*You know there's a problem when even the teachers start complaining about
the obvious bias:*

*HS test 'slams' Christianity, lauds Islam*

State testmakers played favorites when quizzing high-schoolers on world
religions -- giving Islam and Buddhism the kid-gloves treatment while
socking it to Christianity, critics say.

Teachers complain that the reading selections from the Regents exam in
global history and geography given last week featured glowing passages
pertaining to Muslim society but much more critical essay excerpts on the
subject of Christianity.

"There should have been a little balance in there," said one Brooklyn
teacher who administered the exam but did not want to be identified.

"To me, this was offensive because it's just so inappropriate and the timing
of it was piss-poor," he added, referring to the debate over the plan to
build a mosque near Ground Zero.

The most troubling passage came from Daniel Roselle's "A World History: A
Cultural Approach," observers said.

The passage reads: "Wherever they went, the Moslems [sic] brought with them
their love of art, beauty and learning. From about the eighth to the
eleventh century, their culture was superior in many ways to that of western
Christendom."

Meanwhile, an excerpt listing the common procedures used by Christian friars
to introduce the religion in Latin America stated that "idols, temples and
other material evidences of paganism [were] destroyed," and "Christian
buildings [were] often constructed on sites of destroyed native temples" --
and built with free Indian labor, to boot.

"I can see why some people might see these questions as skewed," said Mark
MacWilliams, a religious-studies professor at St. Lawrence University in
upstate Canton. "Why does the exam seem to have only documents that portray
Islam as a religion of peace, civilization and refinement, while it includes
documents about Christianity that show it was anything but peaceful in the
Spanish conquest of the Americas?"

At the same time, MacWilliams criticized the presentation of Hernando
Cortes' conquest of Mexico -- which he said portrayed him as a "choirboy"
rather than a "conquistador."

"It's quite a whitewash," he said.
