It's actually not religious texts(which makes this more ridiculous).  The group of words aren't even found in the Qur'an. 

 

Also, how is it nonsense? If you don't know, that's repeated hundreds of times in the Qur'an. yes, Islam is way more complex, but the most basic idea it spreads is that Allah is the one and only god, and Muhammad is his final messager.

"Here is the shahada, the Islamic statement of faith" Obviuosly a religious text regardless if place of origin within said religion.

 

It removed the shahada from world religion instruction. "A different, non-religious sample of Arabic calligraphy will be used in the future," it said.

Problem solved. Students still learn and the religious text is left out.

 

let's say they kept it. Why do people think they're suddenly under attack? Why do people in 2015 feel the need to always feel offended?

teachers were smart for doing this. However, the fact that people are this low is disappointing. If i had children, I honestly wouldn't care if they had to copy some words. They probably would just want to finish the homework and move on!
