What I Learned in School Today

In my social studies class with Mr. Frey (who is THE MAN) we are learning about other religions and today we learned about Islam. So I will summarize what i learned and how ignorant Americans are.

So first of all when Islam first started some disputes were solved with poetry contests how kewl is that! Imagine if Americans did that now! Not only would that would that reduce violence it would make people smarter, more cultured, and have larger a vocab, and we need that so people can find better ways to insult others and say fuck (the lack of originality really does get boring in the boy's locker room after a while). Also it is part of the Muslim religion to give 20% of their income to charity, which is amazing. Americans don't even give 10%. And if every American who proclaimed to be a Christian gave 10% of their income that would be enough to practically end the worlds poverty and starvation, give education to children in third world countries, and cure most common diseases world wide! So any one who says that most Muslims are terrorists should be punched in the face. Just because there is one Islamic nut job doesn't mean that any of the others are. Most of them are very religious and very moral.

So i hope that you learned something from this post and that you follow the example set by the majority of Muslims. And also don't be like most Americans, greedy and ignorant, it is very unkewl.
