Dozens of school boards dedicated to christian education/indoctrination.

Christian holy days recognized by the government as holidays.

Laws specifically designed with a religion in mind (free parking near churches on sundays!).

Why should one group have it's holy day(sunday for christianity) honoured, but it's a problem when another group allows an imam to come into a lunch hall and lead a prayer at no cost to the school, on their holy day(friday)?

Can you give me an example of any Country on the surface of this planet that does NOT have "holy days recognized by the government as holidays"?

I don't need to.

The point is, you're showing favoritism to one group over another. Why wouldn't you give equal consideration to all people?

Way to ignore the rest though. Makes your argument that much stronger.

dude, just scroll and read. there's nothing you're about to cover that hasn't been argued about for the past 5 or 6 years.

think of it as a FAQ thread.

Who am I showing favouritism to, and over which group(s)???

My position is that there should be no religious ceremonies or services of any kind, in any publicly funded schools in Canada.

Your point that Canada, as a country founded on Judaeo Christian principles celebrates Christian holidays is a non starter ......... all countries in the world celebrate their traditional religious holidays, Canada is no difference, it's part of our founding culture and heritage.

Cool- so why are you freaking out about a lunch time event at a school that costs taxpayers nothing, but don't seem to care at all about the massive system of religious school boards in Ontario, that actually cost taxpayers?
