re: Texas AG sued to keep a Bible quote in school. Now he’s troubled by Muslim prayers.

quote:

---

I wouldn't have used it, even if it was available. Even when I was a believer, I prayed on my own accord in my own time; that's not unique.

But shouldn't those believers that do care to be allowed to? Dude. You arguing that Muslims should be given special time, space to practice their religion, and Christians should not be given the same right.

Lets take a look at your assertion that they are "required" to pray at certain times, though.

LINK

Fajr (pre-dawn): This prayer starts off the day with the remembrance of God; it is performed before sunrise.

Dhuhr (noon): After the day's work has begun, one breaks shortly after noon to again remember God and seek His guidance.

'Asr (afternoon): In the late afternoon, people are usually busy wrapping up the day's work, getting kids home from school, etc. It is an important time to take a few minutes to remember God and the greater meaning of our lives.

Maghrib (sunset): Just after the sun goes down, Muslims remember God again as the day begins to come to a close.

'Isha (evening): Before retiring for the night, Muslims again take the time to remember God's presence, guidance, mercy, and forgiveness.

Only one of these fall in the school hours. Noon. That could easily be taken care of by allowing the Muslims to have their lunch hour at Noon. I mean...that is when the school expected the Christians to pray right? During their lunch period?

I don't understand why you fight so hard to protect the Muslims rights to practice their religion and fight so hard to prevent the Christians from doing the same.
