offend some protected class or group. Yet another benefit of homeschooling.
