References to Christmas, Easter, Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanahhave been stricken from next year’s school calendar in Montgomery County, MD. This was in response to Muslim demands that the school district give equal treatment to the Muslim holy day of Eid al-Adha
This stripping of all religious holidays off the calendar wasn’t exactly what Saqib Ali, former Maryland state delegate and member of the Equality for Eid Coalition, had hoped for.
“By stripping the names Christmas, Easter, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, they have alienated other communities now, and we are no closer to equality,” stated Ali. “It’s a pretty drastic step, and they did it without any public notification.”
The Maryland school district appears to have been battling the Muslims in their efforts by taking this action.

These are the holidays we have cherished and celibrated for all of our lives. Why do we have to keep giving up what we believe in. Why are our beliefs going down the toilet little by little. We should remove all the beliefs of all not just US. Or the complainers should shut the hell up and respect that not everyone believes the same way. I say they should SHUT THE F### up. just saying.
NO “F” the Muslim
Hell No!!
Time to grow up and get a life! If they are stupid enough to listen to that bullcrap Fire the ones whom are allowing this and close the schools until someone figures out this is America and were not taking orders from the nut cases!
Fire whoever caved on this and restore the calendar to its original form.
None of our holidays need removed and if the Muslims don’t like then that is tough S//T
O.K. then. Take away all the Christian holidays the staff have off.
