mgbadike81:
the op is making sense, would anybody dare to set similar Christian based questions in an Islamic religious examination state examination, those that set this examination are negligent of their duties, it's crs not civic or social studies, and i sincerely wonder if all these compulsory study of religion in our schools is really meaningful and reproductive.

Yes, as a Muslim I can assure you that we do because total ignorance of Christianity makes it easy for a Muslim to be swayed by Christian doctrine
Nothing a Christian says can EVER EVER make me become a Christian because I am familiar with the religion

And for the confusing No.49 question... Islam is not created/founded by anyone, it is solely the religion of God sent by God to his last prophet(Muhammad) to be practiced by all mankindto.

Gourdoinc:
I don't see anything wrong here. alot of students would have claimed Islam was created by Nathan or it's holy book is called a hymn book. just try and go through the marked scripts and see what Nigerian students are capable of. education Must be holistic and cuts across all divides. so no biggie

who founded satanism? if you dont know then your education is not holistic enough.

the founder of religions should be taught under social studies or history and not in a religious subject. Belief systems are sensitive and usually conflicting. the question about "holy book" might be sensitive to a christian cos Christians do not consider the quran to be holy.

Should the question below appear in an Islamic Religious Knowledge exam:

who do Christians consider as the son of God and saviour of the world?

Crk theology give room to learn about other religion it is part of syllabus

domesifa:
This is neither Social Studies nor Civic Education paper. It is Christian Religious Education paper in the just concluded State Junior Certificate Examination!

Is this part of CRK curriculum taught in our schools? What have questions 48 and 49 got to do with Christianity?

Haven't we shot ourselves on the feet! Curriculum experts get in here and explain this

The question is aren't there other general knowledge subjects such as Civic Education and Social Studies that should rather contain these sort of questions? This is the crux of the matter: CURRICULUM CONTENT!

Stop being a fanatic , if the christian students don't know about the holy book of Muslims as Quran how do you want them to respect the book? Pls let Nigeria have peace.

segebobo:
It's not good to be so narrow minded. That you offer CRS does not mean you shouldn't have some knowledge of IRS.
An educated student is supposed to be well-rounded or holistic in acquisition of knowledge.

No, you are not supposed to. Exams for courses are set with the scope of that course in sight. When only one of two diametrically opposite concepts are discussed, tasking the student to provide answer to the one never taught or covered is mischievous. That's commonsense.

UniqueMB:
I don't see any biggie here. The fact that it's CRS doesn't mean students should be oblivious to other people's religions.

Ok Now, where in IRK do you see question on Jesus or Bible related matter? These intrusion and the inordinate love of money by the custodian of Christianity vis-à-vis corruption of the churchs of God by many pastors is really making the youth of nowadays to miss their way and become wayward with no concrete believe in God and the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ which is paramount for all Christian. These watering down we see nowadays is just unacceptable and something drastic has to be done to correct all these anomalies. People should stop sweeping serious issues under the carpet until little by little they turn to Boko haram matter. We know how intolerant this issues can turn out sometimes. Why not do the right thing from the onset?

Let us be reasonable here. This has never happened before. Mixing crk with irk and not the other way round. Why do you ppl insisting on the impossible? Is it not obvious that you can Islamize this Country. Your predecessors have all tried it, and we how how they ended up. We don't fight for our God, but our God fight for us. because He is not a stature. You ppl should rest

I guess they should also learn about the books of satanists and African traditionalists.....

the bolded is the difference

But you ignored this

zicoraads:
You cannot say anything here if you don't know what is contained in the syllabus. I have corrected and vetted questions that were to be written by Muslim students of a purely Islamic school. The subject was World History. And the questions contained a lot of questions on Jesus Christ and Christianity. I asked or the syllabus and saw they actually did some work on Christianity. This is a purely Islamic school through and through.

In my church, before being baptized, we spend two years in a catchesim class. We learn about major religions, including Islam. For you to be baptized, you must have a basic knowledge of Islam and other religions as well.

This is normal. Let's stop acting like cavemen and actually read up.

laribari:


Are you kidding me? No biggie? Well you don't know what CRS is. Does it sound like Islam?

Dem for kukuma write sey Jesus is not the son of God as Islam already claim which is contrary to the bible.

Are you sick? If a christian does not know the Quran as the holy book of Muslim how do you expect him to respect the book.Don't be a fanatic jor

Lanretoye:
I think because it is crs does not mean students should be alien to other religion...we shouldn't be totally misguided.

Totally misguided? Is this submission based on logic or just the usual Nigerian carelessness? Why should something that wasn't in the curriculum of a subject be brought up in the exams? I'd also complain if I find any atom of CRS in IRS.

Lol, u dis guy gan, u just like prob everytime,
First, Thank God this is Akwa Ibom ( Christianity State) and not Kaduna or Ilorin.
In addition, y don't you mention Q47 as well and said Dey want impose Yoruba (SW) on the student, the fact there, is that we are in Nigeria That comprises of; any lang and religion, and dat Q47 reflect two thing, wch is Yoruba and there Traditional Religion as well, So that's hw

laribari:

It's their belief. Allow them to it.

UniqueMB:

Is wrong my brother, if anybody mistakingly write Jesus in IRS ,the person will not live to set another question .

Adeoba10:
You should try and see the scheme of work and syllabus before saying trash... Dont you see question numb. 47? They will be shouting Islamization, despite the fact that the question paper was from Akwa Ibom state, i don't know maybe someone will carry gun and force Pa, Adeboye to mosque or Oyedepo to Asalatu. Useless set of hypocrite

.If were you, i will just keep my mouth shut, so that you don't end up telling people how uninformed you are. CRS syllabus can never
contain anything Islamic. The truth be told, the examiner who set those questions may have done that on purpose not because it was in the syllabus.

We attach so much religion sentiment in Nigeria that's why we are finding it difficult to progress, most Nigerian Christians behave like the pharises whom Jesus despise so much because they are full of religion sentiments. Now, what's bad with that question in a CRS exam because even in churches we still discuss Islam in reference to some topics. Why will we include CRS as a core subject even with the number of churches we have are we any way better?...Then let's be sincere which of both civic and CRS deal directly with societal problems, I will pick civic education over CRS in schools.

BetaThings:


But you ignored this

i didnt ignore it. it is simply irrelevant to your argument.

that was in a catechism class not a secular class. it is deliberate by one religious body to study the other. even catholic priest study other religions.

if a muslim cleric teaches tenets of Christianity to his students to see differences or similarities then it is fine ditto for a christian priest.

D tin wey d vex me pass b say..we go talk talk still notin d happen for their ear....

But you ignored this

Nigeria is a very funny country. And that's because we even fail to read. People take things thrown at them hook, line and sinker. I'm a Christian through and through. But my curiosity has led me to be gifted a copy of the Holy Quran and also get extracts about other religions around the world. So when I argue these things, I do it with facts.

When we Religious conspirators tell the world the obvious truth about the world and how deceitful it is towards Christianity and all it stands for we are labelled crazies and in ethical by all means

So what exactly is your point? Condemning questions being asked in a CRS exam, but not condemning learning about it in a church?

Of course you do!
What were the Crusades about?
Google Pope Urban and the Crusades

Even in Iraq as recently as 2003, you were painting crosses on mosques
And you were trying to force Muslims to accept your doctrine

Think before you talk. Will there be a question like that in IRS?

That's stupidity in highest order, students suppose to boycott the question, is not in line with Christianity religion.

Observing things. Who am I a mere son of man to judge? As judgement alone belongs to God Almighty!!

Typical Nigerian youth who are clowns...

Your mates in other countries are innovating in all spheres and hitting new discoveries for advancement of the world in science, arts, etc, but you are all here burning resources (mobile data) discussing an exam set for students in Akwa-Ibom state!

Why are we so backward? Has anyone of you seen the curriculum of Catholic seminaries? They include study of all other major religions for which assessments are set!

Let's get educated and enlightened. We waste too much time on frivolous matters in Nigeria, hence our under-development!

Nigerian politicians are so smart (anyway, they are dealing with fantastically docile, uninformed citizens) by giving you frivolous things to discuss and keep yourselves busy with- things relating to religion and ethnicity- while they go about looting and laughing at your silliness!

Shaking my head...

Babysnow1:
E no matter o
Exam na exam

it matters because you serve a killing god

Nawa for this op o. infact there was no correct option to that question 49. Islam has being in existence from the very first day but was brought to us by prophet Ibrahim not prophet Muhammad. This shows that the examiner is neither a Muslim nor a Muslim expert. Learning Christian values won't make me a Christian. Are you scared they might find the truth or you are just suffering from somatization disorder.


lastly, those politicians that did this to you are just plain wicked. They got you with their mumu button.

teach that in the subject about social studies, history, or civic education

note that this has nothing to do with islamization or any stuff fanatical christians are branding around.

this is simply a faux pas by someone who set the questions and it could easily happen the other way around
