If the valedictorian were Muslim at my child's school, I sure as hell wouldn't want to be hearing "praise Allah" during his speech. I doubt any of you would either.




Excellent point. Too bad not many people on here will speak the truth.

Her right to say it trumps my feeeeelings about what she has to say. I may not like it but that's not the point.

It wouldn't bother me. If thats her faith, then thats her faith and I respect it.

It's called tolerance. I guess you haven't heard of it.

If a muslim gets to the top of his class, he has earned the right to say "praise Allah" before his graduating class. I may not want to hear it either, but as Patrick Henry said, I will defend to the death his right to say it.
