Bullshit lowing, just BULL SHIT.

How the hell is allowing someone to practice their religion freely, appeasing the terrorists?

In fact it's the opposite to appeasement - if the terrorists are saying "everyone should be a muslim" - we are saying "everyone should have the freedom to practice whatever religion they wish".
Actually, what is BULLSHIT is you posting saying I insinuated that "allowing someone to practice their religion freely, appeasing the terrorists".

I defy you to post where I said that.

I also think it is funny that you mention "terrorists". IN FACT I think, YOU are the first person in this thread to make the connection or mention terrorism and religion in the same sentence. Imagine that. Which religion did you have in mind by the way?
I define those sections of the Islamic world that wish to see us all adopting the Islam faith and laws as terrorists.

And, if you're not talking about those people, then what the fuck are you talking about?

Oh, and I'm talking about all religions.

well you got a problem becausr these links were from sites off of google that braddock said were "pro-Islam". So I dunno what to tell ya, but I am assuming all who believe in this are terrorists based on your opinion. I do gather that since this is a "pro_Islam" site that more than just a small minority believe in this.

If there is any chance you could argue against what I actually say, I would greatly appreciate it.

Also while you are at it, please tell me your take on what I posted about ALL of the Arab/Islamic nations in the UN unanimously voted to police all  news media and individuals that speak out against Islam, while the EU nations refused to vote on this resolution.

Do you not think that if these Islamic/Arab nations would spend as much time, zeal and energy fixing the problems within their religion as they do trying to stiffle people from exposing it, they would get much more support from outsiders?
In which case, why do you use the word 'appeasement'? What issues do you have?

And I think all the zeal and energy is being expended in factional bickering.

All of this coming from your beloved tolerant Islamic nations. It is indefensable, no wonder you say "so what". Because you can not maintain your argument about these countries and their religion and defend this action.
Curtail free speech and expression .... in Islamic countries. Phew. I thought for a second that one of your irrational fears was going to have an impact on my life or on global politics.... /wipes sweat from brow
Ya mean as much impact on your life as the Israeli Palestinian conflict?........ Also since it is 100% of Islamic nations in the UN pretty much stomps your notion that it is a small minority of them doesn't it.

Well then if you are talking about people who do not give a shit what anyone else does,, or believes, then you are not talking about Islam, because it is CLEAR even on the "pro_Islam" sites that Islam CLEARLY must overcome these non-believers. It is the DUTY of EVERY MUSLIM to JIHAD!!. That is from one of Braddocks's   PRO-ISLAM sites. So again your opinion and Islamic facts and beliefs are in conflict.

Jihad = struggle.

In that sense there are a lot of things that could be defined as 'struggle'. Teaching people that Islam is a much more moderate religion than they think is a 'jihad'. There is also (according to the local Muslim community leader anyway), an eternal internal 'jihad' against evil/sin.

Obviously youy are not reading what Braddock defended as Pro-Islam

Taken from the previous link

"Islam is concerned with the question of jihad and the drafting and the mobilisation of the entire Umma into one body to defend the right cause with all its strength than any other ancient or modern system of living, whether religious or civil. The verses of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of Muhammad (PBUH) are overflowing with all these noble ideals and they summon people in general (with the most eloquent expression and the clearest exposition) to jihad, to warfare, to the armed forces, and all means of land and sea fighting."

If we had both Christian extremists going around killing people as well as Islamic ones then there would be some point to that, however we don't.

But, and here's the key point - that doesn't make one of those faiths violent and the other not, individual people are violent, not systems of faith.

I thought this thread was about how a decision to allow Muslims to practice their faith whilst at school is appeasing them and just one step closer to the Islamisation of the entire world.

I have. Allowing people to practice their religion freely is in no way "appeasement" and allowing them space to pray is precisely "religious neutrality".

It does not go against German Basic Law according to the Judge, and he should know.

the article you linked to wrote:

The judge, however, cited German Basic Law, which allows for freedom of religion. This basic right doesn't only apply to internal freedom, but to external freedom, the justice decided. This includes the freedom to pray, including Muslim prayer.
Or did you not read past the headline, again?

No problem with that. The fact that the school is forced to entertain it, and support it, is the problem, and incidentally why it is going to court.

OP's website wrote:

According to the court, the Muslim student sought the ruling because his religion requires him to pray five times a day at specific times. Yet the school had not allowed him to pray, citing its constitutional neutrality law, which stops the state from identifying with any given religion in a public institution.
So, actually, I think I'll critisize the school- letting somebody do something on their free time does not mean that you support it. Just providing a free room, which is what was asked for, does not mean supporting, appeasing, etc.


Please, which law is it "going against" again?

Oh, wait:

B.Schuss wrote:

care to explain what law of the land was changed ? the court had to balance freedom of religion and separation of church and state, both important parts of the constitution here in germany. The court made a ruling on the immediate case ( which I am totally satisfied with, btw ), and a higher court will make a ruling on the overall issue within a year.

As long as those are not part of the school activities, it is every student's right to practice their religion freely. The school doesn't chose any religion over another, but will provide a neutral room for everyone to pray in, at times when school activities are not disrupted, i.e. during lunch breaks or whatever is appropriate.

From my point of view, that is a very good compromise, until a higher court makes a ruling.
