9 Investigates: Dad protests Islamic lessons at school

Posted: 12:35 p.m. Monday, Feb. 9, 2015

SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. — A history book used in school districts across the state is sparking controversy in Seminole County.

A parent called 9 Investigates after finding out his son was learning too much about the Islamic religion in a public classroom.

Ron Wagner read from part of his son's world history book, "There is no god, but God. Muhamad is the messenger of God."

Wagner is not reading the Five Pillars of Islam from the Quran, but rather his son's 10th-grade world history book from Lyman High School.
