"Judaism is not just a religion, it's a culture, also," Davis said. "I felt that the nativity scene was definitely promoting Christianity.

And Davis is an expert on Judaism and Christianity?

"It shouldn't necessarily be in the school if you don't go to a Catholic school," Reynolds said.

Apparently Jesus only means something to Catholics.

You know, perhaps a little "historical" education about the faith that is followed by the majority of Americans would benefit these students.

Get your kids out of the s*&t hole of public schools. Work two jobs if necessary. I do and it is worth it.

Hey, who is paying for that school and the salaries? I believe it's the taxpayer.

Kick the principal out on her keister.

Around the corner, a holiday display is complete just in time for the school's first holiday concert in 12 years.

Holiday? What holiday? Is it a Flag Day display and a Flag Day concert? Maybe a Veteran's Day display and concert? Maybe a Labor Day display and concert?

Hmmm... sure would be easier if they actually told which "holiday" they are talking about.

Officials said the school's superintendent will be meeting with parents to discuss their concerns and talk about what is the best way to represent all the different traditions during the holiday season.

Here's a wild idea . . . how about TEACHING THE KIDS SOMETHING instead of worrying about holiday decorations? That's why said kids have homes.

What an IDIOT! I wonder how such a dumbs**t got promoted to principal. They oughtta lock the doors on that school until new staff is hired. Better yet, close it permamently, and issue vouchers.

If this happened in the school my kids attend, there would be a storm of hellfire rained on the BOA, this likes of which they have never seen.

I cannot begin to express how ANGRY this makes me.

The parents MUST stand up and have her removed.

"Judaism is not just a religion, it's a culture, also," Davis said. "I felt that the nativity scene was definitely promoting Christianity."

Unstated premise: unlike Judaism, Islam, or pretty much any other religion in the world, Christianity has no distinctive identity. Rather, it is nothing but a set of intellectual premises that Christians are supposed to keep locked up inside their brains, and not allow to affect how they live their lives.

Hand me the barf bag, I can feel it coming up fast.

{Judaism is not just a religion, it's a culture, also," Davis said}

Chances are in the next few years, the school will probably display Islamic symbols during the Ramadan season.
