A story based on the Three Little Pigs has been turned down from (Becta, the government's educational technology agency) annual awards because the subject matter could offend Muslims.I think Becta has just given sufficient grounds for its own abolishment.
Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.

ReplyDeleteThe Muslim community are always offended. Everything offends Muslim, apparently.
