Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I see your point but what if a Christian student would refuse to go to school on Sunday because of church? Would they even dare to ask for it?

I know of a rugby player who refuses to play on Sunday because it conflicts with his religious belief. and while it will not sound plausible that I can't remember his name, I swear I am not making it up.

But I think there is room for give and take -- Muslim students and kids aren't refusing to go to school. They are just being excused for prayers. So demanding to be let out of school all day would be overkill, don't you think?
