500 Butthurt Imams finally protest
May 20^th, 2013 at 6:28pm

Over 500 Imams started protesting, about time.

They were not protesting about the bigotry and lack of human rights showed to atheists in Islamic countries.

They were not protesting about Islamic terror

They were not protesting about their blasphemy laws that persecute non muslims

They were not protesting about death for apostasy in Islamic countries.

They were not protesting about the child brides that are rampant in Islamic parts of the world.

They were not protesting about the death penalty for homosexuals in the Islamic part of the world

They were protesting about gay marriage... Grin

Given the continual spread of Islam throughout Europe, the clash between Muslims and the liberal left should be inevitable. The gays versus the Muslims here is one such example, which should become more frequent.

It's a classic case of where the slogans of 'tolerance' and 'equality' show absolutely no foresight. The left-wing trendies have imported people who are absolutely hostile to their political interests, and now they are reaping what they sowed.

So, you'd prefer that people preached intolerance and hatred of immigrants?

Some Muslims hate Gays. So, why should all Muslims be blamed for those attitudes?

Some Christians hate Gays, yet we don't blame all Christians for those attitudes.

Looks like some people like displaying their prejudices. Grin

The acceptance of gays by Islam and Christianity is the exception more than the rule. You'd think a sensible policy would be to import like-minded people. Call it prejudice or whatever slogan you trendies want, it isn't going to change the fact that Islam is generally hostile to gays.

so how do you think the trendies could have displayed more "foresight" Misty? Demand that muslims be banned from expressing their democratic right to protest peacefully?

Do you think the trendies just love muslims for their beliefs - or that perhaps they defend the right of *ANY* group - muslim or not - to not be vilified and discriminated?

Left-wing trendies display no foresight. They carry the slogans of 'tolerance' and 'equality' around in their head without analysing the possible repercussions of such a policy.

An interesting question now is: Are the left-wing trendies going to be tolerant of Islam's hostility toward gays? Is that free speech?
Whenever a white conservative has reservations about gays they get called homophobes and bigots. I wonder if the 'useful idiots' will use such terms toward Muslims?

Interesting times ahead for Europe.

The first time over 500 imams protest something it is gay marriage of all things.

The muslim majority countries of Mauritania,Saudi Arabia,North Sudan,Yemen and Iran have the death penalty for homosexuals,in Nigeria and Somalia the death penalty applies in some regions.
In Saudi Arabia where Islam originated and the direction muslim face when praying they chop your head off if you are found to be homosexual.
www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_and_Islam

In Iran they hang homosexuals,Ahmadinejad did say there are no poofs in Iran, about 4000 gays have been executed since the Islamic revolution, read the amnesty international reports on human rights in Iran.

These teenagers were hung for being gay in Iran
www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmoud_Asgari_and_Ayaz_Marhoni

The muslims will vote for Tony before they vote for the parties that allow gay marriage.

Now I'm not a big fan of religion, but natural law is something we should align more closely with.

You seem to be 'not aware' of an awful lot of things, Gandy.

Islamists and the left are both political entities and have a very obvious shared grounding: a hatred of the west and western capitalism. They both blame everything on western culture, history, capitalism. That's why you never hear a lefty bed-wetter speaking out against Islamist - he would have to defend what the Islamist is attacking.

So your trendy 'unawareness' just means means that you have never heard of a lefty defending the west and western culture and western capitalism.
D'oh!!! WHo has?

My point is, we have a group of muslims exercising their democratic right to peacefully protest, and your response is, the "left-wing trendies" display no foresight. So what should they have done? Does allowing this protest to go ahead mean they necessarily agree with their point of view? No. Does it mean they can, and do criticise their anti-gay views? Absolutely.

Thats may be true in some instances, but broadly speaking I don't believe its the case. What you people fail to acknowledge is that there is a very fine line between attacking people for their views, and being outright prejudice and discriminatory to those people. But to say these "lefties" never criticise muslims, or any other minority, for expressing bigoted views - is complete nonsense.

And by the way, peacefully protesting against gay marriage is not inherently islamophobic or bigoted - and its certainly not confined to the islamic community.
