Controversy Erupts After School Offers Muslims Special Room
MASON, Ohio -- Northeast of Cincinnati, school officials in Mason have taken some heat after two Muslim boys were offered a separate room during the lunch hour.
Superintendent Kevin Bright said it was a "fasting room." He said their parents didn't want the two high school students to have to watch classmates eat while they were fasting for Ramadan.
But school board member Jennifer Miller calls it a "prayer room." At a board meeting earlier this week, she protested, saying America is a Christian nation, not a Muslim nation.
And, a Mason parent said if one group is allowed to pray in school, everyone else should be, too.
The superintendent noted that the two students never even used the room but went to the library during lunch.
I hope the time has arrived for CHRISTIANS TO PUSH BACK & PUSH BACK HARD AGAINST THE DISCRIMINATION THEY HAVE ENDURED...
