British parents looking to see their children in a traditional Christmas play are fuming after a school decided to cancel the performance because it conflicts with the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha, the U.K.s Telegraph newspaper reported.
Officials at the Greenwood Junior School in Nottingham decided to postpone the annual holiday performance because it would have been too difficult to have both the Christmas and Eid celebrations together, The Telegraph reported.
But parents told The Telegraph that they were originally told the performance was canceled because Muslim children wanted to celebrate Eid with their families, making it difficult to schedule a date for the performance.

Consider holding a Christmas play at your church, and a Shakespeare play, or an algebra exam review, at school.

Perhaps the Muslim parents said, “Celebrate Eid, or we’ll cut off your heads!” We wouldn’t want to offend them, would we?

It has become obvious these groups know exactly the reaction they are going to get and that is why they do it. Just like a little kid who needs attention.

Its time Christians woke up.
There is no such thing as a “harmless” Muslim.
There are just Muslims who want to blow us up to take over and Muslims who want to turn our own laws against us and use THEM to take over.

If only we would celebrate the man who started the liberation of Europe from the Muslims.

I went to Texas Road House for dinner last night. There's a beautiful Christmas tree in the lobby, pork ribs and beer on the menu. Not a muzzie in sight.

Why can’t they hold a Muslim play also? It can portray Mohammed preaching to the infidels, followed by the Infidels laughing at him, followed by Mohammed and his henchmen killing the Infidels. Happy Eid-al-Adha children!

London is(was) probably my favorite city. We visited a few years ago at Christmas time and it was magical but I’ll never go back. The whole landscape has changed and it’s not pretty.

My last trip to the UK was April 1999. It was indeed my LAST trip. Not even the more favorable currency rates could get me back there now.
