Scotland Yard commander Mak Chishty, Britain's most senior Muslim police officer, kicked off a debate by saying he is aware of young children saying things like celebrating Christmas is haram, or forbidden.

Caller Michael, a Christian, says a childs soul is more important than acknowledging other religious festivals.
