 Muslim Day Parade Met With Protesters
Muslim Day Parade Met With Protesters
The 22nd Annual Muslim United American Muslim Day parade in New York was peaceful but was met with protesters Sunday. The odd thing is that the parade was held the last day of the month for 20 years but was changed to Sept 9th this year. Some felt that was insulting. As was the route that took them near Ground Zero.Accusations have also been made against some of the paraders of supporting terrorism. picked by 2manyusernames 1 year ago

 Tennessee plant drops Labor Day observance for Muslim holiday
Tennessee plant drops Labor Day observance for Muslim holiday
But wait. Don't get all uppity. Despite the views of obnoxious bigots, this makes perfect sense. They are allowed 8 holidays by labor contract. 700 of the 1200 employees are Muslim and wanted Eid al-Fitr. To make up for the extra holiday, one was removed. picked by 2manyusernames 4 months ago

 Anti-Muslim sentiment prevalent in US
Anti-Muslim sentiment prevalent in US
Calls flooded Jerry Klein's radio talk show when he suggested that Muslims be forced to display some identifying tattoo or badge. While his statement was a hoax, the plentiful comments agreeing with him and then some, were frighteningly real. picked by ybne1else 2 years ago

Episcopalians have first Muslim priest
Okay, naming a homosexual as a Episcopalian priest was fine. That made sense. Being a homosexual doesn't preclude you from being a priest. This is different. How can a muslim be a christian priest? picked by 2manyusernames 1 year ago

Muslim sex offenders could opt out of treatment programme 'because it's against their faith'
Muslim sex offenders are asking to be let off a prison treatment programme on religious grounds. Rapists, paedophiles and other dangerous attackers are expected to discuss their crimes with other inmates as a condition of release. But Muslim prisoners complain that criminals should not have to talk about their offences - a "legitimate Islamic position", according to Ahtsham Ali, the Pris... read full post picked by AutumnLotus 7 months ago

Muslim opening prayer at Iowa Statehouse raises concerns
This doesn't appear to be a case of "Islamophobia". When translated among the prayers made by the Imam to the Iowa Legislature were statements like: "Victory over those who disbelieve," and "Protection from the great Satan" Those who disbelieve is most of us. Islam has long called America "The Great Satan" picked by 2manyusernames 10 months ago

 "Liberal Muslims" It Is Not A Oxymoron
"Liberal Muslims" It Is Not A Oxymoron
The launch of two liberal Muslim groups is indicative of a corrective mechanism taking place among British Muslims. An effort to show that not all or even most Muslims are fanatics. They want to show a different way and are not afraid to speak out even when threatened.Even formerly violent Muslims wish to seek a peaceful co-existentence. picked by 2manyusernames 7 months ago

 Muslim Students Want Classes Rescheduled to fit in Prayer Times
Muslim Students Want Classes Rescheduled to fit in Prayer Times
International Muslim students have asked universities to change class times so they can attend prayers. They also want a female-only area for Muslim students to eat and relax.

In a rare moment of sanity and backbone, at least one institution has rejected their demands, arguing that the university is secular and it does not want to set any sort of precedent or special treatment. picked by 2manyusernames 9 months ago
