Why I banned prayer in my school | Katharine Birbalsingh

[Your Old Comrade]

Katharine Birbalsingh, otherwise known as Britain's strictest headteacher, explains why she banned prayer at her school in her first broadcast interview since the controversial move.

I have mixed feelings about her. She is obviously very dedicated, hard-working and determined, but at the same time a little too ideologically-driven and, in any case, there is something more than a little phony about a person who loves to shout about Britishness despite spending much of her life in Canada and speaking with an odd Transatlantic accent.

I pray by so called "hours" (Chasoslov in Russian), it's like 7-8 cycles of 5-15 minutes prayers during whole day, in Orthodoxy we don't do it "on public", so for prayer we find a quiet place, room, so we can dedicate this time to God. I never had problems with it. In most of hospitals, train and bus stations, airports, universities you have at least a room or even a chapel for this, but anyway even without it everyone may find a place if he really wants to pray.

I see Muslims praying at their workplace sometimes, I really don't give a damn, that's their right to profess their false faith, I don't like cucks who get winded up by such things (usually such people hate Christians praying, too and moan like the bells of the church jingling in the morning annoy them).

If I was a student of this Mrs, I won't give a damn about her restrictions. She's not the law and if law restricted it, I will break the law, too.

It's mainly for Islamic students, it seems. I think that every school should have a chapel and there should be no arrangements made for Islamic migrants. This is a Christian country.

Stupid b*tch, is the UK or the US better today than say 50 years ago? I not only had prayer but weekly bible classes as a kid.

Oh and we sung Confederate songs also. Parents didn't have to worry some perv would try to get kids to cut their dick off either.
