Muslims in Germany demand the right to make the University of Berlin into a mosque

Im referring to the word banned. If you're not sure, call the school up on Tuesday and ask.

 

I don't watch posted videos in general, but in reading other articles, they want a place on campus to pray.

Misleading thread title about an interesting issue. I don't see why a university has to provide a place to pray. Poop, sure. Breastfeed, maybe. Get coffee, absolutely.

I don't think my (incredibly liberal) university in America has a place where a huge group could pray five times a day or whatever. We have a little non-denominational meditation room that anyone can use but it probably wouldn't even fit 15 prone muslims at a time.

 

Repped

 

Who cares, they're Germans, let the Germans deal with it.

I don't care for people who demand prayer spaces at working places, but it's not an unusual request and it's not asking the university to be turned into a mosque, you drama queen.

 

You haven't read or heard or watched any of the hundreds of cases of Christian Americans crying about praying in school?

 

Oh boy. You should do some research. Just Google 'school prayer'.

I bet you the first ten hits are going to be about Christians demanding the right for public school prayers before a single Muslim is mentioned

I just find it mildly amusing that people like Space Ghost and Falcon Talon come in here to berate these Muslims for a prayer space where they will PRIVATELY pray while they will gladly support and defend the Christians that want to hold public prayers in public school classrooms.

 

Wait what? I came in here and did what?

I repped space ghost for calling out Sweet Lou on his double standard.

Here's my take. It's Germany. Just like I said on that Chinese commercial thread.

BUT If you want my take on religion in school in the good old U. S. of A,, whatever is decided, make it the same for everyone.

 

All hail the great Spaghetti monster, which is just as made up as the rest of em.

It is time to start deporting those that are not willing to join in a society, if they want to recreate something that never worked in the first place send em packing.

You are confused over two separate issues :
faith practice & compliance with the law. The 1st is a personal matter regardless how you feel about it , the other is a mandatory obligation to everyone. If the school feel it is better to prohibit religious facilities on campus premises then that should be it. For those students they should look for plan B. renting a place near by would be one of the alternatives

 

The article used that word and I think it's a legitimate word to describe the situation in preventing school officials from using a particular word. Not sure what your problem is.

 

pathological liar he is

 

easy call : it is an obsession , you did't get over him, so addictive this Sweet_lou-4 2 to you

 

Screw them too - separation of church and state is there for a reason, if they want to pray in school go to a religious school.

it happens daily over here, and the reason we don't know about it is because those people just ask to use a room for 5 minutes and do their stuff in private, and then leave. Don't think there is an official room like it was at my uni but my buds would just go there and come out.

These people protesting are making too big a deal imo

 

so.. you are a stalker to those who finished elementary school , very professional indeed
