Default British drop Holocaust lessons from history class to avoid offending Muslims.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...70&ito=newsnow

Teachers are voluntarily (unless it's an order from above) dropping classes about the Holocaust because they fear upsetting the Muslim pupils. Crusades are also being forgotten because apparently there's risk of contradicting what may have been preached at the nearest Mosque.

Fantastic. This is exactly the society that awaits us. Discussion? We won't ever reach that point! What discussion? We're in the consensus world. We're all in agreement. Always been, always will be. When we find a contradiction or opposition, we simply cut on one end or the other et voila, pretend that the problem never existed. As long as we fool ourselves and continue to believe in this lie with all our strength it's all good.

This is a great new history methodology: don't make minority alien students adapt to your history, adapt your history to suit their demands instead. Should work really well for math.

Now I don't blame the teachers as long as they're acting on their own. I'd be afraid of getting London on fire aswell. Without the backing of the higher ups and the assurance of my safety, I wouldn't teach factual history either. I'd demand at least one full-time Bobby body-guard. Of course, this isn't recyprocal. We don't have the opposite happening in the Muslim world. Maybe we're learning how to teach the Holocaust from them.

I'm neither with the holocophobes or the teachers though untill I can confirm that the history books you Brits use aren't another page of Bizzaro world themselves.

EDIT: Apparently the title is misleading. Sheesh, glad we don't read a book by its cover! Trying a new title.

EDIT2 : Nevermind, I can't edit the title.
