Schoolboys Get Detention for Refusing to Pray to Allah

Once again I cannot believe that a post that has nothing to do with the report got the most stars in this entire thread!?




This post? What?

We do not even know what religion this "teacher" is, what does this report have to do with this odd comment?

As far as I can tell, from reading the report, no muslims pushed to see how far they could go, it had nothing to do with 7/7, this is not about survival, you almost sound like a Nazi...

Well.. I've learned this already but.. Stars don't necessarily have anything to do with the more valid and applicable posts. Not to go too far off topic here but when I see people getting like 10 stars for posting things like "Good post!! Starred and Flagged!" it makes absolutely no sense. The star system is decent but it has it's downsides

And people are not necessarily completely unbiased to individual members here either. That means that one person making a substantial, profound post may not get as much recognition as the more high profile ATS members making a post that has almost nothing to do with the thread or posting something that could have been handled with a quick U2U.. I think for the most part all the mods understand this but the system in place is pretty good for the most part. People giving other people praise and points is a great part of ATS but the point/star distribution isn't exactly without the biases and preferences of individual people.

I have no idea what you are blethering about, our establishment is filled with the hard left, tony mcnulty admitted the government is filled with ex trots!

Hypocrites that they are, enjoying the fruits of capitalism and venting their marxist spleen on cultural issues


The hard left is WELL beyond much of the soft european left

It's like we don't even live in the same country!

This is where it begins! i bet the teacher was a white leftist, they love islam and facism.

When I was in High School and Middle School, my teachers would suspend me for not participating in Christmas and Easter related activities. When my sisters were in choir, they were suspended for not singing songs about Jesus being God.

Before each football game, the teachers would do a mass prayer, making everyone in the bleachers stand and bow their heads to pray to Jesus.

When any of my siblings and I graduated from middle school to college, every single graduation ceremony started off with a sermon from Christian preacher.

All this, and it was a public school.

I'd like to see the story in some other source besides the Daily Mail - a newspaper that doesn't even list the names of the journalists that write the stories. It's a bit of a rag. I'm not discounting the story, but I'm not entirely confident that it hasn't been sensationalized somehow, knowing the nature of the Daily Mail.
