Texas Lawmakers Blast ‘Anti-American’, ‘Anti-Christian’ Curriculum

CSCOPE (education) according to Wikipedia.
“For us, CSCOPE is a lifesaver,” Dina Webb, director of curriculum in Lackland, told the San Antonio Express. “We don’t mandate how teachers use it and certainly, as a military district, wouldn’t teach anything anti-American. But we certainly don’t have the money or staff to be able to write new curriculum every time the state standards change.”
But critics – including some state lawmakers – believe the curriculum is anti-American.  (From the Starnes article below.)

Todd Starnes  "Texas lawmakers are putting educators on the hot seat after public school curriculum surfaced that  promoted Islam and socialism while deconstructing American values and patriotism."
"School children were exposed to lessons that labeled the Boston Tea Party an act of terrorism. They were also instructed to create flags for socialist and communist countries. And they were also given in-depth lessons in the Islamic faith that included classroom readings from the Koran.
"“They are indoctrinating our children to hate America,” said Janice VanCleave, of Texas Education Patriots. “Texans are embarrassed about this.” "

 From World Net Daily: Texas teaching 'Allah is the Almighty God'  
"According to excerpts, under the heading, “Who Is Allah?,” students are told:
“Allah is the Almighty God.”
“Allah alone is the Creator. He alone deserves our devout love and worship.”
"Muhammad is described as having become “disillusioned with the corruption in the city and the growing gap between the urban dwellers and the Bedouins (nomadic herders).”
"But there is no mention of his documented sex activities with a child or his penchant for beheading entire indigenous people groups."

Is there a correlation between all this and the massive influx of Californians into Texas? I know, I know; I'm a transplanted Californian, but doing everything possible to keep Texas Texas. TD
