You are right on target! How can we let this religious crap under the guise of "intelligent design" in our schools, which gives this student to flaunt his equally ridiculous beliefs.

Kids should be made to wear uniforms. Uniforms purchased by the schools and local government.

And the uniforms should only come in certain sizes, so that overweight kids will have to lose weight, or be kicked out until they're healthy, and the same that students who are too thin will be forced to attain a healthy weight.

Students could also be identified by a number, such that teachers will not be able to discriminate or reward based on gender or race.

uh the same reason muslims wear turbins.

are you serious?

maybe because a freakin costume doesnt explain in words, like a prayer would, the persons religion. if you dont like the costume, dont look. but if you dont like the prayer, dont listen?

"...how can a person wearing something promoting their religion be allowed?"

Like crosses & crucifix's? Those are a couple of religious idols that are worn everyday to public schools and they are allowed, regardless how grossly offensive they are.

(grossly offensive? yes! such was a means of torture and death and I for one have never understood why some people praise and worship what is basically a torture/murder instrument - the cross...I mean, had Jesus been hung, would people be wearing nooses around their necks? Gallows with human fruit hanging from steeples all across America? Or how about had he been impaled a la Prince Vlad's favorite game? Imagine all the little images of Jesus we'd see hanging around peoples necks from little gold chains...twisted in agony with a greased pole working it's way through the rectum...

Yes, celebrating grotesque murder and turning it into a false idol is disgusting, sick and really warped)

I believe those ceremonial knives are Sikh, not Muslim.
