It means it's allowed...
Besides Goober nailing you square on the head....
That is the weak way out of actually having to debate the topic.
Way to go EAO.
Your comment concerning goober is not understood.
and just to add, if it came from goober, it ain't worth shyte, IMNSHO

Ya, what do I know, I'm just a silly Islamophobe, because I have a problem with one religion being given preferential treatment....
Your attitude towards Islam has what to do with goober?

What attitude?
When they didn't, the 400 plus Muslim students would go to a near by Mosque at lunch time for their prayers. Problem was, like typical teens, many would not return to school afterwards. The school decided to do something about this and came up with allowing the students to use the cafeteria.
So, we have to have gender discrimination against women in our schools because some kids skip class.
Oh, that makes sense. The Imam has enough control over the little twerps to make them go to prayers, but can't get them to go back to school? Put the onus on the kids and the Imam, stop forcing the girls to accept discrimination IN OUR SCHOOLS just because Muslim kids have no discipline.
You know what we really need in schools. Book learnin.

It would help if the schools did not stop issuing text books unless someone really needs one, everything is online now. Libraries down here have cut hours, maybe someday they will just close up.

That, in all honesty and sincerity, makes me sad. The school library was my first real exposure to a wonderful world of books. I was a voracious reader as a child.
So long as that school allows Bingo in the evening....I don't see any kind of problem...
Since it's not a Catholic school, there is the possibility that it would.
Would be?
....or would Not be?
would NOT be. Bingo is a form of gambling, therefore it is not allowed to be used for fund raising like it was in the past.
No?????

ummmm....no... The Catholic Church still says no, regardless of what permits a city may be dispensing.
No mention of Church there...hence my post
I checked and not once did I make any mention of the Catholic church.......
With that logic all mosques should be classed as illegal due to discrimination against women. I can tell you how the SCOC would rule. Send me a few hundred for the answer.
Actually, you missed the point. With that logic, the government should not be providing mosques in schools. If you want to be a discriminatory group, do so on your own turf, not as part of the school system.
I think that the Human Rights Commission should rule on whether our school system can have such functions that force girls to sit in back, and prevent girls who are menstruating from attending. What do you think about that? What if we disallowed any girls who were menstruating from attending math class? Doesn't that make sense? Their blood might upset the math gods.
I understand what you are saying, and I can understand working with religions for good reasons.
What bothers me is that, by officially sanctioning this in a school, during school hours, we are telling girls that menstruation is evil, ungodly, and unclean, and that girls are secondary to boys. I believe that runs counter to what we are supposed to believe.
And that is why education is needed. It is an affront to many who believe in equality, but the facts are that is part of their Religion.
...If it was catholics, I'd have a problem with it.
The issue is, public schools have been off limits to all religious commitments.
