Public School Sings the Praises of Allah

A Colorado high school is making its school choir sing a muslim song praising Allah, but I bet you  haven't heard anything about this.  But we've heard plenty about how Christian institutions and conservatives are off their collective rockers for opposing Obama's mandate requiring religious institutions to offer contraceptive insurance coverage to their employees.  Does this seem like a double standard to anyone else?



In it's simplest terms, separation of church and state means that public schools can't favor one religion over another.  They can't display the 10 commandments, and they can't force their choir to sing muslim songs.  I can't think of a valid explanation for this, but some school personnel gave it their best try.  Check it out...

    Every Christmas we see stories in the news about nativity scenes not being allowed in public spaces. School children have to have WINTER parties and Celebrations. Yet, here we have a school choir singing a Muslim hymn and apparently no one but this student objected. Its easy to pick on Christians and their beliefs. They aren't going to blow us up when we go after them!
