Not half!
I have a few points to make
Given that they've all probably been eating non-halal horsemeat for years why sack the dinner lady?
Anyway, I thought the animal rights lobby were going to argue against "inhumane" methods of slaughter. We've already seen in other spheres that "rights" trump religion when push comes to shove, so you are absolutely correct. The lady should be reinstated and the parents told to go and find another school for their kids if they don't like it. Either that or provide them with packed lunches if they want to be so damn fussy. No dount the kids will be on free school dinners so the parents won't want to give them packed lunches. Whay should the taxpayer foot the bill for the eating choices of parents who like to foist such choices on their kids? We need to start telling they groups straight that they can take it or leave it. When in Rome do as the Romans do and all that.

I think only about 25% of people in the USA believe in Natural Selection so it doesn’t surprise me.

In the interests of balance, there are very few, if any, muslim countries where human evolution is accepted let alone taught. I am no expert but AFAIK orthodox jews reject Darwinism and Buiddhists wouldn't teach it as to them it's largely an irrelevance. At least in the US evolution is taught, even if there are a worrying number of nutjobs increasingly challenging that.

I don't doubt it at all. I suppose the thing is that we sort of expect the US to be a tad more educated/intelligent.

He makes Leeds finish 5th. He then laughs at the unbelievers who so arrogantly pick the Chosen Ones in the heathen ritual that is Club Call.

Not to in any way condone halal methods, but from what I've heard from some sources (the organisation I work for organises meat inspectors etc) some of the mega modern abattoirs shouldn't be imagined to be sensational places when it comes to animal welfare, simply by dint of how industrialised the process has become.
Again, it's a reason I'm happy to pay a little more to get my meat direct from farmers most of the time; cutting out assorted middle men and therefore ending up with far more of my spend actually going on the piece of meat and not a chain of businesses that all need their profit.

| Beats me why Kirky bothers asking the opinions of us mere mortals when he has a hotline to 'Big J' himself. Why not ask him? I suppose it must get a tad irritating when he's always right though! It must be crap playing Cluedo with him too.

How would you slaughter an animal if you couldn't just nip down to the butchers/supermercado to buy meat?

| Do the Jewish kids have to eat Halal meat rather than Kosher meat?
Maybe schools should be made to have separate kitchens/dining rooms to cater for each religious group in the school?
Better still, why not remove religion totally from our schools and feed them all the same stuff. If the parents don't like it then they should provide their kids with a packed lunch.
Why do these idiots keep arguing over who believes what version of a fairy story?
