MIZZOU WICCAN HOLIDAY HOT MESS!!!



An effort to accommodate diverse religious beliefs on the Mizzou campus has turned into an embarrassment.

Take a look:

Fox News: No exams on Wiccan, Pagan holidays at University of Missouri?

Missourian attempts to clarify: MU holiday guide intended to inform, not inflame

It doesn't work . . .

Newsmax.com runs with it: Missouri University Honors Wiccan Holidays

Yahoo offers some nice detail with a definite snarky slant: University of Missouri Professors, Staff Given Guide for Religious Holidays

And so, once again diversity fails by attempting inclusiveness of alternative religions that don't have as many middle-class followers and therefore aren't as legitimate.

I swear everyone and their fucking dingbat causes think they need a special place and day for them.

If it isn't going to be a holiday that can be shared by all I then say what the hell good is it.

I'm saying if everyone can't be off or get Presidents Day or any of the other so called federal holidays as a paid holiday then fuck it nobody should.

All religious beliefs are insane affectations. They are not true. Its time we stopped tolerating religion. Instead of trying to accommodate everyone's insane affectation, a place of higher learning should have the courage to say no, its not true, we're not playing these games anymore.

I say we have a holiday where all women go topless.

Then we could see what Glazer been seeing on Kelly.

MU can go fuck themselves for anymore of my donations or financial support.

This just in MU's fear of losing money has caused them to tell the Wiccans to go fuck themselves (or else come up with more cash).

Calm down guys, it is just a guide for professors so they know when religious holidays fall on the calendar.

UMKC has such a big chinese and chinese-american population and coupled with the dragon boat races I wouldn't schedule anything the day after Chinese New Year either.

I assume MU has a similarly large Chinese student population.

My bank also publishes one of these that show all the religious holidays, it is called a calendar.

I think you all should belong to the "Religion of Chuck". It will require very little time in church, but an occasional glass of Sky Vodka with the deity.

When you are with the deity, the deity will need a brief amenity concerning the weather at which time the deity will nod and they you will say, "I got this guy's tab" to the bartender.

This will gaurantee you a place in heaven.

I swear.

Thanks, the deity is looking forward to seeing you, soon, like later today.
