Muslims are gaining ground and the Christians are being beaten down. It is written in the last days, good is bad , and bad is good.
There's one way to deal with this stuff and it's not by bowing and surrendering. Islam is a very violent theology and they count on liberal political correctness to conquer.

Easy enough. Call the school and ask them if they've provided similar unrequested prayer rooms to those of every other religion. Go ahead. Do it.

You know, you're right. I will call them tomorrow, and report back on what they tell me.

Great. There are 19 major world religions, subdivided into a total of 270 large religious groups. Make sure the school has provided an unrequested prayer room for each one, and not just for Muslims.

I am guessing that you as a taxpayer would be first in line with the pitchforks and torches if your local school actually tried to provide a room for each of the "19 major world religions, subdivided into a total of 270 large religious groups".

Please try to not be ridiculous in public, it's embarrassing to see, like a fat hairy man in a speedo who clearly thinks that 19-yo blondes find him sexy.

The issue is whether the children at a particular school who request religious accommodation are being accommodated, whether there is a material difference in that accommodation, and how the nature of the accommodation is determined. And that's what I will try to find out.

You see, they do find me sexy. It's because I look them in the eyes when I'm talking to them. I don't just stand their and oogle their *******. Women like it when you actually talk to them and pay attention to them. After that they could care less that my hairy belly roll is covering up most of my speedo. Not all hot 19 year old blondes are as shallow as you think.

All or none should have a prayer room. A single religion should not be given preferential treatment in a public school. Keep in mind that a school board member has gone on record stating that the prayer room for Muslims was the school district's creation. The students didn't request a prayer room.

Wait, so maybe you should just tell yourself they are PUTTING these kids away in a room where nobody can see them or be bothered by their alien prayer rituals.

That should make folks feel better SpinSpinSpin!
