[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not going to get all up in arms about this. I would not have a problem if they added a holiday and just eliminated the absenteeism pretext. Take one less professional development day or take one day away from "Winter" break. [b]What I don't like is that the debate has devolved into we can't celebrate your religion if you don't celebrate mine so nobody celebrates anything. [/b] I think we can and should celebrate and acknowledge the major religions in this country at a minimum for what they are, an important part of our cultural heritage in this country. The attitude that my display of religion offends you is what bothers me. I think at a basic level that is pretty disrespectful. [/quote] Who is stopping you from celebrating your religious holidays, and how are they stopping you?[/quote]
