If you know that everywhere Moslems go they do whatever they can to force their religion on everyone around them – and I’m pretty sure the whole world is aware of this fact by now – then why on earth would you invite them into your country, unless you want your country to become an Islamic country.
I’m serious. It’s a serious question. I honestly have no conception of what the logic could possibly be.
Clearly, Jews just do these things, but what do the actual people think when they look at this situation? How do they justify it in their own minds?
A coalition has been formed to fight for the rights of Muslim students.
Christmas and Rosh Hashanah are holidays that appear on school calendars across the state—but some say all students are not being treated equally.
“Our concern is that the Muslim community is being treated differently,” said Zainab Chaudry.
Chaudry is part of the Equality For Eid Coalition, pushing to have the Muslim holidays of Eid added to school calendars in both Frederick and Howard counties. She says right now, Muslim students are either forced to miss the holiday or miss school.
“When Eid falls on a school day, students are marked absent. It’s an excused absence but it’s still an absence so it ruins their perfect attendance; they miss classroom instruction, exams, quizzes,” Chaudry said.
The push follows a controversial move by the school board in nearby Montgomery County. Muslims there fought for Eid to be put on the calendar.
“As a staff person, I work for the school system. I want to be able to say that I am proud that I am taking a day off for my holiday, to celebrate my holiday,” said one.
The school board denied that request and went one step further.
“I think we need to be religion-neutral in our calendar,” said Patricia O’Neill, Montgomery County School Board.
That means the words Christmas, Easter and Yom Kippur are now replaced with winter break and spring break. It’s a move the coalition didn’t want to see.
“We don’t think that it’s fair to punish any other faith group in our quest for equality,” Chaudry said.
They just want recognition for their holy days, too.
