I heard this on the radio.
This adminstration makes me wanna puke.
Everyday.
Repeatedly.
The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

So what's the big deal? She'll just have to schedule it and use her vacation time. Unless she has to do it right now and wants it paid for nothing. In which case its BS and the mandatory trip to mecca says nothing about having to do it during school hours.

Apperently I'm about to get flamed for this...................
I don't see what's wrong..
She DID Ask for UNpaid leave. I can see the uproar if she was demanding to get paid leave.
It is a technical violation of the EEO act.
Letter of the law says they were supposed to let her do it .......... a nearly 50 year old law at that. has nothing to do with obama.
I think allowing "reasonable religious" exercise wouldn't include having to pay a substitute for 3+ weeks b/c she decided she'd rather worship a child rapist than work.
Would a scientologist be able to take off a few years and travel to Xenu?
She could do it over Christmas Vacation.

The rapist comment is kind of ridiculous. I think the main point is that her request wasn't reasonable. Personally, I couldn't really care if they are muslim or whatever, and people can worship whoever they want, but asking for that much time, when it really didn't require it, is unreasonable.

well if thats the case then I have at least 3 causes for suit.
Unfortunately they can deny any leave except FEMLA.
If the unpaid leave would cause undue hardship, they can deny it (as I understand it) so long as it is NOT based on religious or ethnic reasons.
ie: Reason denied is, you are (whatever)
Can you imagine if everyone at the hospital took off for a religious holiday?
I kinda want her to win her case.
Imagine all of the service members, Civilians overseas not allowed to celebrate their religious holiday with their family.
There will be so many lawsuits, They will have to increase your taxes to more than your income.
