Parents slam pro-Islam slant in Florida school textbook - Washington Times

Hundreds of parents, angry at what they say is a biased student textbook with a decided pro-Islam slant, have launched a campaign demanding equal religious representation and planned a protest at the school board meeting this week.

The book, “World History,” devotes fully 32 pages — an entire chapter — on “Muslim Civilizations,” including descriptions of the Koran and a listing of the Five Pillars of Islam, The Daily Caller reported. But noticeably missing is information on any other religion.

Protesters are demanding that students tear out the Islam chapter until the school, in Volusia County, provide a like number of pages on other religions, the local WFTV reported.

“The problem is there needs to be balance,” said District 2 Deltona commissioner Webster Barnaby, in The Daily Caller. “In America today, Christianity is being relegated to the trash heap. Why relegate Christianity to a footnote in an entire history book, and you give an entire chapter on the teachings of Islam? To suggest that everybody knows about Christianity, that is total ignorance.”

Bill Would Force Employers to Accommodate ‘Gender Transitioning’ in the Workplace | TheBlaze.com

 

Section 8 of the bill discusses “‘gender transition” and prevents employers from fully enforcing “reasonable dress or grooming standards.”

Instead, an employer who is told by an employee that they are “undergoing gender transition” must allow that individual to dress as the gender “to which the employee has transitioned or is transitioning.”

The Hill notes that the bill does not define “gender transition.”

In midst of Syrian war, giant Jesus statue arises

 Jesus stands, arms outstretched, on the Cherubim mountain, overlooking a route pilgrims took from Constantinople to Jerusalem in ancient times. The statue is 12.3 meters (40 feet) tall and stands on a base that brings its height to 32 meters (105 feet), organizers of the project estimate.

The project, called "I Have Come to Save the World," is run by the London-based St. Paul and St. George Foundation

Q&A: Implications of the coming of biometric wave

 
Biometric sensors are just arriving on the tech scene. The early adopters have begun using Apple's Touch ID sensor to lock and unlock their iOS devices, and to buy iTunes.

And if the FIDO Alliance gets any traction in its efforts to promote a new technical standard for device-centric authentication, the use of a variety of biometric sensors could begin to go mainstream.
Led by PayPal, Lenovo, Google and MasterCard, the FIDO Alliance is a global initiative to establish common rules of the road that ultimately would enable any biometric sensor to unlock any online account, without sharing the biometric.

FIDO rules equip fingerprint, iris, voice and facial recognition sensors, as well as security tokens, smart cards and Near Field Communication (NFC) systems, to privately unlock banking, shopping and corporate online services that adhere to the same set of rules.

“It’s time…to conquer sin in your life”, ZRN 10.24.13

I want to address those of you who have been believers for some time, in other words, you aren’t in the first year or so of your salvation.  People play with the sin in their lives thinking that it doesn’t matter that much.  Well, I want to tell you that as the evil increases in this world, you had better start conquering those ‘easily besetting sins’.  Jesus didn’t die on the Cross to make the new creation available to us so that we could go on ‘sinning in the flesh’.  I remember Kenneth Hagin Sr. made a remark that he went for weeks not knowing that he had a body!  That should be our goal: to walk so conscious of the Spirit that we aren’t even aware of the voice of the world, the flesh and the devil.  IT IS ACHIEVABLE!

Those of you who visit this blog from various places in the world, I want to give you more than just prophetic news.  I want to give you the Good News that Jesus saves, heals and delivers.  If you aren't familiar with the healing ministry of John G. Lake,  (passed away in 1935), who was one of the founding members of the Divine Healing, Baptism of the Holy Spirit movement of the early 1900's, do a Google search on him and read some of his sermons.  You don't get food like this many places today:

 

John G. Lake, Triune Salvation sermon: "For 15 years God has let me move among all manner of contagious diseases, and I have never taken one of them. The devil could not make me take them. I have prayed with smallpox patients when the pustules would burst under the touch of my hands. I have gone home to my wife and babies and never carried contagion to them. I was in the 'secret place of the Most High." Indeed contact with diphtheria, smallpos, leprosy, and even bubonic plague, and the whole range of diseases was in line of my daily work in connection with the work of the Apostolic Church of South Africa.
"Behold, I give you power....over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall be any means hurt you", (Luke 10:19). So the prayer of the apostle comes to us with a fresh understanding: "I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body bre preserved blameless (without corruption, defilement) unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it", (1 Thess. 5:23-24).

Jewish Publications Publish Muslim Writer's Whitewash of Islamic Antisemitism - Atlas Shrugs

(Previous posting on Atlas Shrugs about the writer of the article regarding Jewish Temple being rebuilt, one of these days her choice will come because there is no such thing as 'moderate Islam', but she is a tool right now in promoting the conditions that will fulfill Biblical Prophecy)

Sinem Tezyapar was so proud of this article that she sent it to me directly. I read it with great interest, as we're constantly told by Muslim and non-Muslim spokesmen in the U.S. that when jihadis justify their violence by referring to the Qur'an and Sunnah that they are misinterpreting and misunderstanding those sources, and that they really teach peace and tolerance. But rare indeed is a detailed explanation of exactly how the Qur'an and Sunnah teach peace and tolerance. So I read this to see if it could fill that gap. No such luck.

In this entire lengthy piece that purports to establish that Islam "does not command war against Jews," Tezyapar never mentions Qur'an 5:82, which designates the Jews "the most hostile of men to the believers." She never mentions 5:51, which tells Muslims not to take Jews or Christians as friends and protectors. She never mentions Sahih Muslim 6985, in which Muhammad says that “the last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him.”
