Up to ten Orthodox Jewish students who should be sitting a rescheduled state examination in English this Saturday (the Sabbath) are having their religious observances facilitated by the state. They are being quarantined on the Saturday and being permitted to sit the exam on Sunday instead.

What are your thoughts on this? Appeasement? Pragmatism? Right? Wrong?

I don't give a shit either tbh. No skin off my nose. If it's no major headache and it doesn't cost the state too much then I think it's totally fine. Our constitution is one that safeguards religious freedom and pluralism with respect to your choice of religion. It was the state's fuckup that the exam had to be rescheduled anyway.

Haven't seen an appeasement thread in awhile. Lowing?

Not a problem to me either. Respecting peoples religion and views. It will cost the state tho.

Sounds fair to me. I doubt theres a secret Jewish agenda to slowly turn European schools Jewish.
"inch by inch" as some commentators may say.

It's not about Muslims, he won't post.

I don't really see the advantage that could be gained, I don't give a shit either.

kinda reminds me of the joke..

A man is walking through the markets area of Belfast (a renowned place of sectarian murder in Belfast) when he's grabbed from behind and a knife put to his throat, this voice says "are ye Protestant or Catholic? think carefully before you answer 'cause i'll slit your fuckin' throat if you get it wrong." thinking quickly on his feet the man answers "neither. i'm Jewish!!". "fuck me" says the voice " I must be the luckiest Palestinian in Belfast the night"

Ps.. i have no problem with that accommodation

If you have followed Cams posts the last 4 years it's quite obvious what he means about religious appeasement whereas others think we are only appeasing Muslims this article says otherwise ...

keep the jews quarantined forever

but really, I don't really give a shit, nobody will make a big deal anyway, Jews are so 20th century (and 19th, 18th, 17th...etc..), you can only get pissed off at Muslims these days

i dont understand what you are talking about. people here are making a bigger deal over an abortion doctor than a US soldier getting killed by a muslim on US soil.

it should be "pay-to-pray" all the way, imho. after all state is supposed to be separated from church, right? imo, it should go all the way down to the personal level of the citizens - why the hell should the state facilitate anybody's religious needs? let the fuckers cover their religion-specific expences themselves. need a separate room to bang your head against the floor? need a goat to sacrifice on a religious holiday? need exams moved because your religious nonsence dogma forbids to move your arse on <insert the disired date here>? - no problem, everything should be accounted for, ready and available... for an appropriate price.
