We're homeschoolers too, so one of the joys for us as it is for you, I'm sure, is that we get to design our curriculum to accord with our own values :)David BC Tanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16102898507435707042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687269.post-71053434744903967012007-05-14T20:08:00.000+08:002007-05-14T20:08:00.000+08:00Interesting reading :) I am a baptised catholic an...Interesting reading :) I am a baptised catholic and grew up as and aussie catholic .<BR/>Before Islam became a known religion in this country of mine , catholics were the ones least accepted and it still exists in some areas today . <BR/><BR/>I believe the biggest problem is because people are ignorant of others beliefs and don't take time out to gain knowledge , before they riddicule .<BR/><BR/>I myself own a Holy Koran and read it often , as it should be .<BR/><BR/>There are mant similarities between the both faiths . I will link wikipedia , to make this comment shorter .http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarities_between_the_Bible_and_the_Qur'an<BR/><BR/>Ignorance is a big issue . When i submitted my home education program to the education department for home schooling of my youngest child, i informed to inspector that i intened to teach my son about Islam , he was shocked and said that this would never be allowed in the schools . <BR/>Indeed he is ignorant , it might not be allowed in the public education system but in the catholic education system it exists. <BR/>Why because we are taught that we are all gods children and all brothers and sisters because we have faith in the same God .sweetspiritshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11159438119945316946noreply@blogger.com
