removed The Holocaust from the school curriculum
 
I have made up a web page from an email that was sent to me Link the photos were taken as evedence as it was thought people might say it never happened!!

Is it time to move on or should our children be told the truth as part of our worlds history at school???

If we forget out history we are doomed to repeat it.

Bovine bodily waste.

Is there a news link or something to confirm this by the way?

Can't believe this is true.

Can we have some confirmation on this?

In my opinion history classes should be teaching the most controversial subjects. How is a democracy suppose to function when the populace are ignorant of the issues?

Seem to remember this being thoroughly debunked long ago.

I had the email about a week ago and have tride to find further information via Google. I thought I would post and ask the question??? along with the email........for open discussion after I had another two email.

I know for a fact there are history teachers who do not like covering the subject just like religion because it could offend.

Then we have the news that Scouts and Cubs no longer swear to do their duty to God and the Queen as part of their promise as this could also offend.

My question was: Is it time to move on or should our children be told the truth as part of our worlds history at school???

I’ll tell you one thing, all this Muslim bashing going on, isn’t that one of the ways that Hitler made concentration camps sound acceptable to the German people? It would not surprise me in the least if there turns out to be a Muslim holocaust in the future.

History has a long period to cover, and kids can't be expected to study all periods in history, but it would appear the holocaust is MANDATORY learning in many schools.

Why?

Let they don't cover it enough. I remember being taught the Tudors repeatedly. Would have been nice to learn about the formation of Israel or something that is actually useful today.
