What you must remember is that the courts and the lawyers want the Muslims to have whatever they want. They only want to put Christians and Jews in camps, so the Muslims can find them easily.

Where is the Anti-American Criminal Libertine Union to protest this obvious breach of the so-called "wall of separation of church and state"?

[John Jorsett]

He says their parents didn't want the two high school students to have to watch classmates eat while they were fasting for Ramadan.

Next: banning pork products so that they don't have to watch other students eating ham sandwiches.

[oceanview]

hey, West Point is making similar accomodations for muslim cadets.

[SittinYonder]

The superintendent notes that the two students never even used the room but went to the library during lunch.

LOL.

[caisson71]

Hey, hey!! What happened to "seperation of church and state"?

[KellyAdmirer]

Well, my school had a "special room" all ready for these little pukes. It was also known as the "bathroom."

[AD from SpringBay]

Separation of Christianity and state. All others welcome.

[Biblebelter]

But school board member Jennifer Miller calls it a "prayer room." At a board meeting earlier this week, she protested, saying America is a Christian nation, not a Muslim nation.

She cannot protest loud enough and long enough for my liking.

Mason, OH.

I think this is the home town of the guy who does the great Christmas lights. The one who made Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Wizards of Winter so popular on the net last year with a video.

[dcrider182]

WTF? so.. we, as Americans have a separation of church and state.. we can not read the bible, pray ANYWHERE around the school. can't say the Pledge of Allegiance becasue it has the phrase. "one nation UNDER GOD" but a foreign boy can have a separate room for their religion? where are we going to stand up? when are we going to be tired of having OUR culture watered down? this needs to stop. when are we going to stop talking about fixing the problem, stand together and fix it ourselves, with our hands, not mouths?

I'm disgusted

[manic4organic]

I'd like to give them all their own rooms. In the Islamistan country of their choice.

[doug from upland]

Good argument. If they can pray, anyone should be allowed to pray.

[JerseyHighlander]

This is going to cost the school district a lot of money in lawsuits.

This school board sounds like a bunch of idiots.

1. The Muslims were not lead in prayer by faculty.

2. The Muslims did not use school funds to pray.

3. They have the right to religious observance if it doesn't impose upon the other pupils or faculty. I'm more upset when a school district stops serving say pork, for Muslim and Jewish observance, or say stops serving meat on Fridays for Catholics.

4. If Catholics wanted to have a private room on fridays during lunch to observe Lent, the school would have had to oblige. The kids could pray, or throw spitballs at each other in the room.

[azhenfud]

"And, a Mason parent said if one group is allowed to pray in school, everyone else should be, too."

ACLU oughta be all over this islamite prayer room thing - if they were fair. ACLU = Anti-Christian Lawyers' Union?

[MayflowerMadam]

WTF?!? When my Christian religion "excused" me from dancing in gym class, I had to sit on the sidelines and watch everyone else. Guess I should demand an apology from the NY State school system -- maybe I'll ask for some money, too, for pain and suffering.

[VOA]

Controversy erupts after school offers Muslims special room

School?
The Muslims probably now consider it part of their world/property
(Umma).

At least they are polite enough to let the dhimmis still use it
most of it for a school.

[Frwy]

There is a huge gaudy mosque just west of Mason in plain view of everyone who travels south or north on Interstate 75 in and out of Cincinnati. Hence, the muzzie presence in the public schools. In the right hands, like Freepers, this 'special room' the kids were provided - whether they used it or not - could blow the ridiculousness of "separation of Church and state" right out of the water.

As they "say" at sporting events NOISE

[Zionist Conspirator]

But school board member Jennifer Miller calls it a "prayer room." At a board meeting earlier this week, she protested, saying America is a Christian nation, not a Muslim nation.

So will the ACLU fight school prayer or bash chr*stians? Sounds like a dilemma to me!

PS: I do wish people would stop invoking the particular religious heritage of the United States of America as if it had anything to do with determining which is the One True Religion. Saudi Arabia is a moslem nation; does that mean its subjects are "supposed to be" moslems?

"This is a chr*stian nation!" is just the conservative version of the old leftist motto "Deze are de wayz of our pipples." It implies relativism.

NOT only that, but Christian students cannot pray in school, read a Bible, or have meetings. Hell, the Boy Scouts are kicked out of schools because they want allow homosexuals be their leaders. The stinking religion of peace deserves nothing that Christians do not get.
