Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for August 05, 2014

Put your track shoes on.

Brace yourself, Arnie.

Be sure to have some toothpicks to keep your eyes open! ;)

Oh, good grief, I hope I haven’t left anybody out but I did not mentioned the Muslim community which is also very strong and active. The Muslims and the Hindus do not get on very well together but somehow or another we all manage to rub along harmoniously. So, we have Mosques, Hindu Temples, Catholic and Anglican Cathedrals, Methodists, Baptists and many other denominations as well.

That is why Archbishop Desmond Tuto coined the phrase The Rainbow Nation. We all mix together in the workplace, in the shopping malls and now in the schools as well, although many Muslim parents prefer to educate their children in Muslim schools that provide an Islamic education in the afternoon. Thanks to Nelson Mandela we are all learning to lay aside our prejudices and work together for our nation.

@JoanHelen Thanks so much for your comments! I love that I can learn while reading the comics!

Agreed Evie.

Brace yourself Arnold!
