mstik: I thought there was freedom of religion in the US

is it in US or 9ija

Engen:

And make them believing everything that happens to them bad or good is because of their Faith in God

Sure, although I won't necessarily have a problem with them blaming their faith in God, if their God was faceless like Allah. But it unnerves me to see Africans walking around offering ceaseless adorations to a handsome white male in their heads. Reminds me of that dog experiment by Pavlov. It's cultural imprinting, plain and simple. If you can't occupy their lands, at least you can occupy their minds. Put a white man in there, make them believe he's God, and let them pray to him for deliverance from everything.

If the boy was reading a Quran and not a bible, most of these comments would have been different.

Mynd44:
If this is not his first warning, he should have obeyed or atleast found another school.

Imagine the chaos and confusion if everyone took their religion to school.

I doubt most of you people here will want your child/ward to sit beside a boy who comes to school with Juju if his parents are Pagans.

I bet it would not be so funny if another student brought the Koran to school and started teaching their child about it. They would probably try to sue the school too. Sometimes people forget that the Christianity is not the only religion. If you allow it for Christians then you allow it for all and the biggest complainers then would be Christians

Surah Al-Furqan (The Criterion)
1.Blessed be He Who sent down the criterion (of right and wrong, i.e. this Qur'an) to His slave (Muhammad) that he may be a warner to the'Alamin(mankind and jinns).
2.He to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and Who has begotten no son (children or offspring) and for Whom there is no partner in the dominion. He has created everything, and has measured it exactly according to its due measurements.
3.Yet they have taken besides Him otheraliha(gods) that created nothing but are themselves created, and possess neither hurt nor benefit for themselves, and possess no power (of causing) death, nor (of giving) life, nor of raising the dead.
4.Those who disbelieve say: "This (the Qur'an) is nothing but a lie that he (Muhammad) has invented, and others have helped him at it, so that they have produced an unjust wrong (thing) and a lie."
5.And they say: "Tales of the ancients, which he has written down, and they are dictated to him morning and afternoon."
6.Say: "It (this Qur'an) has been sent down by Him (Allah) (the Real Lord of the heavens and earth) Who knows the secret of the heavens and the earth. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
7.And they say: "Why does this Messenger (Muhammad) eat food, and walk about in the markets (like ourselves). Why is not an angel sent down to him to be a warner with him?
8."Or (why) has not a treasure been granted to him, or why has he not a garden whereof he may eat?" And theZalimun(polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) say: "You follow none but a man bewitched."
9.See how they coin similitudes for you, so they have gone astray, and they cannot find a (Right) Path.
10.Blessed be He Who, if He will, will assign you better than (all) that, - Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise) and will assign you palaces (i.e. in Paradise).
11.Nay, they deny the Hour (the Day of Resurrection), and for those who deny the Hour, We have prepared a flaming Fire (i.e. Hell).
12.When it (Hell) sees them from a far place, they will hear its raging and its roaring.
13.And when they shall be thrown into a narrow place thereof, chained together, they will exclaim therein for destruction.
14.Exclaim not today for one destruction, but exclaim for many destructions.
15.Say: (O Muhammad) "Is that (torment) better or the Paradise of Eternity promised to theMuttaqun(pious and righteous persons - see V.2:2)?" It will be theirs as a reward and as a final destination.
16.For them there will be therein all that they desire, and they will abide (there forever). It is a promise binding upon your Lord that must be fulfilled.
17.And on the Day when He will gather them together and that which they worship besides Allah [idols, angels, pious men, saints, 'Iesa (Jesus) - son of Maryam (Mary), etc.]. He will say: "Was it you who misled these My slaves or did they (themselves) stray from the (Right) Path?"
18.They will say: "Glorified be You! It was not for us to take anyAuliya'(Protectors, Helpers, etc.) besides You, but You gave them and their fathers comfort till they forgot the warning, and became a lost people (doomed to total loss).
19.Thus they (false gods all deities other than Allah) will give you (polytheists) the lie regarding what you say (that they are gods besides Allah), then you can neither avert (the punishment), nor get help. And whoever among you does wrong (i.e. sets up rivals to Allah), We shall make him taste a great torment.
20.And We never sent before you (O Muhammad) any of the Messengers but verily, they ate food and walked in the markets. And We have made some of you as a trial for others: will you have patience? And your Lord is Ever All-Seer (of everything).
21.And those who expect not for a Meeting with Us (i.e. those who deny the Day of Resurrection and the life of the Hereafter), say: "Why are not the angels sent down to us, or why do we not see our Lord?" Indeed they think too highly of themselves, and are scornful with great pride.
22.On the Day they will see the angels, no glad tidings will there be for theMujrimun(criminals, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, etc.) that day. And they (angels) will say: "All kinds of glad tidings are forbidden for you," [None will be allowed to enter Paradise except the one who said:La ilaha ill-Allah,"(none has the right to be worshipped but Allah) and acted practically on its legal orders and obligations].
23.And We shall turn to whatever deeds they (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, etc.) did, and We shall make such deeds as scattered floating particles of dust.
24.The dwellers of Paradise (i.e. those who deserved it through their Faith and righteousness) will, on that Day, have the best abode, and have the fairest of places for repose.
25.And (remember) the Day when the heaven shall be rent asunder with clouds, and the angels will be sent down, with a grand descending.
26.The sovereignty on that Day will be the true (sovereignty), belonging to the Most Beneficent (Allah), and it will be a hard Day for the disbelievers (those who disbelieve in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism).
27.And (remember) the Day when theZalim(wrong-doer, oppressor, polytheist, etc.) will bite at his hands, he will say: "Oh! Would that I had taken a path with the Messenger ( Muhammad).
28."Ah! Woe to me! Would that I had never taken so-and-so as a friend!
29."He indeed led me astray from the Reminder (this Qur'an) after it had come to me. AndShaitan(Satan) is ever a deserter to man in the hour of need."
30.And the Messenger (Muhammad) will say: "O my Lord! Verily, my people deserted this Qur'an (neither listened to it, nor acted on its laws and orders).
31.Thus have We made for every Prophet an enemy among theMujrimun(disbelievers, polytheists, criminals, etc.). But Sufficient is your Lord as a Guide and Helper.
32.And those who disbelieve say: "Why is not the Qur'an revealed to him all at once?" Thus (it is sent down in parts), that We may strengthen your heart thereby. And We have revealed it to you gradually, in stages. (It was revealed to the Prophetin 23 years.).
33.And no example or similitude do they bring (to oppose or to find fault in you or in this Qur'an), but We reveal to you the truth (against that similitude or example), and the better explanation thereof.
34.Those who will be gathered to Hell (prone) on their faces, such will be in an evil state, and most astray from the (Straight) Path.
35.And indeed We gave Musa (Moses) the Scripture [the Taurat (Torah)], and placed his brother Harun (Aaron) with him as a helper;
36.And We said: "Go you both to the people who have denied OurAyat(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)." Then We destroyed them with utter destruction.
37.And Nuh's (Noah) people, when they denied the Messengers We drowned them, and We made them as a sign for mankind. And We have prepared a painful torment for theZalimun(polytheists and wrong-doers, etc).

mstik: I thought there was freedom of religion in the US

...this is Anti-christ...watch out, it has been happening here in Naija...by Boko Haram killing innocent..

The US don't practice religion in schools-its purely academics. Strange practice though for a nation found by christians

Imagine!! Abi na satanic establish the schl?

judedwriter: The US don't practice religion in schools-its purely academics. Strange practice though for a nation found by christians

The founding fathers were not Christians. Deism and Christianity are two different things.

Folks its the school's policy n d lil dude av bin given prior warning b4 expulsion. Rel. Bigots mek i hia word.

there has to be more to this story. Maybe he was proselytizing.
I don't see why a school will suspend a student just for reading the bible. If it is true then that's a shame.

Look at people's comments! If the boy was to be a Muslim now, the comments would have been the other way round. SMH!

mstik: I thought there was freedom of religion in the US

Freedom of RELIGION!
You meam "freedom to practise christianity and paganism"

Shalek: If the boy was reading a Quran and not a bible, most of these comments would have been different.

***yes bcoz, apart from bible every other religion book is satanic including quran. We christains only read quran to discover the stupidity of Muslim and help them out of there ignorance that may lead to their doom.

Mynd44:
If this is not his first warning, he should have obeyed or atleast found another school.

Imagine the chaos and confusion if everyone took their religion to school.

I doubt most of you people here will want your child/ward to sit beside a boy who comes to school with Juju if his parents are Pagans.

I laugh at those hitting like on this comment.oya install ur juu or hijab inside tecno andriod make we see.

They don't need to fight anything or anyone, simple remove your child from the school... Devilish school Methinks

i don't get it!!!. He wasn't preaching but reading!!! reading the bible..that's not an offense to anybody.

38.And (also) 'Ad and Thamud, and the dwellers of Ar-Rass, and many generations in between.
39.And for each of them We put forward examples (as proofs and lessons, etc.), and each (of them) We brought to utter ruin (because of their disbelief and evil deeds).
40.And indeed they have passed by the town [of Prophet Lout (Lot)] on which was rained the evil rain. Did they (disbelievers) not then see it (with their own eyes)? Nay ! But they used not to expect for any resurrection.
41.And when they see you (O Muhammad), they treat you only as a mockery (saying):"Is this the one whom Allah has sent as a Messenger?
42."He would have nearly misled us from ouraliha(gods), had it not been that we were patient and constant in their worship!" And they will know when they see the torment, who it is that is most astray from the (Right) Path!
43.Have you (O Muhammad) seen him who has taken as hisilah(god) his own desire? Would you then be aWakil(a disposer of his affairs or a watcher) over him?
44.Or do you think that most of them hear or understand? They are only like cattle; nay, they are even farther astray from the Path. (i.e. even worst than cattle).
45.Have you not seen how your Lord spread the shadow. If He willed, He could have made it still then We have made the sun its guide [i.e. after the sunrise, it (the shadow) squeezes and vanishes at midnoon and then again appears in the afternoon with the decline of the sun, and had there been no sun light, there would have been no shadow].
46.Then We withdraw it to Us a gradual concealed withdrawal.
47.And it is He Who makes the night a covering for you, and the sleep (as) repose, and makes the dayNushur(i.e. getting up and going about here and there for daily work, etc. after one's sleep at night or like resurrection after one's death).
48.And it is He Who sends the winds as heralds of glad tidings, going before His Mercy (rain), and We send down pure water from the sky,
49.That We may give life thereby to a dead land, and We give to drink thereof many of the cattle and men that We had created.
50.And indeed We have distributed it (rain or water) amongst them in order that they may remember the Grace of Allah, but most men refuse (or deny the Truth or Faith) and accept nothing but disbelief or ingratitude.
51.And had We willed, We would have raised a warner in every town.
52.So obey not the disbelievers, but strive against them (by preaching) with the utmost endeavour, with it (the Qur'an).
53.And it is He Who has let free the two seas (kinds of water), one palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter, and He has set a barrier and a complete partition between them.
54.And it is He Who has created man from water, and has appointed for him kindred by blood, and kindred by marriage. And your Lord is Ever All-Powerful to do what He will.
55.And they (disbelievers, polytheists, etc.) worship besides Allah, that which can neither profit them nor harm them, and the disbeliever is ever a helper (of the Satan) against his Lord.
56.And We have sent you (O Muhammad) only as a bearer of glad tidings and a warner.
57.Say: "No reward do I ask of you for this (that which I have brought from my Lord and its preaching, etc.), save that whosoever wills, may take a Path to his Lord.
58.And put your trust (O Muhammad) in the Ever Living One Who dies not, and glorify His Praises, and Sufficient is He as the All-Knower of the sins of His slaves;

59.Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six Days. Then HeIstawa(rose over) the Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). The Most Beneficent (Allah)! Ask Him (O Prophet Muhammad), (concerning His Qualities, His rising over His Throne, His creations, etc.), as He isAl-Khabir(The All-Knower of everything i.e. Allah).
60.And when it is said to them: "Prostrate to the Most Beneficent (Allah)! They say: "And what is the Most Beneficent? Shall we fall down in prostration to that which you (O Muhammad) command us?" And it increases in them only aversion.
61.Blessed be He Who has placed in the heaven big stars, and has placed therein a great lamp (sun), and a moon giving light.
62.And He it is Who has put the night and the day in succession, for such who desires to remember or desires to show his gratitude.
63.And the slaves of the Most Beneficent (Allah) are those who walk on the earth in humility and sedateness, and when the foolish address them (with bad words) they reply back with mild words of gentleness.
64.And those who spend the night before their Lord, prostrate and standing.
65.And those who say: "Our Lord! Avert from us the torment of Hell. Verily! Its torment is ever an inseparable, permanent punishment."
66.Evil indeed it (Hell) is as an abode and as a place to dwell.
67.And those, who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor niggardly, but hold a medium (way) between those (extremes).
68.And those who invoke not any otherilah(god) along with Allah, nor kill such life as Allah has forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this shall receive the punishment.
69.The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in disgrace;
70.Except those who repent and believe (in Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, for those, Allah will change their sins into good deeds, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
71.And whosoever repents and does righteous good deeds, then verily, he repents towards Allah with true repentance.
72.And those who do not witness falsehood, and if they pass by some evil play or evil talk, they pass by it with dignity.
73.And those who, when they are reminded of theAyat(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of their Lord, fall not deaf and blind thereat.
74.And those who say: "Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders for theMuttaqun"(pious - see V.2:2 and the footnote of V.3:164)."
75.Those will be rewarded with the highest place (in Paradise) because of their patience. Therein they shall be met with greetings and the word of peace and respect.
76.Abiding therein; excellent it is as an abode, and as a place to dwell.

Kai! We're really in end times. I'm very sure that boy is very well behaved in school, and that Bible made him. Very obedient to his parents too. The kind of child I want Lord.

It has already been said, people will crucify u for even what is right.

Give every little boy a Bible now, and the world will be a better place in the future.

judedwriter: The US don't practice religion in schools-its purely academics. Strange practice though for a nation found by christians

The father of the nation, the founding president, George Washington was not a christian. He was a pantheist (pantheism).
He believed that the universe (or nature as the totality of everything) is the divinity. Not one bearded old clown in heaven as most
of you christian believes.

They don't need to fight anything or anyone, simple remove your child from the school... Devilish school Methinks

red101: there has to be more to this story. Maybe he was proselytizing.
I don't see why a school will suspend a student just for reading the bible. If it is true then that's a shame.

is there anything wrong with that? long as he doesn't point a gun in anyone's face... #

I don't even believe that story.

Jesus died and the grave could not hold him back after 3 days unlike Muhammad.

anybody, power, spirit or idio!t that will forbid me from reading my bible in any country, state, city or village will die for Christ sake.

The truth can't be hidden or stopped.

Unstoppable Jesus i hail u oooooooooooooooooooooooooo

DUDE STOP SPOILING THIS THREAD WITH THOSE SATANIC VERSES, IM SURE MANY AINT READING IT!

It is said that it never happened, people. E bi like some peeps no dey read at all.

mstik: I thought there was freedom of religion in the US

dont read the lower line

America is a country that put God in everything they do. In their currency its boldly written "In God we trust" even in their constitution. Obama always end his statement by saying God bless American. If there is God mentioned in their constitution why do they now forbid it in schools. If d president can mention God publicly why then is a child punished from saying it.

Americans are all hypocrite

AmunRaOlodumare:
Should have been the first policy introduced in Africa by the law makers after the end of colonization!

Nothing worse than having your people mentally and spiritually colonized by the colonialist enemy who then enslave and colonize your people!

bless u o jare!

Hope the school is not in Afghanistan

I smell lies

nnamdibig: PLAINVIEW, TX – A 13-year-old boy was suspended from school after he was caught reading the Bible during recess. Plainview Middle School says Joshua Patterson violated school policy by reading the Bible in school.
School officials say the student was warned several times that he could not practice religion during school hours, but refused to comply. A letter was sent home to the child’s parents warning them that Joshua could be suspended or even expelled if he continued this behavior.
Patterson’s parents, who are devout Christians, told their son to continue reading his Bible because it was his Constitutional right. Megan and Daniel Patterson say they intend to file a lawsuit against Plainview Middle School.

“We are going to fight this with all of our might,” said the child’s father Daniel Patterson. “How can a school tell a student that something as simple as reading his Bible is wrong? We teach our children about the miraculous wonders of God, and Joshua has taken a special interest in religion. His dream is to one day be a preacher. This school has violated the rights of our child, and we will ensure this never happens to another student.”
The school refused to elaborate on why they chose to suspend Joshua, other than saying his actions were directly against school policy.
