Muslim Parents At U.K. Christian School Force Coed Gym Club Off Site
I'm beginning to wonder if there's anything that isn't considered un-Islamic to the fundamentalist crowd, which seems to be growing in leaps and bounds all over the world. To them, the most inoffensive of things becomes highly offensive, which then leads to outcries, and eventually into demands for whatever happens to be offending them to be done away with.

Take gymnastics, for example. An independent Christian school for girls , in south London, that happens to be devoted to:
unleashing creativity and innovationcelebrating multi-cultural understanding and respect'
celebrating diversity and individuality within a culture of praise and encouragement that promotes well-being, happiness and success
has been forced to disallow the Shirley Gymnastics Club from using the facilities for their after-school programme, because the parents of some Muslim students balked at the fact there were boys in the gym club. The 250 members (36 of whom are boys) are now desperately searching for a new space for their classes. Although the school did offer the Club administrators the option of starting an hour and a half later (at 6:30 pm instead of 5 pm) when all the little Muslim girls would be safely ensconced in their homes, ending classes at 9:30 pm would be prohibitive for the younger members. So they declined.
This is a majority Christian School, that just so happens to embrace diversity allowing Muslims to attend, since when do the minority have the right to make demands? Since when did the 'minority rule'?
So once again, the majority caves in to the minority. Ridiculous!
