Bending Over to Far
The below linked article is probably on of the more bizarre things that I have heard of a school district doing.
A British School system has change the name/story of the Three Little Pigs to the Three Little Puppies. The biggest problem with this, not even the Muslims in the area of London where the school to this action were objecting to the play/story in it's traditional name.
I just don't understand. Are people at the school so very un-aware of their surroundings that they would do this. And why would Muslim's be upset about the name of the show anyway? At the very worst, like Jews, they are forbidden from EATING pigs, not see alligorical plays about them.
