Now, wouldn't that have been a good excuse for the muslims to use?

I can't imagine anyone making these things up, they must be true, we need an afterlife and God knows, we deserve it!
We all know sheet happens, much easier to blame it on Devine will, than our own mistakes,

They did not support the schools dress and uniform policy, but stated that these religious beliefs should be respected.

If these boys wish to follow slavishly the actions of the prophet, then they should be in a school which accommodates this practice.
Every body knows your right Margaret, but its just another example of people coming to live in our country wanting use to change and fit in with what they want, I've only two words to say about that the first one starts with an f and the second ones off

People have been coming into this Country for thousands of years, we just don't recognise the latest invasion or how successful it is because, we haven't been beaten on Home ground since 1066!

Re: School Beards.

According to one of the parents "the school should change the rules".
From the BBC website:BBC News - Two bearded pupils in Accrington sent home from school

The boy complied with the request, but his father said the school should "change the rules".

"There are a lot of Muslims who live near the school as well as Christians," he said.

"A lot of parents are worried about this."

About a third of the 750 pupils at the school are Muslim.

How long before the rules are changed?
