I knew this Jay Worona many years ago...and am related to him by marriage! I'll ask one of his other cousins to kick his buttt during Rosh Hasonah brunch.

Actually, the article is about double standards. Time off for Christian or Jewish Holy Days but not Muslim Holy Days, that would be a double standard. Allowing a place for Muslims to pray but not for Christians or Jews, that would be a double standard. Allowing display of Muslim holy items but not the Ten Commandments, that would be a double standard.

The problem with the thinking is that there is a so called "seperation of Church and state" while none exists in the Bill of Rights. The idea of "seperation" is pushed by secularists (atheists, if you prefer). Atheism is a religion becasue it is something one believes in and follows devotedly. And the 7th Federal Court of Appeals ruled as such on Aug 20, 2005.

Atheists have been pushing their religion on the rest of us since the late 1940s and the courts have helped. They are in the minority but have succeeded in supressing the will of the majority. They are trying to get atheism as the national religion by demonizing everything Christian or Jewish.

Remember folks, Freedom isn't Free. It was bought with the blood and sacrifice of the men and women who are serving and who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.

For those who fought for it, Freedom has a flavor that the protected will never know.

Also remember folks, that the way to SUPPORT THE TROOPS is to support their mission. Anyone who says that they support the troops but don't support their mission is lying about supporting the troops. And if you want to know, yes I do have a dog in the fight, he is a United States Marine.

as we have seem it was really just an anti-Christian bigotry all along.

The #1 rule of politically-correct liberals is always the same: whatever is white, male, Christian hetero is the 'oppressor' and everybody else is part of the pet groups which are presumed to be 'victims' and must be coddled

That sounds like a reasonable compromise. The room would allow the Muslim students would be allowed to observe their religious holiday and would allow the students to not miss the whole school day. 

The school wouldn't make the non-Muslim students observe or pray with the Muslim students, but it allows the Muslim students to observe their religious holiday. That sounds like a fair and reasonable compromise to me.  

I don't like Muslims getting any preferential treatment anymore than you do, but this isn't going to convince me that a so-called "War on Christmas" is taking place. Don't you think it's a little too early to worry about something like this when summer hasn't even officially ended? Again, I don't like the preferential treatment for the Muslims, but come on. It's too early to be talking about his stuff.

Christmas is different, because it is a culturally American holiday -- has been celebrated by the majority here for generations. Easter, too, tho' we pretend now that it's only spring break.

To suddenly allow whole school districts in America to take off for holidays that are not culturally American would be another step toward shedding our unity as  Americans and joining the "one culture is as good as another" gang.

It's these baby steps toward acknowledging others (which really means diminishing our own heritage) that has led us to where we are today. Let's keep our traditions for another generation, if possible, and not be so quick to give them away. We owe it to our children and grandchildren.

As President Obama has correctly pointed out: [...]"that if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world."

Forget about the separation of church and state. As one of the largest Muslim countries in the world, we should have a Muslim Prayer Room in every school in the United States. 

If countries such as Indonesia, Pakistan and India that have a comparable Muslim population can have Muslim Prayer Rooms in schools, then the United States, with one of the largest Muslim populations in the world, should also have them.

So why are we deficient in Muslim Prayer Rooms? The answer is obvious! As President Obama and his supporters, including Former President Jimmy Carter and Former Comedian Bill Cosby have pointed out, white racist, probably consisting mainly of racist conservative Christians, have prevented schools from installing Muslim Prayer Rooms for their large Muslim student population. 

I know President Obama, Democrats, and their supporters in the media would agree with me when I say that these are the same white racist conservative Christians who are against providing health care to the poor and to illegal aliens[CORRECTION] undocumented workers, and who act like Racist Nazis at Townhall meetings and Tea Parties.

Interesting.  A prayer room for Muslim students.  What happened to the separation of religion and education, church and state?  Or did that only apply to the assault on Christianity in our schools, the elimination of nativity scenes, the conversion of labels such as 'Christmas Break' to 'Winter Break', or the deletion of the phrase 'under God' from our Pledge of Allegiance?

The simple answer is yes, it was only meant for an attack on our country's heritage.  The actual meaning of "Separation of Church and State," as written by Jefferson, was to prevent our government from interfering with the Church.  The attack occurred in the U.S. Supreme Court, 1947, and was successful.  The lie replaced Jefferson's meaning and became law. Refer to Wall Builders.

Before 1947, and several years after, the Bible was used for reading lessons and teaching in school.  Sunday Services were held in the Capitol building and twice Congress has ordered Bibles for its citizens.  Being "progressive" means forgetting all that.

He has already failed... his country.
