Maryland school district to strip references to religious holidays on calendar

In response to a request from Muslim leaders to include their holidays.

Future school calendars will now list the students' Christmas vacation as "winter break", the Easter vacation as "spring break." Days like Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur would simply be marked "no school for students and teachers."

Get ready:
quote:
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:
United States -- Muslim 1.0%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1%-2%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%
At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs:
Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%
From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population.
They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. ( United States ).
France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- Muslim 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%
Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad &Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions ( Paris --car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam - Mohammed cartoons).
Guyana -- Muslim 10%
India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 10-15%
After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning: Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%
At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare:
Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%
From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:
Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%
After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:
Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jordan -- Muslim 92%
Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
Palestine -- Muslim 99%
Syria -- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%
100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace -- there's supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:
Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
Somalia -- Muslim 100%
Yemen -- Muslim 99.9%
Of course, that's not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.
'Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel." Leon Uris, 'The Haj'
(MJ note: Leon Uris is a fictional character. It was the statement of the author of "The Haj" through that character. - Just posting this here for those that are unaware there is no real Leon Uris.)
It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average would indicate.

Then what will they call the actual spring break?

That seems to be the formulaic pattern.

My thoughts are the winners write the history.
Too bad though.
Leaning Forward I suppose.

I remember laughing when I heard they were removing pork products, piggy banks, and "The Three Little Pigs" from schools in the UK in ~2008. I guess we're next as we lay down under the American welcome mat.

I think he's dead on. You sure you read that correctly? What's your reasoning for saying he's wrong?

He says that removing those religious holidays brings them "no closer to equality".
Adding all religious holidays would be equal.
Removing all religious holidays is also equal.
Keeping some religious holidays but not others is not equal. So they are now "closer to equality".

Yes, but at the point of pissing off the other people whose holidays are now not recognized? That is more than understandable to me. As long as animosity is the indirect action of a direct action then I don't see how this is considered an "equality" thing.

It would seem that school is not closed on religious holidays in observance of the holiday. School is closed in observance of the fact that attendance would be ridiculously low on those religious holidays and the school system would lose money if school was in session.

He's the one who brought up equality. Not me. I'm just pointing out that he is completely wrong to say that this brings them "no closer to equality". It brings them directly to equality. He's completely wrong.

Meh. Stupid, but not that big a deal.
Turning Christmas into winter break is the only one that kinda irks me. Christmas is a large enough cultural event that it transcends religious boundaries.
For example, plenty of atheists celebrate Christmas; Or put another way, putting up a Christmas tree, putting up decorations and passing out Christmas gifts does not make you a Christian.
Just like if I eat apples and honey on Rosh Hashanah, that doesn't make me jewish.
For Christians, it is an important (though not the most important) religious holiday and we need to remember the "reason for the season." But we are deluding ourselves to think that is doesn't have cultural significance beyond that.

I recommend we add "Whacking Day" and replace snakes with Muslims and Liberals.

You don't see the slippery slope here? A few Muslim outsiders change how an entire school district recognizes a cultural tradition? What's next?
