Univeristy Muslims pray on road because don't want to share room

[Will E Worm]

The should go back to the Middle East. :hatsoff:

just like christianity! and as supadupafly was saying any religion. irrational people may use any belief (religious or not) to commit atrocities or act in a exclusionary manner.

NO! :nono:

 

[Supafly]

Yes

:hammer:

 

[Will E Worm]

NO :hammer: :tongue:

Knowing that, you should extrapolate that it is then the extremists at fault and no the religion of Islam par se.

Ignorance is the biggest evil. A few idiots do NOT represent the faith of Islam, the Muslim community or people of Muslim heritage.

As long as the majority stay silent, I will absolutely critique them relentlessly. Why aren't there more Salman Rushdie's out there? Is it because the majority of Muslims are peaceful and tolerant? Absolutely not. So my position stands. I think the religion is an evil, vile and backward religion.

Idiocy is spreading. Praying to a rock? Go learn some stuff man, you know nothing. For the record, there are currently 3 Muslim nations under the domain of non Muslim armies [Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine], no Muslim armies are in non Muslim lands.

Who is violent again?

When did I call Muslims violent or imply that non-Muslims weren't? Gee, it kind of looks like you are prejudging anybody who calls out Islam.

And yes, they pray to a rock. But you can have your magical Black Stones, pedophile prophets, genies and rib women. Just don't be shocked when people point out how silly and ridiculous it all is.

faith group shares its prayer space. Can a Hindu do pooja in a Synagogue? No. Opposition to this is just racism.

No it's not "racism". First of all, Islam is not a race. Second, it's a University, not a mosque or synagogue. They are free to pay in any mosque which is free on university's authority or responsibility. It sucks that idiots got violent in the first place, but the secular university chose to designate one area for prayer to avoid future incident. If students don't like it, they can study elsewhere or pray on the streets as they already do. I'm sure Allah is impressed by their steadfast dedication.

Allah akbar.

Interesting but let's make the difference between radical and moderate muslims, wahabites, chiites and sunnites are more or less radical muslims, the others muslims are not radical.

Well, it's definitely complicated. Ever since the a Turkish tribe became hostile in the Levant (Holy Land/Palestine) in the eleventh century the situation has been dirty for a while. If they would have just remained out of the region when they did we would probably not be in the middle of a world about to kill each other in the name of religion.

It is funny though that jihad is a term that derived from the crusades almost a millenia ago, but it was not even a term utilized in a warped way like it is today until a lot of what unfolded recently such as our actions in the region. They blame the West for all their ills, and Israel and the West's support of Israel has a lot to do with it. As far as goofy religions go, if people think what Christians adhere to is screwy, they should really read Islam for Dumbies or something, because that is one fucked up religion (not even getting into the factionalism of it: i.e., Sunni's, Shi'ites, Arabs, Turks, etc.). You want fucked up, just look at the daily killings in Iraq over Sunni's and Shi'ites. And people think Christianity is so bad...LOL...friggin' morons.

 

[oscabares]

Not to mention that they don't want to share the WORLD with people from other religions.

Kudo for you!

Yes, people need to identify that wahhabist Islam is massively different from mainstream Islam. Wahabbists, with their literalism, their radicalism, are over represented in news coverage re: Muslim issues. There backers [Saudi basically] has huge funds allowing them to promote themselves.

Wahabbists are losers and I back any action against them.

just like christianity!

Yeah like 300 years go. Christianity reformed itself, purged it's violent ways and de-politicized through separation of church and state.

Islam is the state, islam is the law. Islam is intolerant, violent and politicized.
Islam is against everything progressive. Islam is against modernism.

Guess you haven't been to Northern Ireland lately.


Really what is this debate about? They had a problem, instead of making a big deal about it, they just went somewhere else and did what they wanted to and didn't bother anyone...and people are still pissed off about it. What more do you want? For us all to hold hands and sing Kumbiya?

Also I see that no one bothered to comment on the fact that the reason they were moved to a "multi-faith" room was because their own room got shut down after the Muslims were attacked by what appears to be a white power gang. Now who is the racist?

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

I'm going to move to Iran, enroll at Tehran University and start a Christian Student's Association. What are the odds I would live to see 30?

Fuck, what we need as westerners is to grow a pair and say enough is enough. I'm sick and freaking tired of these people demanding every friggin' right in the world. Give them an inch and eventually they'll take a mile...meh.

Demanding every right? Man, they already have every right. What they want is appeasement funded by tax or tuition. And yes, I'm not talking about all Muslims. Just the assholes who make a fuss over their stolen myths.

And if you go back over the OP link you'll see they actually broke the university rules for them, as they are a secular university.

Secular, shmecular.
