YEAR IN REVIEW: Schools Now Pushing Soft Porn for Tweens, Islam for All Kids



Editor's Note: 2015 was a big year in the church—and in the world. This week we're looking at some of the biggest stories of the year, selected based on feedback from our readers. Thanks for reading Charisma News this year and stay tuned as we continue expanding our coverage in 2016 to include more spiritual insights on the stories that matter most to you.

This article was published September 11th.
This new school year under expansive Common Core curriculum and standards testing, children will have data collected by the government about behavioral and mental aptitude, not their test scores. No matter what a governor or state school board might claim, if the state receives federal money in any form, it is participating in data collection without parental consent. Parents have the constitutional right to opt out their child by filling out this form.
And the Exodus Mandate is encouraging and providing resources for Christian parents to do more than opt out, but to exit the public school system altogether. Two excellent videos explain why.
When it comes to "sex education," minors are taught the benefits of nontraditional sex, beginning in the fifth grade, to the normalcy of their own "sexual fluidity" in the seventh grade and higher. Additionally, the U.S. Dept. of Education no longer defines parents as mothers or fathers, but as Parent 1, Parent 2 on student aid forms.
In New York City, teens via a tax funded smartphone app can locate free condoms within walking and free clinics where they can receive prescriptions and medication, and abortions and IUD implants—without parental consent. The Plan B pill is also distributed at public schools, again without parental knowledge.
Parents are protesting school board policies that require their heterosexual children to share a bathroom or locker room to accommodate another child's experimentation with "gender fluidity." 
Incredibly disturbing, is a book on the fourth-grade reading list, It's Perfectly Normal, which illustrates in words and pictures soft-porn to 10-year-olds. Parents are not told which books are on the reading list and are not given an option to reject or pull their child out prior to being taught such perversion. 
When it comes to parental rights, educators have expressed: children don't belong to their parents. In response, parents are now legally fighting the government over school choice, data collection and curriculum.
Most problematic about Common Core curriculum is its emphasis on teaching Islam, or rather a false version of it.
Yet—no Bible or prayer is allowed—but learning to pray in the direction of Mecca is. Children can't say or write the name of Jesus or talk about God, but they are taught the five pillars of Islam in addition to over 120 pages on Islam in the seventh grade alone. Parents have provided numerous examples, from vocabulary tests, to textbook language and pictures, to actual testimony of children feeling uncomfortable having to attend a school trip to a mosque and to kneeling and praying to something they reject. Once parents object and try to opt out, they are told their child would receive a failing grade and they as parents would not be allowed to enter their child's public school at a particular time.
Most important, Islam is not being taught within the context of world religions, but within the context of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) indoctrination. The Constitution isn't taught. The Bible isn't taught. But Muhammad is taught as an astute businessman—and that all Christians, Jews, and Muslims believe in the same God, they just call God by a different name.
What's essential for every parent and citizen to understand is that teaching Islam violates the First and 14th Amendments. The Common Core curriculum tests were created by Pearson Education, which has offices the in Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and funded by the Bill Gates Foundation as part of a global effort to indoctrinate children.
The question remains: Why does American education seem like it's being directed by largely Sunni Islamists and communist/marxist/fascists? And why are Americans putting up with it?
