Ms. Maltz better be careful about the "diversity mafia" she seems so eager to support. Just wait until she tells her Mexican friends not to put out candles during Nochebuena or when her Muslim friends tell her that she offends them by her very existence.

Hey, Ms. Maltz, guess what? You have to learn to live with us Goyim! No, I do not want you to convert (not unless your heart tells you to do so), nor would I want you to be forced to pray. My religiously mixed elementary school sang both Christmas and Hannukah songs with no problems. My Jewish neighbors never complained about our light displays and the huge creche on our lawn and, as a matter of fact, complimented my father's skills with illumination.

As an American citizen, you indeed have the right to worship (or not worship) as you wish. Nevertheless, this does NOT mean you have the right to prohibit the majority of your neighbors from freely celebrating and expressing your faith.

Besides, you can always send your kids to a Yeshiva. Judging from this and other articles you have written, however, this would probably remind you of the faith you have lost.

Actually, I don't think she can, unless she's willing to send them to someplace at least 3 hours away. Local School Districts here in central PA have been very successful at keeping competition out. There are very few private schools - the catholic school just started going past 6th grade a couple years ago, and I heard the Christian school closed. No other private schools past 6th grade, because PA law makes it very onerous to have middle or high school as a private school. I've often suspected that the local school district is quick to report the few private schools we go have, for infractions of rules that the public schools don't have to follow...
