#1 Somehow I get the feeling that if a Christian or Jew were to ask to get out early on Friday to attend prayer they would be told to Fuck off.

Only in Seattle.

American ~~Communist~~ Civil Liberties Union of Washington spokesman Doug Honig said a series of U.S. Supreme Court cases justifies the Seattle district's efforts.

Amazing how the ACLU can site 'seperation of Church and State' on one breath when its christians and this crap when its Muslims....

Adan said that Nathan Hale teachers and administrators had been very helpful in providing a room for prayer and allowing students to miss class, but, he said, it can be a problem elsewhere.

Yeah - if you are non-muslim and are not willing to blow the school up your shit-outta-luck.

#2 As an Irish Catholic, if I tried to press for St. Patricks day off school so I could celebrate St. Pat for ridding the Emerald Isle of serpents, I'd be called a nut. And that just happens once a year.
