Muslim holiday being honored by Conn. school district includes animal sacrifice We reported on the basics of this story earlier. I felt another post was necessary for some of the specifics.
According to the NY Daily News, one of the holidays that the Waterbury school district has decided to honor is Eid al-Adha:
The board voted to recognize Eid Al-Fitr, marking the end of the month of Ramadan, and Eid Al-Adha, an annual feast day, by giving observant students the day off to celebrate with their families. It also voted to instruct educators not to schedule any field trips, major tests or class events on the two holidays, according to the FoxCT channel.
Walid Shoebat points out that Eid al-Adha isnt just a day of prayer and family, but it also includes the sacrificing of an animal at the end of the day:
Eid al-Adha is the Muslim Festival of the sacrifice which falls on the Muslim 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah and lasts for three days.

“whats this separation of church and state nonsense is all about?’
It is the separation of the Christian church from the State. All others are OK with as much State influence as they can muster. Or another line in the total transformation/destruction of the area once know as the USA.
