    If push comes to shove, the Methodist Church should turn WGHS into a private school and shun government subsidies. Next, it should give admission to Christian students only. This will settle the issue once and for all.

  • CONTRADICTION GALORE 14 hours ago

    Exactly, that is what we want to see. Take your school back and stop taking goverment money. The we know this is not a public but a private entity. When you do that not a single muslim student will be placed in the school.
