Re: More terrorism in UK
To continue something discussed last time...
From today's Guardian: Faith leaders and representatives of civic and community groups came together under the banner of “One London One Community†at the East London mosque to condemn Saturday’s attack and call for unity. Muhammad Habibur-Rahman, the mosque’s chair, said Londoners were united against “those who try to divide usâ€. He described the perpetrators as “evil terrorists†who espoused a “twisted narrative and perversion of the religion of Islamâ€. The mosque had stopped extremists at the door, he said, but they “continue to harass out worshippersâ€. He added: "Their hatred of mainstream Muslims rivals that of the extreme right." Mehri Niknam of the Joseph Interfaith Foundation, which comprises Jews and Muslims, welcomed condemnations of recent attacks but added: "To condemn is only half way. We must also actively confront loudly and clearly." |

Meanwhile in reality, let's set up some more faith schools to bring people together.

Re: More terrorism in UK
I discovered yesterday that my ex-wife got caught up in all that. She was on a night out in a bar in Borough (ended up locked in the kitchen - took her drink with her!). Had she popped out for a smoke a couple of minutes later than she did, she would, apparently have found herself facing a bloke with a big knife (who appeared outside the bar).
She later, apparently, gave grief to a guy in the street who was berating a black guy and telling him to "go back where her came from". Not sure I believe that bit. From what I remember of my ex, she is prone to panic. She certainly sounded shaken when I spoke with her last night. |

More than 130 religious leaders use unusual sanction to express disgust at murders ‘contravening Islam’ and vow to root out extremism. |

the traditional Islamic prayer – a ritual normally performed for every Muslim regardless of their actions Not being flippant...just wondering if it might make some less likely to do these things. |

Re: More terrorism in UK
There doesn't seem to be a doctrine of forgiveness in operation in Islam. Perhaps the Christians should step in, they're big on turning the other cheek.

Perhaps if it were a Christian terrorist, the worthy church ministers and bishops would also be hypocritical enough to deny him/her a burial. Who knows. That was my point. There is no shortage of hypocrisy and irrationality in either of these two nonsensical faiths. |

My point was that both religions are ridiculous. I don't have an in-depth knowledge of the Islam virus, however, the the actions of over hundred Islamic leaders who refuse to bury one of their dead (albeit wicked terrorists) suggest that there is no principle of forgiveness, as their is in Christianity.

The recent Paris incident didn't seem to get much coverage. Botched or second thoughts from someone not wholly committed? |
