gresch, full agreement. I'm not religious so to speak but I never understood why when I was in school, everyone got Christmas vacation off but then Jewish students could take additional days (and not be marked absent) yet I wasn't off.

Seemed like such a simple discrimination, but, nobody attempted to sue anyone over it. Some items you just accept.
