UK Schoolgirl Sticks to Crucifix

[Abu Zakariya]

People are told that they should refer the Christmas holidays as "winter holiday" in order not to offend muslims

Oh, come on. Like that could be the only reason (if it's true in the first place). Couldn't it be that they don't want to offend Muslims as well as Jews, Hindus etc?

Everything seems to be our fault.

It's called bending over backwards to keep in muslims good books for going to war in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Christmas threads were deleted from this forum and any pictures of anything Christian are deleted from this forum which clearly shows there are strong feelings towards Christianity from muslims. There aren't as such from other faiths.

Just because we don't want to join in the Christimas celebration in an Islamic forum, doesn't mean that we want to prevent others from celebrating it in their societies.

Do you have any proof, by the way, for your theory or is it just speculation just like your theory about the conspiracy in the Brittish schools?

You don't need proof. You'd be dumb to need proof to be convinced. Someone posted something about Christmas decorations being taken down from offices, it might have been me. Take a look at it if you can find it.

Aren't we steering off topic a bit? I can see this thread closing anytime soon.

I'm not disputing the claim that such things have occured. But I'm not convinced that it's because of us. Not everything has to be our fault. Maybe they don't want to offend people of other faiths, period.

We don't have to steer off topic. Just tell me why they let the school children wear crucifixes on badges, if isn't about the jewelry but instead about the Muslims, as you've claimed?
If it was about the crucifix, they would've banned it period and wouldn't disguise it in a jewelry ban which has existed for some years now, I think even before the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.
