<sigh> never discuss politics or religion. I should think it would be
a whole lot easier to integrate muslim children into a nativity play--
afer all, they do recognize Jesus as a great prophet--than other
religions or for that matter kids from atheistic backgrounds.
This is one thing that we're (Americans) good at, even if some of us
do get shrill and take things waaayyy too far over the top. You won't
see a Nativity Play in an American public school. Period.
June, haven't you seen Love Actually yet? You'll love the end.
