| 6 year old Tyson Horlang, suspended. |
The North American has learned from a distraught parent that a 6 year old student of Immanuel Christian Academy in London, Ontario was sent home today and suspended from the private school effective immediately for wishing his friends Happy Holidays.
Denise Horlang said her son Tyson had previously been warned last year for a rough drawing that resembled the Jewish menorah during arts class.
When reached for comment, ICA principal Todd Stockton told The North American that "there is no place in our school for, frankly pagan and secular greetings of any kind," noting that students are also forbidden from wishing each other a "Good Morning." The phrase "God bless you" is preferred. "The student in question will not be allowed back to the Academy unless he and his family appear before a private meeting of the board, where they will be censured," added Stockton. "We have to take this country back."

What a terrible experience for a little boy! I agree all this is getting out of hand. Now if we just banned Christmas altogether, we could avoid these painful situations and keep church and state separate as God intended.
