Jell-O, Santa threatened
Chicago Sun-Times | Submitted by: Jethro Bodine
"So long, Halloween parade. Farewell, Santa's gift shop. The holiday traditions are facing elimination in some Oak Lawn schools this year after complaints that the activities are offensive, particularly to Muslim students."

I'm so fucking sick of muslim's saying people are intolerant of them. You don't come over to another country and bitch because they have a different culture than you. I don't think it would work very well if I went over to Pakistan and complained that they don't have any baby Jesus manger's during X-mas. I think all western countries should officially ban mosque, praying towards mecha(sp?), and wearing any of the stupid outfits, under penalty of death. That or just make visa entries much harder to obtain, whichever is more humane ;)

Fuck the ragheads, if they don't like it, move! Don't want to eat pork, etc, don't eat it, but don't tell me I can't, assholes, same with the holidays, don't fucking like it, skip that day at school.

No, the US was founded by many kinds of people, some very religious, who came together to believe everybody has the right to their own religion. Holiday decorations are unquestionably a part of American culture. If you're offended by a countrys culture, don't fucking move there.

Allright, the gloves are off! WHY are we pandering to this small group of 7th century psycos? (Pardon my spelling) SO WHAT if a tiny minority is "offended?" I am offended every,single day, by what I hear on the radio, see on the news,& yet, who's bending over backwards for ME? No-one. Oh, but we CAN'T let the MUSLIMS be offended, right? The World as we know it would cease to exist, I'm sure. Look, there was a lot of things in school that "offended" me, like homework, PE, arrogant jocks, & not being able to take off on Jewish Holidays. "Particulary to Muslim students." Hey, MUSLIMS! HELLO! This is AMERICA, not whatever 3rd-world shithole you emmigrated from. YOU have to adapt to OUR way of life, not the other way around & feel free to leave if you don't like it. If there are any Rotteneers in the Minneapolis area, PLEASE, I beg you, take you dog(s) to the airports there & bathe them in the so-called footbaths paid for with YOUR money. THIS CRAP HAS GOT TO STOP! I am sick unto death of these desert-dwellers seeking to come to America, & refuse to become Americans. As a Rotten sidebar-in my job as the King of All Dial Tone(Tel-Com Technician) if I know I am going on-site to a Muslim customer,I'll fuck w/'em by asking if I can heat-up my lunch in the microwave, (they always say yes) then after lunch declaring loudly," Boy! Those Pork Chops were great!" I've done similer pranks w/snotty Hindus, by walking in, with a bacon cheeseburger, & stating, sorry, gotta eat lunch 1st." Bottom line? WE have NO obligation to adjust to them, rather, since THEY chose to move here, THEY have to adjust to US. As some may have gathered, I am annoyed with this story. Very much so.

theallseeingear, I agree with you that America shouldn't be about religion...but I don't see how the fuck Jello and Santa have much do with Christianity. I know Saint Nick and all that, but now Santa is just a marketing mascot. And what about Jello, is it the congealed blood of Jesus? Also Muslims have had this same problem in most European countries, it's actually just now traveling over to the states.

YOU don't like MY country? Off you go. This PC crap makes me wanna vomit. Un-PC Facts - ALL involved w/the tragedy of 9/11, were , oh gee whiz, gosh, MUSLIMS. I wish all Mulims were sterile. & the rest would die. Islam is a cancer on the body of the world, & it needs to be elimated. Bomb Mecca, & Medina. Show those camel fuckers we mean business. FUCK Allah. Bogus religion, sub-human adherants. I apologize for nothing. FUCK ISLAM. MOHAMMED CAN SUCK MY DICK,. Yes, I don't approve of this "Religion of Peace."

Or hatred of Muslims has everything to do with Muslims, and nothing to do with Jews. Most of us can't stand Jews, either. I've never heard of school taking pork off their menus because Jews were offended. Even heavily Jewish neighborhoods had public Christmas displays.

I agree that these holidays no longer really have any religious significance. However, why don't they just remove every "holiday", no time off for the beliefs or customs of any one. Make school 5 days a week from September until June. That should satisfy all "cultures" and "belief systems" (in theory)

As a Pagan, I am not thrilled with many Christian based traditions in this country, but I don't bitch and moan. It is not up to the majority to pander to my beliefs. They should tolerate them, sure, but I don't feel I have the right to impinge on the beliefs of the majority. That being said, they are public schools meant to educate ALL the children. If some of those kids have special dietary concerns, REASONABLE measures should be taken to accommodate them. However, we can't rob Peter to pay Paul. Give a free absence to children who are not to participate on celebration days, and include their religious festivals as well. I'm sure the kids won't mind an added party.

It is used to make them nice and shiny. Incidentally, over here in England we call "jell-o" "jelly" ( "Jelly" is called "jam") because, frankly, jell-o is a pretty dumb thing to call anything.

Wow! I didn't realize that the children were force-fed Jello. Well, good thing they got rid of it because God forbid that they are tempted to eat it. How about pies, cookies and other items that are cooked with crisco or lard? Halloween and Santa has nothing to do with Christianity, so a school can technically have parties and whatnot. These are part of our culture, however, and hardly 'offensive' in any way. It doesn't call for killing people, it doesn't oppress people and no one is forcing the children to participate. If they believe in their religion enough, then the parents should teach their children that some things are *worth* not participating in as a dedication to their religion. Use some discipline, don't force others simply because you don't want to 'feel bad.' I find the headware women wear as offensive, but I'm not going to petition the government to force all muslim women to not wear the headwear. Why? Because the headwear doesn't impact me, reduce my freedoms or otherwise threaten me. Kind of like Santa Clause: he might be offensive to some, but the symbol is harmless and part of a winter celebration. What ever happened to tolerance?

History taught The Jews learned an important lesson: if you piss of the people in your host country, they will retaliate i.e. The Holocaust. Most of them assimilate well in public life, yet retain their old culture and habits at home and in their community. The Muslims have yet to learn this valuable lesson. The smart ones will assimilate while the rest will suffer the consequences of the Second Holocaust.
