I’m sorry, but Christmas is a national holiday, and federal law trumps local school districts.

At least, until Sharia becomes the law of the land...

...but Christmas is a national holiday

Not just here in America, but it is INTERnational. So are we to stop celebrating Christmas around the world, next? Christmas is both a religious and commercial holiday, (whether we like to admit it or not). I think there will be more to be said about this from the retail industry than from any religious sector. No Christmas, no presents, no buying sprees, no wave of big dollars spent in December for the tills of free enterprise. That is what the muslims want anyway...the downfall of international enterprise. That is their real goal.

The objection to any religious activity or celebration is only a scam they are employing to get to their ultimate objective. They use the emotional ploy of their long grown old religious beliefs to ignite the dull minds of the sheep (who follow them) into a frienzy against any country that allows any religious practice except muslim. They know their people will fight for something if they base it on religious beliefs and so they can roust followers with this line of thought who wouldn't otherwise be aroused to fight against commercial growth.

Trying to stop the celebration of Christmas (and basing it on religious beliefs alone) - or any holiday anywhere (Easter, Chaunakkah) that sparks heightened spending might just wake people up all over the world when they see what will happen to the economy as a result.

The way I read this they were cancelling the activities not the day off.

If they dont like the holiday and if the schools are starting to end the celebration than I say everyone work that day and dont get it off for a holiday. Frankly I am getting sick of all this double standard stuff.
