Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
Reading, writing and denying the killing of over 6 million Jews. That’s apparently part of a California schools’ curriculum after parents discovered an assignment telling their children to write papers denying the holocaust.
Rialto United School District assigned eighth grade students an assignment to “write an argumentative essay, based upon cited textual evidence, in which you explain whether or not you believe [the Holocaust] was an actual event in history or merely a political scheme created to influence public emotion and gain wealth.”
The interim Superintendent of the District, Mohammed Islam, claimed that no offense was intended to Jewish members of the community or Jewish parents.
“The intent of the writing prompt was to exercise the use of critical thinking skills,” Islam wrote in a statement. “There was no offensive intent in the crafting of this assignment. We regret that the prompt was misinterpreted.”
The Anti-Defamation League’s Associate Regional Director wrote the assignment had no benefit for students.
“It is ADL’s general position that an exercise asking students to question whether the Holocaust happened has no academic value,” Matthew Friedman wrote in a press release.
A district spokeswoman said the department that assigned the project will undergo cultural sensitivity training. The student’s assignment was canceled after public outrage.
Interesting…then we should deny that slavery actually took place too???? Just because we didn’t live it or see it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. One big shove towards lies….one after another. My argument is- if you can call it that is….so history books tell us George Washington was our first president….well how do we really know???? No one alive now lived then or saw him, maybe that’s a lie some people just made up…you can deny anything if you don’t WANT to believe it, JUST LIKE PEOPLE DENY Christ….however He declares his existence, and will judge those who choose to deny him, and what is done to his chosen people will not go un-punished. Unlike trying to re-write history by denying mass genocide…Jesus will not be denied.and ultimately all will confess He is Lord, whether they do in this life or not…that one will NOT slide.
Appreciate the outcry from community. People are awakening to evil inroads so they can be stopped in their tracks. Very good for our country and citizens who want justice to rule in our Nation.
