Religion of peace gets another victory via Liberals

[Boz/BoFan 0]

.....and I almost forgot, they will get their publicly funded footbaths in Michigan.....ACLU is conveniently staying out of that one. Please move along, nothing to see here, especially not the slow push of Islam facilitated by self loathing liberals. And please spare the "I dont see where it mentions liberals" posts....the story clearly states the intentions of the SOCIALIST Mayor, i.e. liberal.

Backlash Overdue

Editorial

 

Scotland's National Health Services employees have been told not to eat at their desks next month so they won't offend fasting Muslims. We regret to report this is not an isolated case of Euro cave-in.

 

http://www.ibdeditorials.com/IBDArticles.a...271983050814540

 

In an e-mail "to all senior managers, giving guidance on religious tolerance," the Scotsman said Monday, the NHS Equality and Diversity Officer — a title that alone tells a story — has asked that staff members refrain from eating at their desks, forgo working lunches and make sure that food trolleys are not left in areas where Muslims work.

 

Why? It will soon be Ramadan, an Islamic observance beginning in September during which Muslims fast for 30 days.

 

We have a hard time imagining the NHS or any other European government agency carving out special dispensations for Christians who don't eat meat on Fridays or fast during Lent.

 

What about prayer time for Christians in this nominal Christian nation? Muslims, whose feelings are being protected as if they are an endangered species, have been granted breaks to pray.

 

Despite appearances to the contrary, sensible people can still be found in Europe.

"Frankly, this advice, well meaning as it may be, is total nonsense," Bill Aitken, speaking for the Scottish Conservative Justice Party, told the Scotsman. "This is the sort of thing that can stir up resentments rather than result in good relations."

That is exactly what the forces of diversity, tolerance and political correctness, so busy feeling morally superior, don't understand.

 

As we said, this is not an isolated case. While the Scottish NHS grovels before Islam, across the North Sea in Belgium the mayor of Brussels is refusing to let a group demonstrate on Sept. 11 — remember that date? — against the introduction of Sharia laws in Europe.

 

This is not Nazis marching on Skokie, Ill., but Europeans from Great Britain, Germany and Denmark who are alarmed by the Islamization of their homelands. They want to take their protest through the streets of Brussels to the European Parliament, where they will stop and honor the 9/11 victims with a moment of silence.

Clearly, they are being singled out.

 

The Brussels Journal, a blog of European journalists and writers, reports that Brussels receives 500 and 600 protest applications a year and "with very few exceptions permission is always granted. In the past five years only six applications were turned down."

 

Mayor Freddy Thielemans, however, is saying no; he fears there will be violence between marchers and local Muslims, which isn't exactly a confirmation that Islam is the "religion of peace."

 

There might be more to the story, though. The Brussels Journal says Thielemans "is an atheist who is fond of Muslims, not because he respects religious people, but because he hates Christians."

 

He even publicly celebrated the news of Pope John Paul II's death, the Journal reports.

But Brussels' socialist mayor doesn't have the last word. He can be overruled by the Belgian Council of State. For the sake of free speech, the right to assemble and Europe's future, we hope he is.

Clean feet and fasting are bad. Dirty, stinky feet and gluttony are the American way. Both the Muslims and the Scots have got to go.

Why stop with Scotland then? You're leaving out the practices of more than 200 other countries.

 

Please hurry and inform the masses before it's too late! We must be kept abreast of every event that is not in line with American customs!!

After I read the first post by Boz/Bofan, here is what I seen coming. The liberals are in favor of this behavior and intolerance by the muslims....AGAIN.

 

I am so sick of seeing most of the planet give in to these insane demands muslims want.

 

The most amazing thing is a lot of liberals do not believe in a creator of man. A GOD if you will. They don't want GOD anywhere. From money to court houses to schools. Yet somehow, if it muslims who want to incorporate their GOD into many of these exact same places , well that is just fine with the liberals.

 

How can that be??? WTF is so great about islam that suddenly makes that religion fine? Why do the liberals love/accept islam but hate all other religions with such ferocity???

yup. we gotta take down our nativity scenes and christmas trees but the libs will get on their knees to please these muslims.

[Sho Nuff 720]

WE don't...a few fear mongering alias morons on this board seem to care a whole lot.

 

Next they will equate this to terrorism and bring up quotes from CAIR and misquotes with missing context from the Quaran.

Exactly. We can't teach Creation in schools, but if the Muslims want a footbath, the libs'll build it for 'em.

[famousb 11]

actually,

my first thought after reading it (briefly), was:

If people eat at their desks anyway, are they going to be punished??

 

you can ask me not to eat at my desk so i don't offend someone dumb enough not to eat all day, but that doesn't mean i HAVE to forego doing it...

now, if you make it a rule that I can't eat at my desk, i think that's going to create deeper issues...

[wiffleball 4,790]

Everybody! Pig Roast in the Parking Lot!!!!

You a focking stupid azz. If you think for a second this this isn't happening right here in the USA, then your more focking stupid than I thought.

 

You know your digging deep when you have to pull out the old, tired, overused, Alias crap. That is about as lame as you get. I can see you saying it to a select few once in a while, but it is like a crutch to you. Why are we catering to their rituals? We don't do it for any other religion.

 

Foot basins in Kansas City is just the beginning of it.

[wiffleball 4,790]

As always, I think we're missing the bigger point here; This is SCOTLAND we're talking about.

 

 

Frankly, I don't what excuse they want to pin it on, if his coworkers can keep Seamus McCurleyFry to stop eating Haggis at his desk, it's not entirely a bad thing.

1) Creation has nothing to do with biology class and schools are able to teach it as a theology class. But don't let that stop your ranting.

 

2) The article is about Scotland.

 

This is what makes you an idiot.

 

 

 

And I see gocolts is playing his usual game.

 

1) Label everyone who disagrees with you a "lib"

 

2) call them names

 

3) make a series of strawman arguments.

 

 

It's right out of the GOP handbook.

 

One question though, since Rove is leaving Bush will you still beat off to his picture?

 

Oh and before you start the "you ###### libs..." rant....... I'm not a lib.

[Boz/BoFan 0]

Liberals make me laugh. They excuse away thousands of stories from around the world and right here in America which all point in the same direction but let it snow 1/8th of an inch less in Telluride over an entire ski season and its focking 100% infallible proof that man made global warming will kill us in 50 years.

So what exactly would you like all of your fellow geeks to do about the goings on in Scotland. Seriously, should I stay up at night worrying about Muslims taking over? To what end?

[Sho Nuff 720]

You a focking stupid azz. If you think for a second this this isn't happening right here in the USA, then your more focking stupid than I thought.

 

Funny, I thought the quote clearly said Scotland...perhaps you can point me to a link where Scotland become a part of the focking USA?

Maybe if it were not for the same ignorant hacks posting the same ignorant crap time and time again, I would not have to use that line. But it pretty much fits when something is posted and the likes of Boz and Angry White Male chime in with their expected ridiculous crap...(oh, and you too)

 

Why are "we"? Again, I think this was in focking Scotland. WE are not doing anything.

 

Foot basins in Kansas City is just the beginning of it.

 

If they are publicly funded I disagree with them. Other than that...put all the foot basins you want out there, I really don't give a rat's ass.

 

Then again, this article was not about foot basins...as usual, a completely different subject gets spun out of control by one of you fear mongering morons.

No. It wasn't. It was about one overzealous HR person in one government office - in Scotland.

It is clear now that you can not even follow a simple discussion. I didn't say a focking thing about Scotland becoming a part of the USA.

[Sho Nuff 720]

I follow it just fine. An article about an office in Scotland was posted...and some possible protest in Belgium.

 

Somehow, to you, that equated to things in this country, so a reasonable person can only surmise that you must think Scotland is now a territory of the US.

Perhaps you need a geography lesson as to where Scotland is?

 

 

btw...I found it is more fun to just mock you and your buddies when you go on these idiot rants about Islam...it beats shoving logic and facts down your throat only to have you all still live in denial. The saddest thing...no matter if I mock you or post facts refuting your crap, you and your ilk seem to post the same ignorant responses.

[akaoni 0]

Bullsh!t!

 

These guys are in constant terror. Scared weak Muslim countries like Syria and Iraq, scared of tin pot Socialiist leaders like Chavez, scared that they might have to sit next to a brown person on a bus, or maybe hire them to work on their lawns. Scared of scientists who tell them that their opposition to evolution might be misguided, or that their consumption habits might actually have a negative impact on the environment. First and last conservatives are scared. They're scared of change, plain and simple.

 

To that end, they demonize every group or individual who might threaten them. Footbaths don't threaten the American way of life. Neither does acknowledgement and respect of another's religious views. Come on guys, there's nothing to be afraid of.

[gocolts 300]

Are you a democrat?? SOME people happen to have strong convictions and don't change their stand every time a new poll comes out. You say that Boz and Angry White Male and myself chime in with ridiculous crap. You crap is far more ridiculous and down right uninformed. Your only defense is "This is in Scotland." It everywhere, including right here in the USA. This is just one example how islam is trying to force their religion on everybody everywhere.

Nope...not a democrat...nice try though...you think that is an original comment?

 

Yes, you chime in with ridiculous crap...look at every thread about Islam lately. One article gets posted, then you and your buddies go off on something completely unfockingrelated to the article.

 

Uninformed? I guess knowing more about a topic than you, understanding the topic far more than you, and generally having a grasp of facts and logic as compared to you makes me uniformed.

 

My defense to you whining about this and the USA is that this is one office in focking Scotland.

 

You keep saying it is everywhere...yet where are your links to that.

 

How is what this office did "islam forcing their religion" on people? NO

 

If an airport puts footbaths in it...is that forcing you to use them? NO

 

Furthermore, your views here are completely hypocritical to the arguments against pulling Christian items out of society that you and the right like to whine about. You make the claims that it is not forcing the religion on people (which I agree with) yet you think these things are trying to force Islam onto people. Why is that?

 

 

FOCK...I should just go back to mocking you...its more fun.

[gocolts 300]

You sir, just refuse to believe your own eyes. Either that or you don't pay ANY attention what is happening in our country and across the globe. This shiat is all related and you know it. Muslims force their religion on all segments of society.

 

The University of Michigan at Dearborn is planning to build foot baths for Muslim students who wash their feet before prayer.

 

An elementary school in San Diego created an extra recess period for Muslim pupils to pray.

 

At George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., Muslim students using a "meditation space" laid out Muslim prayer rugs and separated men and women in accordance with their Islamic beliefs.

 

I know you just mock people, cause that is all you have. You are the one who lives in denial, and everyone can see it by simply reading your posts.

[gocolts 300]

Now that is funny.
