Duke is also a university that ran Chik-Fil-A off of campus for the anti-gay comments from a Chik-Fil-A executive. However the most vocal anti-gay group on the Duke campus is the Islamic association. We don't see Duke running the Islamic association off of campus for being vocally anti-gay.
Islam on campus
- Thread starter gwb-trading
- Start date
wouldn't that be good...A True debate on campus about women's and gay rights between the Christians and the Moslems. The whole thing would probably get demonstrated and shouted down and never be allowed to continue. Free speech doesn't apply to those who so obviously disagree with us. If we can't stop them with words, we will stop them with actions...and if that doesn't work, we will go to all out war, but it will be a justified war.
It seems the more prestigious the university, the more inane its admistrators are.
Other than the obvious influence of Arab money though, I am baffled at how muslims managed to climb the PC heirarchy so quickly. The only group that clealry outranks them is homo's. And how liberals can avoid the obvious contradiction between championing homo rights and the quasi-religion that most severely represses homo's baffles me.
The big losers in all this ironically are the group that had a lot to do with PC in the first place, Jews. They have gone from being a PC-protected group to virtually being seen as oppressors.

yeah, but we have a lot of money...didn't start out that way, just keep it in the family. Good old fashioned Christian family values. And make somebody a better offer than they can get from the Pope. We are not too worried about Moslems, we have been fighting them for a thousand years.
If forced to make a choice, where would you rather live...Tel Aviv or Damascus? Brooklyn or Yemen?
thanks for the concern, but we don't need your pity
"And how liberals can avoid the obvious contradiction between championing homo rights and the quasi-religion that most severely represses homo's baffles me."
Trying to find a balance and establish cooperation among many different opinions is much harder than simply hating every kind but your kind. Failure is to be expected, welcomed even, since it indicates you are trying.

From yesterday's National Post.
"“Islam is a religion of peace,” they say, as if we hadn’t heard that one before. Nothing they say is going to sound sincere unless they are willing to condemn the moral cancers that are rampant in their culture, such as polygamy, stoning, honour killing, child brides, genital mutilation, sharia law, death to apostates, anti-Semitism, female segregation and a host of other disgusting practices that find their way into Western democracies. If they truly want to honour Charlie Hebdo, they need to become less defensive, think critically and speak out against all the barbaric aspects of Muslim culture."
Pretty decent commentary and points in this and other letters.

no kidding, Peace is a lot harder than War
It would be interesting to hear what the Duke lesbo association thinks about this. Between the hatred of homos and the subjection of women demanded by Sharia, those calls to prayer would surely send a shiver down their spines.
Should be interesting when a mooselimb walks up to a bull dyke, demands she don a burka and asks whether her man knows she is out in public.
or
or, they could just think independently and not really care what some religion or political party thinks. Religions and political parties are for small minded people who need others to think just like them. And all you will ever get out of any religion or some political party is a small minded opinion. And it all comes down to money. If you want to find the truth, try to make a profitable sale. Whether it is forex or a used car or world peace. The moment of truth is when a buyer and a seller agree on a price.
Very good observations. The left has backed itself into a corner with this "tolerate their intolerance" idiocy. Frankly, I'm not surprised.
