Hi miss penni, If I remember correctly you sing at those concerts don't you? I would like to hear you sing or play an instrument or whatever.

I am not talking about forbidding Christian music at the holiday concerts here. The last one that I attended was at least 90% Christian and even included Christian songs that had nothing to do with Christmas like "How great Thou art". We are talking about the choir here. The choir director is very religious and she uses religious songs year 'round. Our principal hands out Bibles in front of the school to students as they arrive at school. The football coach requires the players to pray before each game and practice or they are off of the team.

I would like to hear music from different faiths but I have never heard them at a public school, have you? Do you seriously think that a half dozen Muslim songs could be sung at a public school without all hell breaking loose?

What is wrong with the religious songs being sung in one of the many tax exempt cathedrals that Dallas has, where the sound would be much better, and the audience chose to be there?

Are you saying that the only worthwhile Christmas music is Christian? Come on now miss penni, I'm not a music expert, but surely there is good secular stuff out there. How about that one by "Alvin and the Chipmunks" for instance?
