Her mother sounds like a lovely tolerant woman (not).

Do you mean to say that you haven't phoned the media,cat?

It's up to the institutions to be welcoming to whoever comes to visit them too, isn't it? If someone came to visit my local place of worship I wouldn't mind at all if they wore something associated with another religion.

Exactly, I don't think that wearing something over your head for an hour warrants a newspaper article!

It is just a question of 'when in Rome......'
I wouldn't ask people to remove their shoes if they came into my house, I think it rude. However if someone asks me to remove my shoes before I go into their house I don't debate the subject-I just take off my shoes!
