Didn't go to school today... o___o;;;;;;

Postby **Heart of Sword** » Fri Sep 22, 2006 9:53 am

I'm a homeschooler, but I take an art class at the local high school.

There was weird graffiti on the outside of the school. A crescent moon symbol (the symbol of Islam) with three dots, then:

"You call it your right, I call it your weakness.
Ursuls
A. Maud'dib"

I probably got the words wrong but yeah. I didn't go to school today. o___o

Doesn't that sound...weird?

o.o sounds a bit scary. I probably would have stayed home too >.>

o_o.. ok..

I have absolutely no clue why anyone would want to serve the Islamic God..
Woo hoo! Let's go serve a God that hates our guts and wants to punish us!

Er, statements like that are probably uh...yeah. Because people could make the same kind of statements about Christianity, so I really don't think we have room to insult other people's religions. :p

Weird? I don't think feeling disconcerted about something like that is weird. I wouldn't let grafitti of any kind keep me from going to school though.

Not necessary. You'll get HoS's thread locked if you start that.

Thank you for being part of the problem and not part of the solution.

Because you know, the christian god never flooded the world, killed his son, ordered one of his followers to kill his own son, caused people to wander around deserts for 80s years.

Oh wait, yes he did. Oh and that part is also in the koran (jesus-son of god bit aside). Hm.

Well, so much for this thread staying civilized and flame free.

Don't worry yourself too much over it. At least you are in America, not some Muslim country where the same threat would get you killed pretty soon....

A. Maud'dib....Anyone else read Dune? This might be the acts of some sort of fan club, as Muad'dib is a name of one of the major characters....

You don't seem to have much of an understanding of Islam. So don't make comments like those ever again please. For your own benefit of not sounding ignorant and whatnot. You ask a Muslim that question, and I'm sure they'd refute your argument.

Anyway HoS I wouldn't worry too much about it. I don't see it as much as a threat.

Thats odd. But I don't think its a reason to stay home. I'm a public highschooler here, and I deal with stuff like that all the time. Its the real world, sadly. Not everyone has the same religions or beliefs, and although our may be the truth, we still have to respect that they think theirs is the truth.

If you meet that sort of issue again, just move on with it. It'd be a differant story if someone said in graffiti "IM GONNE BOMB THE SCHOOL TODAY FOR MY GOD." Yeah. THEN I wouldn't go to school. But, differant religions are out there and I wouldn't hide from it, because thats how the world is. Unfortunetly.

-shruggles- Lucky charms in da future tho.

I was homeschooled way back when and I wouldn't worry about this... Like people have said, its the real world.

I'm also in the public school scene. If there was a real threat, trust me NO ONE would be aloud to go to school. And the person responsible for the threat would not be attending school much longer. We get crazy threats all the time at my school and they evacuate and then it always turns out there was no real danger some kind was just being dumb.

All that to say... schools take threats very seriously. Don't sweat it.

Speaking as a Christian living in a Muslim country, I have no idea what that is so I will say this - don't let that bother you.

Many ppl misrepresent the Muslim faith as much as those who misrepresent the Christian faith so I think it's best to refrain from making statements like that about each faith.

Just as I start hating homeschooling, I read a thread like this...

Postby **CobaltAngel** » Sat Sep 23, 2006 8:00 am

Well... its not as bad as it sounds. You get used to it. LOL.

Schools are some of the safed places in the world because people take protecting them so seriously.

Postby **Shao Feng-Li** » Sat Sep 23, 2006 8:05 am

Yeah, but you shouldn't have to get used to it, XD.

What.... the heck?

Dude. Cut it out. Seriously. We're over that part now.

Postby **ChristianKitsune** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 9:45 pm

what does that mean anyways? the statement? O_o

I am sorry but I don't speak Islam...*lives in a area where NO islamic people are around...that I know of*

Hi CR, I am guessing the last two lines are names, not words.

Postby **Warrior 4 Jesus** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 3:57 am

Puritan, I thought 'Dune' also when I read the last bit.

Anyway, I don't know what to make of it but there always seem to be people who want to deface property to get their message across. At our primary school we had a massive pentagram sprayed into the sport's ashpalt area and candle wax everywhere. Someone had seen a bunch of people there at night doing something (maybe curses I don't know). Anyway, we came to school the next day and there was a hullabaloo about it. Some people (our pastor and some staff) prayed over the area and it was all good. A bit frightening at the time though.

Everyone friends now? Awesome!

I'm homeschooled too, (You know, the people who spend obsessive amounts of time on here are probably all homeschooled or out of school ^_~) but that's a little disconcerting. I'd be a little hesitant to go to school that day.
