Pig Stories Banned
Posted by Peter W. Schramm
This is priceless! "A West Yorkshire head teacher has banned books containing stories about pigs from the classroom in case they offend Muslim children.
The literature has been removed from classes for under-sevens at Park Road Junior Infant and Nursery School in Batley." No comment necessary. No coffee, take a shot of Jack.(Thanks to Andrew Sullivan.)

Hmmmm....my 17-year old has decided that stories about whales (Moby Dick?) offend her religious beliefs. My 14-year-old son has strong opinions on being forced to do science experiments in class, as he believs all the world is magic.....
