Christian and Jewish songs will be performed as well, but the Ramadan song is getting all the attention.It started with a post on Facebook. A parent of a ninth-grade Blaine choir student posted the lyrics to the song the choir has been practicing. When others learned students would be singing the song on Thursday, the comments took a turn.One person posted,  No child should be forced to sing a song about the Muslims and the religion of hatred. Another parent, who didn t want to be identified, told WCCO phone that considering the recent events in Paris and San Bernardino, singing a song about Allah would be  insensitive.
