PARENT ALERT: An Islamic biased High School Text Book is under review in Florida after being approved and used there for 3 years...Is it in your child's school?

A world history book used in an Advanced Placement class is under review by a Florida school board over allegations it favors Islam at the expense of Christianity and Judaism. 
State Rep. Ritch Workman told Fox News the Prentice World History textbook rewrites Islamic history and presents a biased version of the Muslim faith. “The book has a 36-page chapter on Islam but no chapters on Christianity or Judaism,” Workman said. “It’s remarkably one-sided.”

Workman said he received a copy of the book and he said it’s clear the authors “make a very obvious attempt not to insult Islam by reshaping history.”
“If you don’t see it from the eyes of a parent, kids are going to take this book as gospel and believe that Christians and Jews were murderous barbarians and thank God the Muslims came along and the world is great,” he said. 
For example, Workman said a reference to Mohammed and his armies taking over Medina states, “people happily accepted Islam as their way of life.” 
“It leaves out that tens of thousands of Jews and non-believers were massacred by Mohammed’s armies,” he said. “It’s a blatant deception.” 
The book indicates that Jesus proclaimed himself to be the Messiah while stating as fact that Mohammed is a prophet, Workman said. Students are also given lessons on the Koran and the five pillars of Islam. The “They don’t do that for Christianity,” he said. “That is offensive to me.”

My first reaction was that whoever approved this book for the school system should be fired. Second, If I had a child in High School now, I'd make damn sure this book isn't being used in his/her her school.

If you have kids in High school, you should read this article and contact your child's school to make sure they don't use this piece of garbage in their classrooms....It's not just Florida. The book is used nationwide.
