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.

Complete idiots!! How dare they. If I were to move to Saudis Arabia and sent my child to school, I wouldn’t be offended that they don’t celebrate Christmas or Easter. FukinBS!!
And if my child went to school in Denmark, I wouldn’t be offended that they don’t celebrate anything but the state religion there.
But we here in the US are proud that we don’t have a state religion and that all are welcome!
Cowards! This country was founded on Christian values not Islam. Give me a break!
Haha – good joke 🙂 We all know our founding fathers were humanists and deists. That’s why they were so strict about separation of church and state!
NO!!
Since when did a muslim tell America we can’t believe in something…since we elected a muslim to the White House…..how asisine this country is.
They should change nothing
FIRE the school board, tell the rag head MUSLIMS to go to hell with their demands or wants, and to have a ham sandwich as the leave!
Fire the school board or superintendent, parents ban together and home school your kids, since they won’t go to school there should be NO need to pay for school taxes, and let the schools go bankrupt. Also, there should be NO FUNDING FROM CONGRESS IN ANYWAY!!
The school board should have stood fast, and changed nothing! Parents should demand that board members who voted in favor of the changes be fired, immediately!
Aw, stop whining. Shoot back or shut up.
Hell NO
