This is beyond ludicrous

The article bears all the hallmarks of being bollocks to me. In all probability Either the paper has misreported to hype the story or its an outright fabrication. For example This Islamic Jurisprudence[^] site would be offensive to Muslims due to the fact it states you can't eat "pork". I surrounded by Muslims and have yet to meet one offended by the mere mention of the word pork. Still, the paper has achieved its ends: it's gained some notoriety by causing outrage, everyone gets to go "tchuh the Muslims are at it again" and another anti-islamic flame-war will probably start. I'm heartily sick of this kind of shit. [edit] And there it is, the usual flame-war, and it article is all over the net.

A Dead ringer for Kate Winslett[^]Looks pretty genuine to me: La familia de un estudiante musulmán ha denunciado en la comisaría de La Línea de la Concepción (Cádiz) a José Reyes Fernández, profesor del instituto Menéndez Tolosa, porque asegura que fue insultado por el profesor al cuestionar sus creencias religiosas[^] More if you want: http://www.google.com/search?q=Jos%C3%A9+Reyes+Fern%C3%A1ndez+jamon&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a[^] And yes, this will have been hyped, but the fact is it did happen. Why do WE not have the right to protect OUR culture?

Where can I join? :-D And even if not for what it stands, just because of the beautyful acronym you created!

As an Atheist I am offended by any reference to religion. I want all Muslims, Christians, Jews and [Insert fuller list of Religious Communities Here], to get the fuck off my planet and go live in space pixie land with the tooth fairy and the easter bunny. Who do I report this to?

At one time or the other I did indeed consider moving to pixie land, but I'm really offended by the easter bunny. It's rumored he's a child molester. :-D

:thumbsup:Nice. I'll draw up a poster as soon as I've finished up with my aggressive leaflet campaign for the Campaign for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society.

It might well be a full, fair reporting of the facts but I doubt it. It more than likely has a grain of truth in it, but without being in the room when it happened we just can't know exactly what happened, and the context is important.

You do realise that just repeating the same information doesn't make it more or less likely to be true? Take a look at the most published books in the world, you'll see what I mean.

Fact? No, you weren't there, you don't know what happened. This World War Two Bomber Found on the Moon[^] was reported in British version of the National Enquirer (with added breasts). Is it true? Any source needs to be evaluated for trustworthiness, my bullshit-o-meter is off the scale on this one.

Where did I say this (are you Spanish BTW)? Point to the exact point in my post. My main beef was with the demonising a particular group, and the inevitable ill-thought out reaction that this has provoked on the Internet. I'd argue that one of the main backbones of European thought is a rational and critical perspective. If you we do not adhere to that we are betraying our culture.

My favourite comment on the article: "This is so STUPID, shoot the little bastard. Why should the teacher endure this kind of shit?"

If you have issues with my comments, you take 'em up directly. ;)
"I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. In my youth. I have observed in different countries, that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer." ~ Benj Franklin

A Dead ringer for Kate Winslett[^]as this is Spain, surely the fact that for half the last 1500 years it was a Muslim country should be taken into consideration?

Only if you think invasion, and the taking of a country be force, an appropriate way of conducting international relations. Manuel II Palaiologos described it well.

So its not only the UK which is ludicrously PC. France Belgium and Holland have got it right banning the veil. We should all do the same. And as for porc, tell me, do plugs in sinks offend the poor lad aswell? After all it is forbidden in the Koran to wash in standing water.
