pee on the bible will ye

An Australian boy urinated on a bible and was kicked out of school. It seems reasonable to me, and then I read this:

THE father of a Muslim boy expelled for urinating on the Bible, burning pages from it then spitting on it has lashed out at the school, saying it failed to protect and control his son.

I thought it odd that the father would blame the school for his son's behavior. The father, Omar Cukovic, should take responsibly for his son's actions. After all, a public school cannot be held accountable for the actions of its students. Kids will misbehave.

But then I read this:

In disgust, he has withdrawn all of his five children who attend the college and says they will no longer go to an Islamic school.

Say what? It happened in an Islamic school? The father is pissed too. His children, including piss boy Ibrahim Cukovic, are on their way to a public school. Apparently the father teaches his children tolerance and respect for other religions - could it be the stores of Muslims intolerance are slightly biased? We now have at least one story contradicting popular perception.

Note to Ibrahim - in America pissing on the cross is called art.

I never heard this story. Very sad this kid probably didnt even understand the bible enough to be disgracing it that way.
