Question:
- Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – November 30, 2004 RAMADAN AND CHRISTMAS IN THE SCHOOLS Catholic League president William Donohue lists what some public schools recently did to accommodate Muslim students during Ramadan. Donohue concludes: "The degree of tolerance that these public schools have shown for Muslim students during Ramadan is encouraging. Maybe now we can get the schools to stop with this ‘Winter Holiday’ nonsense and get down to celebrating Christmas with a concert that features a nativity scene and the singing of ‘Silent Night.’"
Why? I am unaware of any Roman Catholic obligation to participate in Christmas plays and sing Christmas carols during school time in December. Without such an obligation his demand for Silent Night and nativity scenes is just rabble rousing. Which I think is the sole objective of many so-called Christian leaders. JohnN
