An Executive order from Governor Henry created the Ethnic American Advisory Council. Interestingly, the council consists entirely of Muslims. Furthermore, this group is distributing copies of the Quran to all members of the legislators. Taken from a Google article, here is Legislature Rex Duncan’s reason why he is refusing the copy of the Quran.
“Most Oklahomans do not endorse the idea of killing innocent women and children in the name of ideology,” he said in an interview with the Associated Press. Duncan said he objected “to the use of the state Centennial Seal and the state Seal all in an effort to further their (Muslims’) religion.”
He’s not the only one, other members of our legislator are now refusing copies of the (supposedly) holy book.
Which is why I ask, is this something a private group is funding or is Governor Henry expecting the tax payers to pick up the tab?
Update: Per Fox local news, no state funds were used to purchase the Korans.
