I don't see what the issue of teaching arabic numerals is. Maybe that's because I'm not some stupid conspiracy theorist that thinks that all the mooslims are gonna kill the white people.
I keep asking the question in this thread.
They are characters. Knowing them can be helpful and I cannot think of any scenario where knowing an arabic number is detrimental to anyone.
No one gives an actual answer. One guy suggested it was because X time XVII is too hard but those are roman numerals.
