How does this have anything to do with the topic at hand?

Are you literally retarded?

Have you spent much times with minorities?

Your whole attitude is that of a white person, which affects your judgement of non-white society and of that which did not originally come from white society.

My attitude is that of a person who loathes superstition and having it forced on children in school.

Schools are not there to provide a captive audience for infecting them with your superstitions.

That's what's great about the Internet. Nobody knows you're a racist.

Seriously? A Moslem praying on their own in public is not forcing it upon anyone. Anyone who finds offense is rather close-minded and backwards.

If I can accept Moslems and even Hindus praying in public despite being a Christian whose faith was preceded by centuries of genocide based on religious differences, it really shows the character of someone who does not even have that history and actually desires to stop them from doing so.

Wow, Polaris. That was racist. You're certainly allowed your opinion, but you can go fuck yourself for it too. What a load of shit this turned into.
