I don't want my children learning anything about Islam in school. They already know it's a false religion and to stay away from it.

Shit like this makes me wish I had a kid so I could say, "I don't want my children learning anything about Christianity in school. They already know it's a false religion and to stay away from it." Just to see the fundies flip out of course.
you know how on 7/7 a bunch of british muslims blew up the london underground? That's because after fencing themselves off from the rest of the country, only reading islamic media, only talking to other muslims, and refusing to learn about any other culture, they'd managed to shut themselves off from any other opposing viewpoint from friends outside of that community that might offer some common sense as to why they shouldn't blow shit up.
You're doing the same thing.
Ooh, watch out, the evil false religion wants to hurt your kiddies. Get the CIA, the FBI, and the President!
Resistance against something gives it power, you know. By demonstrating an attitude of fear towards Islam, you are telling your kids that it might not be as false as you say it is. To fear something is to assume the actual presence of something to fear.
Your post is a bit wordy. Let's cut to the heart of what you mean:
"I don't want my children learning anything."
Ah yes, much more succinct and accurate.
I don't want my children learning anything about Islam in school.
Tough shit. You get to raise them, not edit reality for them.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
