Re: christmas at rhyddings or not

There are Christmas trees of sorts at Moorhead - sort of weird modern things but at least they are there.

I think you'll find that it isn't Muslims who object to Christmas or are offended by it (after all they do revere Jesus as a prophet) it's the over zealous PCness which has taken over this country and which is actually having the opposite effect from the intended.

I also agree that it's unfair that the Muslim children have extra holidays with Eids as well as Christmas and Easter, yet the non-Muslim children must go to school at Eid or they would be chased by the truant officers. Why can't they all have a day off? That would be equality.

When Emz was little she announced one day that she wanted to convert to Islam and when I asked her why it was because her best friend, a Muslim girl, had more holidays than her.
