dialamah Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) Perhaps the tide of accommodation is turning. UK University closes Muslim prayer room. Quote A university has sparked protests after it announced it will close its dedicated Muslim prayer space just a week before Ramadan. The University of East Anglia (UEA) is converting the room, currently used by around 600 students and staff, into what the student union calls a “completely unnecessary” corridor to the library.

I'd be willing to bet apologies and a reversal will be forthcoming by the end of the week. Maybe even a resignation or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems to be the problem with news these days. A (somewhat cursory) glance at the BBC, Guardian and Telegraph pages didn't show the news you posted.

Given the fear some people have of Islam 'taking over' and the resulting hysteria when Muslim prayer spaces are allowed in schools, yeah I think closing them should also make news. Might be reassuring to some people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the West moves to limit Islam's encroachment onto Western institutions of learning, that's a win and should be broadcast as such. Do you disagree?

Goh Shenas Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Islam is in action again killing kafirs. What does it take for the gullible, tree hugging liberal lefties to realise that we are being slaughtered in the name of this religion... Muslims are killing Christians and Jews. This is why they should not be allowed in Canada. Any more proof? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argus Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 This week in Islam, Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim state, and one of its' most 'moderate' ones, demonstrated its tolerance and kindness of spirit by publicly caning a couple of gay guys while a crowd watched, cheered and took pictures. Sarojini Mutia Irfan, a female university student who witnessed the caning, said it was a necessary deterrent. “What they have done is like a virus that can harm people’s morale,” she said. “This kind of public punishment is an attempt to stop the spread of the virus to other communities in Aceh.” http://news.nationalpost.com/news/world/it-was-a-necessary-deterrent-two-men-in-indonesia-publicly-caned-83-times-for-gay-sex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argus Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 This week in Islam, the group ISIS - which 92% of Saudis said 'conforms to the values of Islam and Islamic law' set off a bomb among a group of mostly schoolgirls at a concert hall in Manchester, England, killing 22 and wounding dozens of others. <S> Said a spokesman for ISIS "What? Hey? We were being moderate! All we killed were females, and they're not worth much! Furthermore, they were infidel whores! Why should anyone care? Geez, try to be nice!"</s> http://news.nationalpost.com/news/world/explosion-at-manchester-ariana-grande-show-causes-number-of-confirmed-fatalities 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
